Tea

Tea brings a clean, slightly dry, and gently aromatic quality to perfumery that feels calming, civilized, and subtly elegant. As a general note category, tea encompasses green, black, white, and oolong varieties, each bringing a different character — from the bright grassiness of green tea to the smoky depth of lapsang souchong.

All share a certain quietness and refinement. Tea pairs wonderfully with bergamot for an Earl Grey impression, with jasmine for a classic tea garden, with musk for a clean modern scent, with citrus for bright freshness, and with woods for a contemplative warmth.
