Is this a realistic tea fragrance?+−
It captures the "green" and "fresh" aspects of Gyokuro tea, but it is not a literal, dry tea leaf scent. The presence of peach, lotus, and exotic fruits transforms it into a more complex, fruity-floral composition where the tea acts as a refreshing backdrop.
How long does the scent last on the skin?+−
It is known for having reliable longevity for a fresh fragrance, typically lasting through a standard workday, though its projection becomes much more intimate and skin-focused after the first few hours.
Can this be worn in cold weather?+−
While it can be worn year-round, its delicate floral and aquatic accords are most expressive in spring and summer. In the deep cold of winter, the subtle nuances of the lotus and tea may be harder to detect.
How does the peach note affect the fragrance?+−
The peach provides a soft, fuzzy sweetness in the heart of the fragrance. It works with the exotic fruits to give the scent a "fleshy" fruitiness that balances the sharper notes of black pepper and vetiver.
