Tea

22 perfumes

Derived from Camellia sinensis leaves, tea notes offer a crisp, verdant, and sophisticated profile. Ranging from ethereal white tea to smoky Lapsang Souchong, it acts as a versatile bridge between top and heart notes, providing a refreshing, astringent clarity. In Gulf perfumery, tea is increasingly paired with saffron or dried rose, evoking the hospitality of traditional Arabic tea rituals. It lends a refined, meditative quality to compositions, balancing the intensity of heavy ouds and ambers with its clean, aromatic elegance.
