Elizabeth ArdenWhite Tea
Cool mineral air and crushed green ferns for the relentless sun
It hits with the sharp, watery sting of sea salt and mandarin before settling into a quiet, herbal heart of clary sage and white tea. The composition feels like shade in an open courtyard, leaning heavily on dry woods and the vegetal bitterness of mate. There is no sweetness here; only a persistent, airy clarity that stays close to the skin. By the dry down, white iris and tonka bean provide a soft-focus grounding, keeping the scent clean and composed throughout a long, humid afternoon.
