What do reviewers say about Rice Paddy and Tea Escape?
Demeter built a brand on oddballs. Rice Paddy is one of their finest, green shoots over still water, then a lactonic sweetness that divides the room. If you want to smell like a concept.Rice Paddy
The mint is the pulse of this fragrance. Some find it almost soapy at first, but give it time. Once the green tea and milk take over, it's pure, edible comfort.Tea Escape
