Thé Matcha

Matcha sits at an interesting crossroads in fragrance: it's associated with ceremonial intensity, but the note itself is more subtle than people expect. The green tea accord in Thé Matcha captures the drink's essence, drawing out its characteristic profile. Rose adds a floral lift that makes the green tea feel familiar rather than foreign. Cashmere wood contributes to the composition, adding warmth and depth. The whole composition uses green tea as a starting point, inviting exploration of its nuances.

The evolution

The opening hits bright. Bergamot and citron arrive together, citrusy and clean, with cardamom adding a whisper of spice that adds dimension to the citrus. That citrus phase does the work of making the green tea feel intentional rather than accidental. The heart arrives gradually. Matcha emerges as a quiet green presence, softened by rose into something more approachable than the raw note. Cashmere wood fills the middle registers, adding warmth without weight. By the drydown, the citrus is gone entirely. What remains is a powdery warmth, white amber and musk sitting close to the skin, with sandalwood lending a creamy finish that extends the wear. The fragrance settles into a skin presence that lingers intimately.
