The composition's character comes from the tension between fresh green notes and warmer materials. Green Tea gives the opening a clean, vegetal brightness, while Saffron introduces toasted spice without making the scent heavy. White Flowers bring an airy floral middle, softened by Ambrette Seed and Mate. That combination gives the tea a tactile, powdery quality, while the base woods prevent it from feeling like a simple fresh scent. Guaiac Wood, Cedarwood, Sandalwood, and Musk shape a smooth, steady finish that suits everyday wear.

The evolution

At first, the fragrance reads as vivid green tea: powdered, leafy, and slightly astringent, with Saffron adding a dry spark at the edge. As it settles, the tea becomes less sharp and more atmospheric. White Flowers rise through the center like steam, while Ambrette Seed and Mate keep the texture soft and lightly creamy. The final stretch belongs to the woods. Guaiac Wood and Cedarwood bring a clean, polished structure, Sandalwood adds a gentle warmth, and Musk keeps everything close to skin. The result is a tea-like scent that moves from fresh to floral to quietly woody, lingering comfortably through the middle hours rather than shouting for attention.
