Чай 8 драгоценностей (8 jewels tea) (2022)
Fragrance notes
Character
Чай 8 драгоценностей (8 jewels tea) (2022) leans heavily into its sweetness, and that is the first thing to address. Brown sugar sits high in the blend, giving the entire composition a candied weight that can feel thick if the air is warm. Dried fruits and barberry add a chewy, tart edge to that sugar, but they do not cut through it. Lemon peel offers a bright lift, yet the citrus stays wrapped in the heavier notes rather than clearing the air. Green tea and black tea provide a mild bitter contrast, though the tea accord never reads as crisp or refreshing. Chrysanthemum and osmanthus bring a soft floral layer that blends into the sweetness instead of pulling it back. Musk, amber, and woody facets round out the base, but they follow the same rich path rather than drying the scent down.
The overall impression is fruity, herbal, and firmly sweet, with a powdery finish that lingers on the skin. It suits cooler days when a warm, gourmand-leaning scent feels comforting rather than overwhelming. Someone who enjoys tea perfumes but prefers them rich and dessert-like will find a good match here. Wear it during autumn and winter, especially in the evening or when the air is dry and cold. Those who prefer fresh, airy compositions or dislike prominent sugar should look elsewhere, as the candied facet dominates from the first moment to the last.
