Black Cherry & Oolong Tea
Fragrance notes
Character
Black Cherry & Oolong Tea opens with a bright, tart black cherry that is immediately softened by the creamy roundness of almond. Red berries add a juicy, slightly sharp edge, while bergamot provides a clean citrus lift that keeps the fruit from feeling heavy. The opening is sweet but not syrupy, moving quickly into a more complex phase where the fruit begins to intertwine with the heart notes.
The oolong tea note brings a slightly bitter, leafy freshness that cuts through the sweetness of the cherry. Two distinct roses, Turkish and Bulgarian, lend a classic floral elegance that is given an unexpected twist by licorice. The licorice adds a dark, slightly medicinal sharpness that prevents the florals from becoming too pretty. As the fragrance develops, the tea and spice elements grow stronger, creating a sophisticated aromatic profile that feels both refreshing and slightly moody.
In the drydown, patchouli and tonka bean create a deep, earthy foundation with a rich vanilla warmth. Iris contributes a soft, powdery texture that smooths the transition between the spicy anise and the woody base. The almond from the opening resurfaces here, mingling with the tonka to create a marzipan-like sweetness that is grounded by the patchouli. The final impression is a harmonious blend of cherry, warm spice, and powdery iris.
