There is something mysterious about tea fragrances that we cannot wrap our heads around. The herbal subtleness, the soft flowery allure, the gentle earthy aftersmell. So many unique olfactory qualities come into play which make them very special to our noses. They just cannot fit into a single olfactory category. And if you search for them in our store you may find them lingering between the floral and herbaceous categories. So, to break our top three tea fragrances down a little bit for you we are going to explore their scent make up even further than our typical product descriptions.

English Breakfast Tea

This is the freshest one our tea trio with a hefty dose of bergamot at the top, reminiscent of Earl Grey. Well, black tea plus bergamot equals Earl Grey tea. So yes, this tea scent is as English as it can get. A dash of vanilla at the base stands for the cream you will surely add, but also as a subtle foundation for this otherwise ultra delicate scent. Oh, and another thing. This is by far the most delicate of all our tea fragrances. So, for those looking for a strong fragrance (we sincerely got tired of hearing that…), just skip it already.

Dandelion Root Tea

Now here’s something your previous fragrance supplier didn’t have and wouldn’t even dare to think of adding it to their collection. Luckily you’ve found us who are obsessed with tea fragrances and always on the lookout for totally unique stuff regardless of commercial appeal. And OMG this is unique! Bold peppery notes at the top, and an irresistible earthy/flowery combo in the heart notes made us go pluck some dandelion roots to boil! This one is fairly strong due to its amber/tonka base. More suitable for cosmetics though.

Mulberry Leaf Tea

We have many mulberries here in Greece but few make teas of them anymore. A pity if you ask us, because they’re missing one of the most exquisite beverages. This one is the greenest of the tea trio. You can call it “fresh” if you like. But no citrucy-fresh like English Breakfast Tea. More on the herbaceaous fresh, but nevertheless a good balance with lovely fruity notes (mulberry of course) and a quite unique flower (osmanthus) which surprised us in a good way! Quite strong and lovely for candles/diffusers etc.

Honorable Mentions 

For commercial reasons, we also host 2 very popular tea fragrances which need no special introduction from us as we are (statistically) pretty sure they will be your top selections. These are the all-time favorite Chamomile Tea and the ultra sleek Green Tea and Lemon. We’ve especially ordered the latter to be a more perfume-like and modern take on the typical Green Tea + Lemon combo you get to see in literally every fragrance oils supplier on planet earth. You will see what we mean if you try it 😉
