doomsday_disco Report post Posted February 5 Angora, Lady of the Rabbit skull – ceremonial matcha added to a steaming cup of earl grey, family heirlooms and artifacts, a packed suitcase, ruffles, buttons and bows, awaiting adventure. Earl gray and matcha, blackcurrant bud, white sandalwood, pink rose petals, honeysuckle, and white musk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roseus Report post Posted March 6 In the imp I get mostly crisp green tea white musk. On my skin the earl grey comes out, as do the florals. More honeysuckle than rose on me. It's bright and breezy, a gorgeous springtime blend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doomsday_disco Report post Posted Wednesday at 04:04 PM (edited) This is a sparkling floral tea blend. The Earl Grey note reads more like the Lab's lemony white tea with bergamot. There's no black tea or matcha to be found. I get the pink rose and honeysuckle (more rose than honeysuckle on my skin) along with the tea note, swirled with the white musk, which adds to the sparkly, perfume-y feel of the scent, and just a touch of blackcurrant. I'd put this in the same family as scents like Butterflies, Flowers, and Jewels Attending. I'm a little sad that I wasn't able to detect any matcha here, but I do think this is pretty, nevertheless! I agree that this will be perfect for spring and will be hanging onto my decant. Edited Wednesday at 04:04 PM by doomsday_disco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Assimbya Report post Posted yesterday at 05:07 PM Definitely agree with @doomsday_disco that this reads like the Lab's white tea - it reminds me very much of the tea note in Maiden. On me it's quite citrus, but not in a well that feels distinctly identifiable as bergamot. The florals likewise are quite indistinct and very dry on me, mixing with the matcha, and I think also the sandalwood and white musk into something that feels more like dried, powered petals mixed with tea. I don't get any distinguishable blackcurrant. As with Maiden, I think this is a case where my skin chemistry has led me astray - as a whole this is very astringent and powdery, rather than the happy springtime floral I was hoping for, even though these notes are largely ones I adore. I think it would work better on me with some sweetness or a lactonic note to cut through the sharpness, which I'm learning is what I really sort of need with tea scents (and maybe that's fitting, since I always do drink my tea with milk and sugar!). I'll retest my decant a few times as I'm not ready to give up on this quite yet, but unfortunately I don't think it's going to be for me despite loving the idea of it.
