PowderyWhat does My Cup of Tea - 5 o'clock smell like?
The top notes of lemon, black tea and bergamot give a citrusy, green freshness. Freesia, lily of the valley and lavender bring a floral, powdery touch to the heart. Vanilla, musk and tonka bean sweeten the base, and that sweetness blends with a fruity, lightly spicy tone.
Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Voters pick all four seasons in similar shares, and it leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Acqua di Parma Acqua Nobile Magnolia and Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Tiaré Mimosa have a close profile.
