What does High Tea smell like?

The top notes are bergamot, Roman chamomile and clary sage, giving a bright, herbal start. In the heart, maté, Provençal lavender and Tunisian neroli bring out the floral and spicy side. The base of Somalian frankincense, Ambroxan and Venezuelan tonka bean softens the whole.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Voters choose it mostly for daily wear, leisure and business. In the character votes, feminine leads, with masculine and modern readings not far behind. Le Couvent Aqua Imperi and Nissaba Provence have a close profile.
