What does Ginseng Biloba smell like?

Ginseng, maté, matcha and green tea sit side by side, with musk underneath. Fresh, green and floral accords lead, while spicy, woody and earthy touches stay in the background and pull the scent towards a tea-leaf feel. It reads as one whole rather than a sequence.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most chosen settings. Votes for feminine and masculine are close, so it sits easily on either. Rituals Chabana and L'Occitane en Provence Thé Vert have a close profile if you like tea-led scents.
