What does Tchai smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate: neither loud nor faint, it stays close. Most voters suggest fall and spring, and leisure or daily wear. Masculine and feminine votes are nearly even, so it leans neither way.

A fresh, citrusy opening turns green and spicy, with violet leaf and cardamom sharpening the bergamot. Mimosa, osmanthus and ylang-ylang add a soft floral heart, and Darjeeling tea, black tea and Indian sandalwood leave a calm, woody base.
