What does Tea for Two smell like?

It opens with star anise, bergamot and orange blossom, then tea, ginger and cinnamon lead the heart. Vanilla, honey, tobacco and gaiac wood settle in the base. Sweet and gourmand tones dominate, with spicy and woody notes balancing them and a smoky edge behind.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans toward evening and leisure wear. Masculine and feminine votes run close, so it reads truly unisex. Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille (Eau de Parfum) and Zara TOB/03 Tabac-Treasure have a similar profile.
