What does Tea Escape smell like?

It opens with mint, pink pepper and bergamot for a citrus-bright lift. In the heart, green tea sits with jasmine sambac absolute and osmanthus. Puffed rice, maté absolute and milk soften the base into a creamy, lightly powdery finish.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most chosen settings. The feminine character vote leads. Juliette Has A Gun Gentlewoman and Welton Sencha have a close profile.
