What does Purple Tea smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good; the sample is small, but most voters score both high. There are no season or occasion votes, so it's hard to say when it suits best, and it reads as unisex, sitting between masculine and feminine.

Pink grapefruit opens it up with some freshness, then the heart brings black tea, jasmine, ylang-ylang and iris, with a powdery, creamy softness to the florals. In the base, vanilla, tonka bean and sandalwood build a sweet, warm foundation, while vetiver adds an earthy weight. Schuback Mol Escence Rouge and Hellenist les bras de Morphée have a close profile.
