JASMINE TEA
Jasmine tea brings together the green character of tea leaves and the soft sweetness of jasmine flowers. In perfume, the effect can suggest a fragrant infusion, with the floral side woven through the leaves rather than standing apart as a full white-flower bouquet. The balance may lean towards fresh greenery or a more generous jasmine bloom.
The inspiration is tea scented with jasmine blossoms. Perfumers can approach it in different ways: natural extracts of jasmine-scented tea leaves exist, including materials obtained using supercritical carbon dioxide, while other interpretations combine a tea accord with jasmine materials. The name therefore describes a scent idea rather than one compulsory formula. It can offer a floral thread through a fresh composition or a leafy counterpoint to sweeter notes; the surrounding ingredients determine its weight and warmth.
