Perfumes with Black Tea

Black tea smells dark, tannic and slightly smoky with honeyed and dried-fruit nuances, warmer, denser and more mature than green tea.

An absolute can be solvent-extracted from Camellia sinensis leaves, but black tea in perfume is usually an accord reinforced with synthetic molecules. It carries tobacco, dry leaf and faint leather facets, and smoked interpretations inspired by Lapsang souchong are even more smoky. Black tea sits mainly in the heart of a fragrance. It pairs with bergamot, lemon, rose, honey, tobacco, woods and musks.

Black Tea appears in 873 perfumes in the Fisfis catalogue and is used mostly as a heart note.
