ScentLab33 Smoked Tea Rubber No.146 | Inspired by Bvlgari Black (1998) | EDT & EDP

Smoked Tea Rubber No.146

Inspired by Bvlgari Black (1998), this independent ScentLab33 fragrance interprets its recognisable scent direction in EDT and EDP formats.

Fragrance Notes

Top Notes: Bergamot, black tea and rosewood.
Heart Notes: Cedarwood, jasmine and a soft leather-rubber accord.
Base Notes: Vanilla, amber and clean musk.

Detailed Scent Summary

A dry black-tea opening meets an unusual smoky rubber nuance, then softens into polished woods and restrained vanilla. The contrast is urban, warm and slightly industrial rather than sugary.

The scent moves clearly from bergamot into cedarwood, then settles around vanilla. This progression helps shoppers understand the fragrance beyond the inspiration name and compare its freshness, sweetness, warmth and texture before ordering.

Longevity & Sillage

Estimated EDT longevity: 5–7 hours. Estimated EDP longevity: 7–9 hours. EDT is lighter and usually easier for daytime or close-contact spaces; EDP feels fuller and generally projects longer. Performance varies with skin chemistry, humidity, temperature, clothing and spray count, so these are practical estimates rather than guarantees.

When to Wear & Style Pairing

Best suited to Autumn and winter. Recommended for creative offices, evening galleries and minimalist dinners. In Western wardrobes, pair it with black tailoring, textured knitwear and leather shoes. Start with two to three sprays on the chest and neck; reduce application in offices, restaurants, aircraft cabins and shared transport. For exercise, apply after showering rather than before training.

Perfumer’s Note

“The aim was to preserve the contrast that defines this scent direction while giving the opening, heart and drydown a clear ScentLab33 progression. The result is made for modern wear rather than bottle-for-bottle duplication.”
