🍵 The Inspiration: A Tokyo Garden
Drinking a cup of high-grade green tea in a minimalist garden where lilies are blooming in the shade. Zen Tea Garden focuses on the herbal, meditative facets of the lily. It is green, dry, and incredibly calm. It captures the essence of "Ma"—the space between things.
🧪 The Olfactory Architecture: Green Tea & Petals
The opening is a dry Bergamot and Green Tea Accord. It is tannic and fresh. The heart is a transparent Lily of the Valley and Clary Sage, adding a herbal depth. The base is Guaiac Wood and Mate Absolute, leaving a trail of quiet sophistication and peace.
🌿 Raw Material Sourcing: The Zen Palette
-
Green Tea Extract: Captures the steam and dry leaf scent of Sencha tea.
-
Clary Sage: Adds a hay-like, herbal warmth.
-
Guaiac Wood: A dense, slightly smoky wood that grounds the composition.
🧠 The Scent Psychology: Mindfulness
Tea and herbal scents are associated with mindfulness and stress reduction. Zen Tea Garden acts as a personal sanctuary. It helps you slow down and breathe, perfect for high-pressure office environments.
🇬🇧 The London Lab Technology
We used Tea-Tannin Tech to stabilize the herbal notes. Normally, tea scents can turn "sour" on the skin; our tech ensures the dry, leafy profile stays true and fresh for hours.
✨ The Application Ritual
When to wear: Work, reading time, or stressful days.
Where to spray: On your wrists and solar plexus to inhale the calming notes.
Style pairing: Minimalist cuts, monochrome, natural fabrics.
💭 From the Perfumer's Diary
"This is my 'Focus' scent. It's not distracting. It's quiet and respectful. I wear this when I'm formulating in the lab—it keeps my mind clear and my senses sharp."
