Matcha Meditation

About

Green tea, bergamot, and mandarin create a cool, bright opening with a gentle bitter edge. In the heart, matcha, mate, jasmine, and orange blossom stay smooth and calm. White chocolate, cedar, moss, and benzoin leave a warm creamy-woody trace close to the skin.

Matcha Meditation opens with the cool green tone of a tea accord lit by bergamot and mandarin. In the first minutes it feels transparent and slightly bitter, like freshly whisked matcha in a thin ceramic cup. In the heart, jasmine and orange blossom add soft floral roundness, while mate and matcha keep the herbal, calm rhythm in place. As it dries down, the composition turns creamier: white chocolate smooths the green edge and makes the trail more comforting. Moss, cedar, and benzoin build a warm, dry base without heaviness, with a sense of clean wood and quiet sweetness. Projection is moderate, staying close to the skin and composed rather than loud. It suits wearers who enjoy sweet-green fragrances and want a calm, meditative option for daytime, office hours, or an unhurried evening.
