Luminoir

Luminoir is a delightful fragrance that beautifully balances fresh and warm elements. From the moment you spritz it on, the top notes of bergamot and Japanese green tea shine with a bright, zesty freshness. The initial burst is invigorating, uplifting and incredibly refreshing. As it settles, the heart notes reveals a lush blend of fig nectar and night-blooming jasmine, intertwined with the intriguing spice of black cardamom and the floral sweetness of neroli - a beautiful concoction of my favorite notes. The base notes of sandalwood, ginger, moss, and tiare flower provide a warm, earthy finish that lingers beautifully on the skin. The sandalwood adds a creamy depth, while the ginger brings a subtle warmth, perfectly complementing the floral and fruity aspects of the fragrance. Overall, Luminoir is a masterful creation that embodies freshness and warmth in a seamless blend. It’s a fragrance that feels both luxurious and approachable, and it’s already a beloved staple for anyone who enjoys a bright, floral, and slightly spicy scent. I love it.

F*ck me, this is not a super fruity fragrance but I am actually happy it’s not. The Japanese Green Tea is so meditative, without smelling “too much” like those boring tea-forward frags. I heavily dislike one-dimensional linear stuff, and this is quite the opposite of that. The cardamom is super seductive and intimate in a way, and contrasts heavily with the bright night blooming jasmine. The performance is moderate-strong, nothing super nuclear. I get around 8 hours on skin, 12 on clothes. Moderate-strong sillage, which feels quite fitting for a frag like this. Artistic yet still very very pleasing. I’d give it a good 4.8/5. (have a full bottle coming fml)

I took a trip to China earlier this spring, and had a chance to try “To Summer’s” fragrances. One that really stood out to me was Void. Welp, LUMINOIR is pretty much a better version of Void in every way lol. It’s more complex, has a higher quality smell which I adore. The jasmine they use here is top of the game and natural. And when the dry down comes, that black cardamom gives this a slight smokiness that feels super nice. Overall, I give this one a high 9.7/10

I initially wanted to just try Heavenly Delusion, but this one surprised the heck out of me. You will never experience such a unique blend of calming sandalwood, fig, and that stunning night blooming jasmine. The story matches this fragrance very well, as I can sense and feel every nuance of each note. Wearing experience is very important to me, more than any other factor. The first time I wore this, it felt like a new, exciting, and unknown adventure.

I recently sampled this and wow, what a beautiful fragrance. The green tea is probably my favorite part of this, since it doesn’t feel too green or sweet, more like a pure-realistic smelling tea (if that makes sense). In the future, I’m definitely picking up a bottle 😊

I revisited this a few months after purchasing, and I've grown to love it so so much. It's perfectly soapy-clean, with a realistic tea that feels so perfect for this warm weather. It kind of reminds me of a super luxurious soap, in the best way possible. Beautiful!

Simply amazing and so chic! It’s bright with those citruses and green tea but also dark and aromatic with that black cardamom/sandalwood. It feels so comfortable to wear yet stays very unique, this is definitely within top 10 in my collection rn. 9.6 / 10

THIS IS FABULOUS! What a unique fragrance, especially when a lot of stuff just smells the same now loool

Now that Spring is just around the corner, I cannot wait to drain my bottle. Best tea frag ever.

I felt kind of misled with this one. I expected a really fresh or herbal tea fragrance, but it's really spicy on my skin. Someone below said it smelled like a Jalapeño and cannot stop getting that out of my head every time I smell it cause it's kinda true lol. I get way more cardamom and sandalwood than tea or anything else. I like the opening the most but it just develops into something I'm not the biggest fan of. I feel like it's just a confused scent overall. It does perform well though.

Develops slowly, didn't smell like much at first, but after heating up in the sun it developed an amazing drydown. I picked up a sample at the fragrance exchange club and had no expectations. The cloth test in the sun was amazing and so I tried it on skin and like it. It is definitely for a warm afternoon.

I was excited at the tea note upon viewing the notes of this fragrance. I hardly get any tea at all, and the initial scent is dominated by white florals. It smells nothing like other tea scents I own or have tried, and I could hardly tolerate it after the initial spray. After the first hour, the white florals mellowed out and the scent became much more pleasing. I also find that the subtle whiffs smell so much better than taking a big closeup hit right off of paper or the back of your hand. I expect this fragrance to be enjoyed much more by those around them than the wearer. My expectation was that this would be fairly unisex. I find it to lean very feminine. This is not blind-buy-safe.

The jalepeno comments got to me and I smell it, definitely was waiting for a tea scent and not a spicy scent. Performance is decent smell is good after the spicy was kick down def try but note of jalepeno

On initial spray, I'm not sure about either of these. I will wait for a few wears to pass my own final judgement, but initially, I don't like either. Luminoir smells confused. I don't get black tea, I certainly don't get any fig. Fig stem maybe. But there is nothing here that is juicy, or fruity. Im not picking up any ginger or cadamom for sure. Sprayed it on about 45 minutes ago. Initial thoughts are Its oddly muted, cant figure it out, definitely not worth 200 bucks. I'll give it a few full wears and come back, but first impressions, I don't think i like this.

Smells like a jalapeño and can be too spicy for me

From my experience testing this fragrance and wearing it, unlike some of the reviews below (which I respect—it’s all subjective, and that’s their opinion), I’m really unsure how this is classified even remotely as one of the best tea fragrances to come to market. I find this to be a very dated smell. Upon initial spray, I get a grassy lemon verbena opening..that’s what it reminds me of ..followed by a ton of florals and a very floral tea note. It comes off as a very grandma like floral fragrance to my nose and to others that I’ve had smell it. It reminds me of a floral fabric softener or floral style soaps. In my opinion, it doesn’t smell expensive, and I just would like to set the record straight..it does not smell like imagination or anything like Wulong Cha from Nishane. I recommend definitely testing this fragrance. In my opinion, it’s not a safe blind buy. I was very excited about it, but sadly, I was completely disappointed that it came off like a very floral, grassy, dated grandma type fragrance. Not worth the price tag imo. Took a L on this one.

This is a very well made fragrance that reminds me of a lighter MFK Aqua Media Forte, minus the prominent tea note. It's quite unique and nothing like another well known tea fragrance like Imagination as it does its own thing. I can't imagine anyone not having an affinity for this and it is blind buy safe in my opinion. It does remind me of the interior of a makeup bag but not necessarily in a bad way. It's a bit pricey but the quality can easily justify the tag.

this is beautiful. I was concerned when I saw all of the white florals in the notes because they don’t typically work well on me, but I absolutely love this. the tea and cardamom really ground the florals and add the bitterness they need, and the fig and bergamot bring some bright, juicy notes. this is an absolutely stunning spring fragrance. so unique and well blended. and it projects beautifully! 10/10

Sharp and chemical. Mostly jasmine. Meh.
