Green Tea Camellia

11/13/19 - I absolutely 💕 LOVE 💕 this scent. I work a lot of long hours in the healthcare field. That means that, if I’m patient/client-focused, I don’t wear fragrances that would make their stomachs turn in their already compromised health state. Smelling like one has just gotten out of the shower is definitely a plus in this field but it’s easy to go overboard with frags. EA Green Tea Camellia is so perfect for what I was looking for to wear to work - it’s fresh, clean, feminine, floral... yet polite and unobtrusive. It makes me feel happy and confident. Sometimes when I read reviews on here, soapy/out-of-the-shower notes are panned and make the frag being reviewed sound like an automatic scrapper. I work all. the. damn. time. I need these types of scents because it’s where I am the majority of my days. So, if you’re looking for a scent to spritz on after a long pool or beach day in the sun, or something that is pretty and crowd friendly, I cannot recommend this more. These types of scents also are dismissed as not being very sensual or sexy. I couldn’t disagree more. If you’re happy and relaxed and feel great with what you’re wearing, and you have a partner who likes to sniff your erogenous zones and fancies smelling clean floral creamy notes, heck yeah this is sexy and sensual! A+++ and I hope I can always find this. It’s my fave of EA’s entire Green Tea line 🥰

Oh wow! Green tea and camellia-what a fabulous idea. The perfume begins on the classic EA Green Tea opening, within a few minutes the yuzu emerges and makes it a bit sweeter and sparkling. Within about 15 minutes the camellia appears bringing in a clean and creamy floral arrangement. The musk and woody notes are whisper light, but present. The fragrance does have good projection and lasted around 6 hours without having to reapply. One of my favorites of the Green Tea line. Rating 8 out of 10. Suitable for office, casual, spring and summer wear.

Oh finally you got this one in the database! I've had the chance (and luck) to try it at the airport just the other day!I love all the green tea line, and this one is just amazing! Starts fresh and then becomes such a soft, slightly sweet, floral! And it seemed to last longer than any other EA green teas! My second favourite after the green tea tropical. I'm gonna get it next time i fly back, the price is very affordable as well!

Squeaky clean and aromatic citrusy white floral, in the vein of the original but with some more masculine dry spices and a touch more bitterness to it. It actually doesn't smell like screechy or cheap men's cologne at all, so that's good. I now see why the bottle is blue. It's definitely not trying to stand out or break out from that aromatic men's cologne category, though, just doing it in a really soft and agreeable way (and it's gentle and musky enough that a woman could still wear it). There's also less emphasis on the green tea note in this one and it feels like more of a supporting character amongst the aromatic/aquatic notes. Same goes for the more herbal notes like celery seed and fennel which are also not that fresh or bitter and mainly function as subtler supporting notes. I really like it and find it to be super effortless, but if you have both this and the original I don't think you'd need both. Doubtful that all these Green Tea flankers that I enjoy as a light pick-me-up are all keep-worthy, since a lot of them smell so similar or have a similar feel, but it is definitely worth a blind buy at a cheap price from a discount shop etc. especially if you're a man or a more tomboyish woman. I'll hold on to this one until I have the strength to whittle my rather redundant Green Tea flanker collection down. They're just so agreeable and such easy pick-me-ups, especially if you throw them in the fridge. I don't think you need to sample them all, but at such a cheap price, it's hard not to pick one up when you stumble upon them! Lasts about 5-6 hours, which is on par with the original, perhaps a bit longer. ★★★☆☆

I purchased EA's Green Tea many years back and just didn't feel it was my type of fragrance. I much preferred her 5th Avenue which was less harsh in the opening. I'm glad I gave her other Green Tea scents a chance. Saying that this fragrance "opens petal by petal" is quite accurate. I'm so glad someone mentioned this-- I used Camellia one day and used Exotic the next. I could not tell much of a difference between the two, so I will be passing the Camellia along to my sister, as I much prefer the notes in the Exotic. Camellia opens with a harsh citrus smell (probably the lemon and green tea). It dissipates fairly fast. The jasmin, mandarine, white peony, and magnolia come through next. By the time it's settled after at least an hour or two, the warm musk and spices linger but not for long. The longevity and sillage are not that great in my opinion. The fragrance starts out with a blast but will definitely not sustain for a whole day. You'd have to refresh it at some point during the day, but preferably NOT in your neck area. I spray this on my top so the fragrance can last a little longer. Bottom line: while I like this fragrance, I wouldn't repurchase it, since I like the Exotic better, which smells quite similar to this one.
