Teia

Wow! This gorgeous creation opens with an exhilarating bouquet of fougere spices with an aromatic quality, where the cardamom and lavender embrace the Haitian Vetiver and are emphasized by the power of Ambergris. After this first impetuous and original scent, there is a heart with a regal and imperious accent, underpinned by the powerful force of precious woods such as Oud from Laos and Cedar from Lebanon, rendered mystical by the contrast of Incense from Oman, and enriched with the reverberations of Tuscan Leather and Vanilla Berries from Madagascar. This heart of pulsating energy is built on a very solid and noble base, softened by the scents of Saffron embraced by the echoes of Patchouli and Sandalwood, backed by the silent and inimitable Musk! Just a magical fragrance with high quality notes that everyone NEEDS TO TRY! LOVE THIS

A beautiful fragrance with beautiful notes. The lavender brings a lot of freshness and aroma together with the vanilla in the background which makes it just a superb fragrance. The warm and spicy notes are merged with the fresh, lively and woody notes. I like that the scent remains on clothes for a very long time and you don't have a spray a lot, 2 spritz are more than enough, and you'll get so many compliments wearing this.

Interestingly I enjoyed Teia. I was pretty hesitant to try this out because spicy perfumes aren't really my type. The vanilla note on this fragrance balanced the spiciness rather well. Although I can't pinpoint when exactly the spiciness ends and the leather/cedar/sandalwood comes in, I really liked it. It wears really long on my skin, but I think men will appreciate this more.

I don't think I've encountered a warm woody perfume I love more than Teia. First notes I get are cardamom and lavender, then I'm greeted by vetiver and cedar. Divine creation. Dry down is a soft wonderful saffron, patchouli and sandalwood. If you manage to get a hand on this one, I highly suggest you grab it!

I had a opportunity to try Teia's sample for a whole day. It's a very beautiful warm spicy smell. Sandalwood, leather and cedar is prominent. In it's first notes you can smell the vanilla and the fruits but then they leave their place to warm spices. Since it's a spicy smell you might expect the perfume to stay longer. But I advise you not to make such a mistake. It only lasts around for an hour maximum. Even though it's very rich perfume with the smell and the ingredients it's price still not worth the short lived experience.
