Sunday Brunch

So special it made my Christmas Short List and landed myself two 50ml bottles (they don't sell 100mls, it seems) with their Holiday Set. Gonna rock this as my signature fragrance for Spring/Summer 2020 before this scent goes viral. This is not a ringer for Tom Ford Venetian Bergamot, has more smooth sophistication than Le Labo's Bergamote 22, but its amazing how this house has created something that gives all the $$$ brands a run for their money but at an affordable price. I don't know how they have done it but I'm sold on this fragrance and brand.

This is a very different kind of citrusy scent. There is nothing sweet about this fragrance. There is a hint of floral in the dry down- the jasmine- that emerges. It lasts about 10-11 hours on my skin. I get the most compliments in the first 4-5 hours of use but enjoy the dry down for myself. This is a sophisticated scent for sure- something to wear when going out on a date or to an event. Perfect for a Sunday Brunch, as the name says. Something to wear when I want to be noticed. I would not consider this a fragrance for the gym or work.

IMHO one of the best citrus tea’s out right now. It last ages for a citrus and the combination and simplicity of the notes just work perfectly together. It is neither feminine nor masculine and I’m very happy to own it. All in all 9.2/10

Fantastic version of a lemony tea perfume, very refreshing. Sunday Brunch is heavy on the lemon along with the tea - it does smell like earl grey tea leaves, but I tend to drink my earl grey with milk, so it doesn't really remind me of actually sipping earl grey. More like just smelling the refreshing scent of the leaves, anticipating making some tea, maybe you've even brewed some but I haven't finished making it with my milk and sugar. It's very bright and uplifting, and smells less like Sunday brunch to me, and instead a sunny morning on your own, about to make some delicious tea at the beginning of a summer day. I have used up a travel spray of this - their travel sprays are affordable, especially on sale, but they are a little on the leaky side, so keep that in mind when you travel with them. The brand is super kind, though - I had ordered just this one, but there was a delay, so they sent me three of their other travel sprays for free. That was above and beyond generous of them. Can't wait to try the others!

There's a definite spice to this scent. It almost seems like ginger? It's a nice fresh scent that stands out a bit from the "fresh" crowd . . . At least at the start. Unfortunately, it just doesn't last. Same scenario as most freshies. It also loses it's unique edge quite quickly. The tea and bergamot is a very refreshing combo. And it's thoroughly unisex without leaning one way or another. I don't get sweetness from it, but it's also not overly tart, thanks to the floral undertone. If you're very interested in fresh scents, this is not a bad one to try. For me, I'll enjoy my decant and move on. It's just not special enough.

Reviewing a sample from 2025. Sunday brunch was launched in 2018. This is an elegant sparkling fresh tea fragrance. Opens with very realistic citrusy Earl grey tea, then a barely there soft herbal/floral base. No perceptible synthetic notes. Not soapy or sweet. Simple but balanced blending. Quality- very good 4/5 Unisex - totally Performance - poor overall but good for a fesh citrus scent 3/5 Fresh happy citrus & tea fragrance for easy every day wear anytime but will shine in the heat. 7.5/10

Citrus with a maple syrup undertone. I wasn't super impressed with this at first; it seemed kind of boring. But this is very easy-to-wear. It would be nearly impossible to overspray, and it's bright & refreshing with a comforting milky drydown that takes the edge off. This lingers for about 3-4 hours on my skin, which is exactly what I like. This isn't "signature scent" worthy, but it's perfect for "I woke up smelling so good" nonchalance.

Love it. A very sophisticated bergamot. I do get tea, earl grey and jasmine tea infused in one. Not super zesty or citrus, more aromatic with the classic bergamot oil scent rather than a big burst. Smells really expensive.

Extremely bright, sparkly, and slightly tangy. Like sunshine in a bottle. That being said, I find the projection to hold this one back a little bit, as you reaaallly have to get close to your skin to smell it sadly.

Good value for your money, simple composition , very good quality ,bright , summer fragrance. The lemon and bergamot come off like lime and the Earl grey tea resembles a clean vetiver. Impossible not to like.

Smells exactly like earl grey tea! I compared it to my container of the real thing just to be sure. Decent staying power, wears very close to the body.

smells like the dry down of pomelo sorrento without any grapefruit. poor performance good scent

Lipton Lemon Tea in a good way. It's elegant, fresh and light.

Chipper and upbeat bergamot and tea scent.

This fragrance is really evocative of a brunch stroll - the citrus is strong here, but there's also some slight alcoholic sweetness, too. Sadly, it lacks the strong character of their other fragrances and disappears so quickly that there is no time for it to develop on my skin.

I am getting a standard woody citrus fragrance. Good not great. This is a citrus so projection is below average. I suspect longevity will be an issue as well. After about thirty minutes all I smell is Iso E Supper. Look out Greza, someone is coming for you 🤣🤦😴

I dont get much tea, just straight up lemon and bergamot! Very enjoyable and natural citrus going on here that lasts and lasts. Really nice and I will possibly add to my collection as I have been looking for a realistic citrus that is also a good performer.

My, my... smells almost nostalgic. A cup of earl grey tea you'd have on a summer terrace in a vintage cafe. Very refreshing and welcoming, perfect for the daytime.

Refreshing scent, like sun-brewed tea while a breeze blows. Extremely fresh. But the dry down lacks a strong identity. No sillage to speak of, whatsoever.

It smells like the Differently Company’s ‘Bergamote’ but not as good. Zingy, fresh, lightness.

I HAVE A WARNING TO ANYONE DEALING WITH THIS COMPANY ordered off brand website manhattan minds kierin NYC Ordered two scents on the 11th and 12th of October. A few days later I received I scent I had not ordered and sent it back. And currently I still have not received either scent. So while I can't attest to what all scents smell like I can say ordering direct from the manufacturer is very unwise. Stick with Maxaroma or other companies that carry the brand. I'm currently sitting here feeling very duped. The worst part is that the owner sent me a video where I could see anything buy incould hear her supposedly Talking to a postal carrier and that carrier stated that the packages were in their warehouse and that it would be a month and a half before they could get to it and get it shipped out....of course I called usps who has never heard of any post office that backed up. Get this product from a reputable seller. At least I did get to review santal sky. Check my review on it.

Sunday Brunch is the rare citrus-tea fragrance that actually feels alive. The opening bursts with the juiciness of real bergamot and lemon. It is sparkling and never sharp or tart. Softened by a refined Earl Grey tea accord, mate, and a whisper of jasmine that also adds polish and calm. It’s not the generic “woody citrus” some claim; it’s the scent of golden sunlight through a glass teacup full of joy. I think the critics who site poor performance may not be factoring for what a non-synthetic, real lemon and bergamot oil can offer. Kierin has chosen to go the natural oil route, which has its limits in terms of projection and longevity, but that compromise is offset by the warm juiciness that synthetics lack. It's a mistake to compare a natural lemon oil to a synthetic lemon accord. And it's not fair to expect a natural lemon oil to perform like a synthetic accord, either. For those who understand citrus performance, how fleeting it is as a rule (which makes it all the more enjoyable/special), you get what I'm saying. This fragrance has qualities of Tom Ford Venetian Bergamot, Atelier Cologne Bergamot Soleil (without the soapiness) and Le Labo Bergamote 22 but with better manners. And unlike so many citrus scents that lean tart and screechy, this one offers an elegant and classic experience. I give it as total 9/10 for the radiant and refreshing, natural oils eau de parfum as it is. Nine because I'm comparing it to itself and to how it could be its best self (which I think might be in an EXTRAIT, then 10/10). But, I wouldn't want to compromise the sillage- which 'as is' is perfect for the scent it is. It is on the verge of enormous on my skin and if it pushed any farther would disqualify it as an office, day date (or day anything) scent experience.

Imagine if Petit Matin by MFK shared a mimosa with Gucci Pour Homme II. That’s Sunday Brunch in a nutshell to me. I’m considering making this my new signature scent. It’s quality juice, inoffensive, inexpensive, non toxic, and lasts 6-8 hours on my skin. I actually still smell it on my hoodie from a week ago, so on clothing, it really lasts. Sample set is only $18 which they give back to you if you buy a full bottle. Highly recommend this house!

Got this as a sampler in an online order and was impressed right away. Nice and bright, super refreshing citrus with a brilliant tea note. I didn't expect to like this one as much as I did, but ordered a 50ml straightaway... The jasmine and tea work well together and the bergamot isn't overwhelming - which is nice. It's refreshingly, refreshing in a refreshing sort of way...

A + !!! Yet another awesome scent from Kierin NYC. All 4 of their current collection are full bottle worthy The best earl grey-ish/citrusy tea scent I have smelled. The added jasmine adds to the simple complexity of this one. So impressive,IMO. Balanced..smooth..comforting scent. Great for a "sleep" scent too. Loving this one !!

Jasmine is always a good foil to tea based perfumes. It has similar nuances and helps prolong the tea note. This is light, refreshing and an easy wear. It's more personal as a pick me up than making you smell like Mr Twining but if you accept it for what it is you can't go far wrong. Not every fragrance has to be a beast!

Very bright Earl Grey/citrus with an underlying custard scent. Very nice and interesting for morning wear when the sun is out. I get 3 hours of projection. Reminds of sunshine, tea, and someone cooking eggs in the kitchen. Final Score: 7.5/10

I'm intrigued by the name even though I generally dislike citrusy scents. My "Sunday Brunch" perfume is Eau de Charlotte by Annick Goutal. To me, it smells like a blackberry scone without being 'food-y', if that's possible.

A really nice fresh tea scent without being a copy of Earl Gray in all it's strong bergamot glory. A dry, light, citrus tea. Really nice! Perfect for hot weather.

This is my favorite KIERIN NYC scent! Love the tones of earl grey tea and lemon scents, and the way it makes me feel cheery.

Tea Tonique miller harris and mediterraneo carthusia smell very similar. Happy, citrus, simple.

To my nose this smells exactly like LV Afrernoon Swim
