Thé Matcha

This is a really lovely, light and fresh scent. Very citrus-forward from the start, it feels like a blend of several citrus fruits layered with green tea and soft herbal notes through the middle. As it dries down, it turns into a clean, cosy musk that melts into my skin in a really pleasant way. That said, and I agree with what a lot of other reviews mention, this isn’t the most green tea centric fragrance out there. If you’re looking for something bold, deep or strongly focused on green tea, this isn’t it. The tea here is more of a supporting character rather than the star of the show. Longevity is also quite short, which is honestly expected for a fresh, citrusy scent. I personally don’t mind reapplying, but the bottles are pretty small, so they do run out quickly. Because of that, I tend to use it mostly at night, especially after my evening shower. Yes, there is a slight clean, almost freshly washed or cleaning product vibe at first, but nothing harsh or astringent. Very quickly, it softens into something gently sweet but never cloying and blends beautifully with the skin. In my personal opinion, this one is completely unisex and sits perfectly in the middle of the gender neutral spectrum. Easy, comforting, and very wearable.

This is a bit more fruity than I expected, but I really like it. It's like a pear green tea. It's incredibly bright and fresh. Very uplifting and clean. It feels very cheerful. I got it in a trio set that was very affordable, so I think this is a very good deal. Even on it's own, these are $20-$25 for a 100ml bottle, so it's really an easy buy. I think this would be good as a blind buy as it's so refreshing, it's hard to imagine it offending anyone or mixing poorly with your skin chemistry. I don't know why this is considered a men's fragrance though, it's more feminine leaning unisex. I think it would be nice for a man, but I definitely wouldn't call this a men specific scent.

I resent that this is marketed “for men”, this is quite unisex. opens with a breath of fresh green tea, light, crisp, and gently invigorating, like a quiet morning with a warm cup in hand. Freesia blooms at the heart, soft and airy, adding a touch of floral sweetness— a delicate contrast to the tea’s natural earthiness. As it settles, amber brings warmth, wrapping the scent in a subtle golden glow, smooth and comforting, like sunlight on the skin. Refreshing yet cozy, Thé Matcha is a balance of brightness and warmth, a scent that feels both serene and effortless.x

It does not smell like matcha whatsoever, but it is a beautiful scent. I do find it ultra-feminine. I read it's supposed to be masculine. Can't imagine a dude pulling this one off

Thé Matcha has survived many declutters, and yet I have tried to declutter it many times, mainly because I keep reaching for it expecting it to fit in with the many facets of my tea obsession: a cool and refreshing tea (like Bvlgari Green Tea or Elizabeth Arden Green Tea), a milky and powdery tea (like Replica Tea Escape) or a sensuous, woody tea (like Bvlgari Red Tea). And it is none of these things! And yet it keeps surviving my declutters because I like it every time I spray it on! How does this keep happening? I've realized the problem is the name; it's not a matcha (let alone tea) scent at all! I want bitterness, powder, a milky, warm base when I think of matcha. Or for a green tea, at least something earthier and more bitter. This is a zesty, ripe wedge of lime in a mojito drink, that turns from effervescent to a more calming and powdery green in about 10-20 minutes. But it's not cheap/alcohol smelling nor sharp -- it's anchored by a smooth amber base, freesias and orange blossoms. Where it lacks in longevity (it lasts about 2 hours on me) it makes up for by being a perfectly quality, well-formulated scent. It reminds me a lot of a slightly sweeter Versace Versense, without the gentle kick of cardamom spice and soapiness. I think this is a very safe blind buy for a young lady, who has more of a natural/minimalist style, and prefers not to wear the candy sweet gourmands. This would also make a nice office everyday scent for someone who wants to smell citrusy fresh, but still put together and feminine. Not as rugged or provocative as the CK One girl, she valets the car and wears strands of thin dainty jewels on her designer white t-shirt.
