Rain Tea

I think this is absolutely beautiful, it instantly transports me to a 5 star hotel lobby with a really calming effect. I've been wearing this everyday the past week and I've been loving it. It's very clean/fresh smelling, not so much soapy clean but just a luxurious clean hotel or spa smell. It's super inoffensive and likable too imo. My best friend and gf love it, and my parents who don't like fragrances say it smells nice and fresh. I love the lemongrass here, it's more noticeable in the opening and slowly fades into the background. It's a little more floral than I was expecting, the florals are pretty prominent in the dry down. I wouldn't say it's feminine though, it's pretty genderless imo. Performance is actually really good for a fresh fragrance. At first I thought it was poor, but I was going noseblind to it after wearing it so much. I wore 5 sprays before the gym and some errands, and asked my roommate if he could still smell it after 5 hours or so and he could still smell it from a few feet away. I could smell it on the shirt I wore the day before too in my car after over 24 hours. It's not too strong though I think it has a comfortable scent bubble/projection with great longevity. Imagination will always be my favorite, but this jumped to my #2 LV fragrance, and top 5 in my collection. If you're an imagination or tea lover, you're gonna love this one.

All the way from China for today’s scent! This is an amazing smelling clean shower gel ish scent on the opening. The intial blast made me think that if I could haw the perfect shower or soap scent it would be this. There is fresh clean note on the opening that is an amazing introduction to this fragrance that quickly fades to all a beautiful combination of floral, tea, and lemon to shine. On the dry down Rain Tea unfortunately gets just a little worse, the floral gets just a bit strong and takes on a tad of a powdery soapy note that just slightly overshadows the tea and lemon. Performance wise Rain Tea is absolutely astonishing in both longevity and projection for being the type of fragrance that it is. It lasted 8 to 9 hours on my skin and about 6 on my clothing. A 9/10 here. I feel like this is incredibly performance for a fragrance that isn’t dark, heavy and overally strong. Projection wise Rain Tea rises perfectly off my skin, it projects about 2 feet around me. An 8/10. I really enjoyed Rain Tea and I can only hope that it will release outside of China soon if it ever will. Overall this fragrance is an 8/10 for me. I love the way it smelled and performed, it is complex in almost all the right ways. The clean complex profile is only slightly held back by the slightly to strong floral with its powdery soapy quality.

Like others have commented, I liked this one best from the three new China releases. On my skin, it opens with fresh lemongrass and citrus, which only lasted about 15-20 minutes. Then it becomes more magnolia/rose centric scent, which lasted quite a while. Tea, if there is any, is very very faint, almost undetectable. So don't think we are getting a tea fragrance. The dominance of magnolia/rose makes this one slightly fem-leaning towards the drydown. There are some woody facets in the drydown too, but not very prominent on skin. On the blotter, the citrus and woody notes are more prominent, while magnolia/rose is a bit more subdued than on skin. Nevertheless, this one smells the best out of the three, so there you go.

Inspired by Chinese traditional tea art, Rain Tea is a clean, calming fragrance that opens with a crisp hit of lemongrass and citrus before quickly softening into a floral tea profile. A light honeyed sweetness from the magnolia and subtle grassy nuance give it that “after rain in a tea garden” vibe. Compared to Imagination, Raintea is way less soapy and slightly more floral and sweet. (Imagine removing the soapiness and adding that citrus and faint floralness. Longevity and Projection are very similar to imagination. Picked up back in China for ~2666 yuan, which is about 550 AUD or 387 USD. Don't think it's worthwhile to travel there just to get the fragrance, but if you're ever passing by, it's a great pickup. 9/10

Louis Vuitton Rain Tea is a better Imagination, from the same house. Retrying Imagination years later after wanting it in my collection, it smells more masculine and aromatic to me than what I previously thought. Not sure if it's the ginger or what. Many men do love that scent though and I love it back. For Rain tea the aromatics are dialed down, if it has any at all...besides the tea. It's a cool and sweet lemony tea. It has a good dose of ozonic pink rose in here making it unisex leaning more feminine to me. All blended into a smooth "drinking sweet tea with lemons by the pool with pink roses around" scent. So glad I waited.

Absolutely gorgeous, addictive fragrance. It’s what I hoped I would find when I tried The Yulong and Wulong Cha/Wulong Cha X. Such a beautiful, fresh citrus tea fragrance with the perfect amount of sweetness from the magnolia (I get more magnolia than rose, although the rose can still be slightly detected). I find this slightly more feminine leaning, but it is still unisex. One of the best LV fragrances for women in my opinion.

Fresh and light! Very uplifting summer scent. I expect them to delete all the non-Vuitton 'reminds me of' references again, so I'll type it here: it reminds me of Aire sutileza by Loewe. Both are quite shampoo-ish, but Sutileza leans a little bit fruitier, while Rain Tea leans more fresh watery and has a tiny hint of bitterness in the background.

I just got a 2 ml decant of Rain Tea 🥳 I ordered that for about $20 and a ten ml decant of MFK Baccarat Rouge 540 EDP for $30 or so. It has a nice, lemon aquatic green scent.

Εχω στην κατοχή μου 15 αρώματα του οίκου,το Rain Tea έγινε το αγαπημένο μου από την πρώτη στιγμή που το φόρεσα,εξαιρετικά πετυχημένη συνταγή,συγχαρητήρια 👏

Beautifully crafted with lemon touch over tea and wet woody gave rainy vibes with floral base and the good thing about that it has good lasting

I somehow get a vibe similar to Creed's Silver. The price like any other LV is a disappointment though

Smells like cactus garden and imagination but made more feminine. 9/10

I felt a moderate mixture of the cactus garden and other citrus perfumes Imagination & afteroon swim. I was thinking between this perfume and moonale, and I bought moontale because the scent of this perfume was attractive, but I didn't like the durability and bottle color. If you've been waiting for the cactus garden, I recommend this perfume rather than the expensive extra cost.

9.0 /10 imagine a green ( gound powder) tea with montagnes dupe of cactus garden, and light citrusy floral notes . That is what I am getting. If you like cactus garden a but cunt down on the lemon grass and freshen it up you get this. I really like it but it wont be easy to get.

Fresh citrus fragrance, unexpectedly the best of the 3 new releases. Nice projection with average fresh longevity. Just finished wearing the 3 of them, this entire line is not my cup of tea. If you want something fancy and niche, this line and new fantasmagory is not it.

Out of the 3 new release this is my fav. It is a Citrus Rosy lemongrass scent with a subtle hint of tea. totally agree that this is a more femine version of imagination. lovely

Excellent fragrance. A more powerful and straightforward version of Wūlóng Chá X; they smell very close to each other to my nose.

Neroli outrenoir with some LV touches... nice, but nothing special. Performance is solid.

The votes here are hilarious. This is clearly a feminine-leaning fragrance, and projection certainly isn't enormous. It's another likeable, middle-of-the-road LV issue that will be popular due to its brand and exclusivity. Longevity is very, very good for this type of fragrance, though. Magnolia dominates on me, not tea.

For the sake of fun/without having tried it, my guess is that it will be at least 50%+ similar to Cactus Garden or otherwise a twist on that theme.
