Summer Peaches By The Tea Room

Hate to call this a clean fragrance because it’s so much more than that but it’s a great way to review this. These notes are blended together so smoothly, the rose is the slightest teeniest tiniest undertone but I do love you can smell it in the far distant background. With notes from FRESH, almost green peaches with the sweet fresh grass note (not cloying), it comes off like a refreshingly sweet aura in a tea parlor from the classiest lady you know. Then, the green tea and cedar notes mixed in tone the feminine energy down to the coolest scent ever. My decant lasted forever so I only ever used just a bit. I received so many compliments, and I had to have the full bottle. It’s a staple in my collection. If I had to pick something to compare it to, I’d say this could easily be a diptyque fragrance. It doesn’t smell like any one in particular, but I own Tam Dao EDT and Orpheon EDP and this could literally be in a diptyque bottle next to it and I would not question that this is from their house! I love Strangers as they create such interesting, memory inducing scents that are very transportive, grounding, and overall wonderful. Bravo Strangers! (Next purchase will be Gheorghe and also possibly Salted Green Mango from them, if anyone is interested in that!)

I love peach perfumes. I really do. And I have tried them all. The problem is that these perfumes often tend to fade very quickly (I’m looking at you Tom Ford Bitter Peach). But this perfume did what I’ve rarely experienced with a peach perfume - it stayed on my skin for six hours. Six glorious hours. This is a beautiful perfume - the green tea note really makes the peach shine. It soft. It’s smooth. It’s worth ten full bottles.

Summer Peaches = Successful Prin. As a general peach hater and not always a lover of summery florals, this still won me over - due to a light hand with the fruit and just the right amount of green, sappy, airier ingredients so that this never cloys or overdoes it on the peachiness. Moderating force of the tea and grass means that the sweetness of honeysuckle and wisteria don't begin to get sickly or over-femme - while it tends to the feminine, this could be worn by anyone who wants to feel simply happy in first warm days of the year. The overall effect is clean and outdoorsy - maybe even just touching soapy/shampoo at some moments, but not obnoxiously so - rather than a gooey gourmand overload. Soft and velvety texture - peach skin for real - but this is a basket of perfectly just-ready and never overripe specimens, from a heritage orchard that does authentic fruit rather than syrupy sugary supermarket-ready disappointment. The downside of that subtlety is slightly disappointing longevity - only really there for 3-5h tops - though the drydown brings that beautifully restrained, tactile honeyed side to the fore, becoming almost clean-musky-sweet as it lingers a little longer. Price is reasonable for what it is. Really not my usual jam (I'm sorry but the pun was there and I took it), and I won't shell out for a bottle, but a delightful surprise as I expected to loathe it from the first drop due to my usual peachphobia. For those who love the note - this is a terrific, original, genuinely fresh take on the idea.

Summer Peaches By the Tea Room is one of two exclusive scents for summer 2021 which sold in Thailand only. I got mine in sample size. The scent opens up with sweet peaches mix with neroli and honeysuckle, then green tea dancing with the orris root makes it more powdery and rounded. The dry down develops to be a skin scent with a hint of musk. After wearing it, I considered this scent leaning forward to the feminine side, but men could wearing it too. The scent quite lasts long on my skin, almost 8 hrs. Overall, it very sweet, very feminine and sparking scent and perfect for summer.

In a humid summer where humidity reaches to more than 80% in August the choices are very limited when it comes to perfumes. That’s not the case with strangers parfumerie summer peaches by the tea room. In the opening I can sense the green tea followed by a sweetens of the honeysuckle and florals then it settles on a whiff of fresh wet grass. It has reasonable longevity you might think it disappears but it’s still there keeping you fresh
