Heritage Nuzzle

Imagine sitting on a Hanoi sidewalk, a glass of clear iced tea in front of you, glistening with a few droplets of condensation. The first whiff hits with the fresh sweetness of cool pear and blooming jasmine, like the initial sip of chilled iced tea. The astringent green tea note, true to Hanoi’s iconic drink, evokes lively street-side conversations. Camellia and lily of the valley add a refined elegance, reminiscent of old Hanoi’s sophistication, where flower vendors’ scents wafted through the streets. Finally, vetiver and soft musk wrap around like a gentle embrace, leaving a warm, soothing feeling—like quietly watching the flow of passersby as the ice in your tea slowly melts, yet its soul remains intact. Overall, this fragrance is a poetic lens on Hanoi’s iced tea, intimate and steeped in nostalgia. I love it ❤️

This is one for hot days: a soft green tea with a little bit of fruitiness and some gentle jasmine. As a connoisseur of tea scents, I can confidently say that Heritage Nuzzle is not specifically a jasmine tea; rather, it’s a green tea that you’re drinking near some jasmine flowers. As a warning, the jasmine is slightly indolic. With this mixture of notes, the indoles don’t take over, but if you’re sensitive to them, watch out. Eventually, Heritage Nuzzle softens into a gentle musk. The tea notes perform well, though – better than many other fragrances in this particular genre. It’s a lovely fragrance, not quite as unusual and exciting as Deep Lullaby or Creamy Tide, but worthy of a full bottle. I often reach for it as an everyday fragrance, as it’s very suitable for my hot climate

Smells like something I've smelt in my childhood. Perhaps a perfume or some scented stationery. For context, I grew up in South East Asia (not Vietnam though) and I've never smelt a similar or the same smell anywhere else but my home country. It's a light floral scent, simply put. As someone else already mentioned, indolic due to the jasmine but I don't personally find it overly so. Gucci Bloom is more indolic than this lol. I like it a lot because of the nostalgia factor. Quite similar to Creamy Tide from the same perfume house though, except that one has some fruit notes. This is a lovely fragrance, but if you have that one already then I don't think there is a need for this one.

Soft, green tea and jasmine drifting through morning fog. This one captures Hanoi’s calm side i have evr been lived in - the quiet cafés, the misty lakes, the feeling that time moves differently there. It’s gentle, polite, clean. Maybe too polite. I find it beautiful but slightly safe; it doesn’t surprise me, though it’s the one I reach for most often in everyday life.

I really love this perfume. The opening is very fresh, and the pear note isn't sweet at all. The scent of lily of the valley and tea then gives it a very clean quality, almost like fresh laundry or detergent. The scent is strong and long-lasting; I spray it on my pillow so I can smell it at night.
