A green tea perfume is one whose note list includes green tea, and every one of the eight we stock also lists a citrus note. For green tea with bright citrus, try CK One by Calvin Klein. For green tea in a darker setting, try Le Gemme Azaran by Bvlgari. Below, the eight are grouped by what the tea sits next to.
What does green tea smell like in perfume?
The tea itself is a good place to start. Green tea comes from the leaves and buds of Camellia sinensis. Unlike oolong or black tea, it skips the withering and oxidising stage. Wikipedia places its origin in China in the late first millennium BC, from where production spread across East Asia.
How the leaf is handled changes the cup. Chinese green teas are often pan-fired, while most Japanese ones are steamed, which Wikipedia says gives a sweeter, more grassy flavour. Matcha, a fine powder of shade-grown green tea leaves, is a related drink, but it is a different note and none of the perfumes below list it. We also left out perfumes that list another tea instead, such as matcha, white, black, oolong or jasmine tea.
A cup and a perfume note are not the same thing, so read a note list with care. A perfume that lists green tea tells you the note is on the list, not what went into the bottle. In perfumes, the tea tends to be one voice among several. Of the eight perfumes we list with this note, all eight also list a citrus accord, and six list a green one.
Where the note sits matters too. Perfumes are written in top, heart and base notes, and our guide to reading a notes list explains the three tiers. For where a green, citrus or floral perfume belongs, see our guide to fragrance families. In these eight, green tea is a top note twice, a heart note four times and a base note twice.

How to try green tea perfumes before you buy a bottle
A note list only goes so far. A 3ml decant of around 60 sprays is plenty to judge one on your own skin, so compare two on separate days. CK One is 6,21 € in 3ml, and it gives you green tea in the base of a citrus perfume. Le Gemme Azaran is 12,24 €, and it gives you the tea in the heart of a leather one. Wear each for a full day before you decide, and note which one you keep reaching for.
If one stands out, the 10ml decant of around 200 sprays suits weeks of daily wear, while the 30ml of around 600 sprays is the keeper. New to the format? Our guide to what a decant is explains it. And if you worry about buying unsmelled, how to choose perfume without smelling it walks through the steps.
