Series 8 Tea: Matcha
Series 8 Tea: Matcha by Comme des Garçons is an unisex eau de toilette from 2013 in the premium price tier. It opens with matcha and shiso, moves into green tea and chamomile and dries down to cedarwood, musk and vetiver. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Matcha Green tea thickened up — creamy, vegetal, faintly nutty.
- Shiso Herbal, minty and slightly aniseed. Unusual and memorable.
Heart
- Green Tea Dry, slightly bitter, calm. Quiet and very easy to wear.
- Chamomile Herbal, apple-like and calming. Quiet and a bit hay-ish.
Dry-down
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
