Green Tea by Elizabeth Arden

It’s a lighter, more feminine take on MFK’s Aqua Media Cologne. Smells clean, green, and summery—very pleasant. However, it lasts the breath of a sigh and stays trapped in your personal bubble. I bought it with the matching body cream, which smells different. As a man, I’d recommend the original Aqua Media more, though it costs fifteen times as much (no exaggeration). PS: They’re by the same perfumer; it seems he revived the same formula.

For green tea lovers, this fragrance is so delicious that, despite its appalling longevity, it’s worth it for the price. It smells of green tea, bergamot, and white musk; if you listen closely, you’ll notice an earthy, fresh moss, like wet soil. I detect a hint of ginger, even though it’s not listed. Don’t expect evolution; instead, enjoy its clean scent while it lasts. I adore Elizabeth Arden: they’re good and affordable, but be prepared to carry the bottle and reapply every two hours. It lasts like a body mist, vanishes quickly, and is only noticeable if you press your nose against your clothes; on skin, nothing. 1. Ideal for hot days, comfortable and minimalist (only you can smell it, perfect for transport, hospitals, or funerals). 2. For the price, you can replicate it without mercy. 3. 100% unisex. 4. A safe option for the gym. 5. If you know Yves Rocher’s Thé Vert, let’s say this is a dupe that’s less green but with more notes.

I like it, but oh, it’s trying to kill me. I don’t know what’s in the citrus notes, but once I apply it, my throat itches and it’s: aaah, help, I’m suffocating.

It used to be a charm… years ago… now Victoria Secret’s Blums last longer than this Eau de Parfum… what a pity.

I was looking for something very fresh and unisex, as aquatic scents aren’t for me. I wanted something delicate and light, and Elizabeth Arden’s Green Tea is exactly that. Light, tender, and genderless. The opening is citrusy but very subtle, the heart is floral with white flowers, and the base is totally green. You need a very keen nose to notice all the notes, but for me, it just smells of tea, fresh, summery, and relaxing. Buy it, you won’t regret it.

The scent is incredible – citrusy and herbal, neither strong nor synthetic, like a lemon tea. However, be warned: it doesn’t last on the skin at all. Despite being cheap, it’s gone in under an hour. It’s a shame because it’s hard to find another citrus like this, but I won’t be buying it again due to its poor longevity.

This version is better than the lavender one; there’s plenty of variety, but I didn’t like that one. I’d recommend this. If tea isn’t your thing, you might also enjoy the mimosa or yuzu.

I agree with Morning Dew; it’s almost a therapeutic scent. It calms, relaxes and comforts. It’s like a breath after holding your breath underwater or after a exhausting day. You feel transported to an oriental garden or forest, with a ray of sun filtering through the trees and peace. It’s clean, fresh, green and soft, rarely warm. It could seem soapy. The orange peel comes through strongly. I sprayed several times to go to uni and a classmate said she’d stay close because it smells lovely. At the same time, it gives a baby-like sensation.

Perhaps the most beautiful perfume I’ve ever owned. Simple, distinctive (especially when worn out), and versatile for everything from work to weddings. If you enjoy herbal, citrus, and fresh notes, it’s a winner. Although marketed as feminine, it’s superbly unisex and smells delicious on men. Its only flaw is that it doesn’t last, but I still love it immensely.

I smelled it after a trip and was instantly hooked. Upon smelling it, I associated the herbal freshness of Seville’s streets with the citrus and green breeze of orange trees. It’s incredibly fresh, light, and therapeutic; every time I wear it, it brings me peace. I also use it to balance out other overly sweet perfumes that overwhelm me. I wear it constantly and it lasts on clothes from morning until night, although by the end of the day, I only notice it close to the skin. It is certainly one of my favourites for any time of day, especially for enjoying at home.

Very cool, but it evaporates as soon as you apply it.

I love it when my wife wears it; it smells of green tea, super refreshing and very summery. The downside is the trail is short and it doesn’t last long, but if it’s a good price, it’s worth it.

Hello everyone. Green Tea is one of my all-time favourites. Herbal and fresh, without that musty smell that many fresh perfumes leave on the skin. It stays stable from the start. It’s true it doesn’t last long, but if I reapply, the problem is solved. Current, fresh, comforting, and delicate aroma. I’ll keep buying it forever.

A unique fragrance; I bought it out of nostalgia because it reminds me of my grandmother. For me, the notes that stand out most are green tea and mint.

My great-grandmother’s perfume. When I was a child, we used to go to her house for tea, almost a ritual with cakes and filtered tea; they never used bags, they used Heno de Pravia for both cologne and soap, so her house smelled of a mix of tea with citrus aromas, just like Green Tea. Smelling it transports me back to my childhood and her hugs, which is why I’m indignant that someone would dismissively call it ‘grandma’s smell’. Beautiful, fresh, and very wearable. All-rounder. It will be part of my collection, hoping it’s never discontinued.
