The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Elizabeth Arden's rich heritage in American cosmetics and fragrances is evident in this composition, which marries the crispness of green tea with exotic florals and warm base notes. The fragrance opens with a vibrant burst of green tea, bringing an invigorating freshness that quickly transitions into a heart of jasmine and ylang-ylang. These floral notes add depth and warmth without overpowering the initial zest. The base notes of sandalwood and vanilla provide a sensual finish that rounds out the entire composition.

How to wear it

This fragrance is best applied with two sprays — it develops quickly on the skin but keeps its warmth throughout the day. Avoid wearing it in excessively humid conditions as the green tea note can become too sharp.
