The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2016, Darjeeling Tea by Jo Malone London is a Floral Green fragrance that captures the essence of a classic tea experience. Created by perfumer Serge Majoullier, this scent opens with bright green and herbal notes, evoking the freshness of newly picked leaves. The composition then moves into a heart of white floral and aromatic nuances, balancing the initial vibrancy with a soft, delicate quality.

How to wear it

Darjeeling Tea is best applied in light layers for a delicate and nuanced effect. The green and herbal top notes are most prominent during the first hour, so apply it early to enjoy its full evolution throughout the day.
