The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2016, Oolong Tea by Jo Malone London is an Oriental fragrance for both women and men, crafted by the perfumer Serge Majoullier. This composition begins with a sweet and honeyed top note that gives way to the green freshness of oolong tea, balanced by warm spices and tobacco. The base notes of cacao and vanilla add a rich depth, making it a complex yet harmonious scent. Oolong Tea captures the essence of a sophisticated, nuanced aroma that is both comforting and invigorating.

How to wear it

For best results, apply this fragrance to pulse points and let it develop on your skin for about 10 minutes before heading out. The sweet and honeyed top notes are fleeting, but the warm spices and tobacco base continue to evolve throughout the day.
