Origin

Ceylon Tea is derived from the leaves of Camellia sinensis grown in Sri Lanka, formerly known as Ceylon. In perfumery, the note is typically created using natural tea leaf extracts, infusions, or reconstructed through aroma molecules that mimic its characteristic scent. Sustainable sourcing practices are increasingly important due to the agricultural nature of tea cultivation.

Usage in Perfumery

Perfumers use Ceylon Tea primarily in the heart or top notes to impart freshness and a sophisticated green nuance. It blends well with citrus, florals, light woods, and aquatic notes, and is often found in modern, unisex, or green-themed fragrances. Its lively character helps to brighten and lift compositions, adding a contemporary twist.
