Origin

White Tea is derived from the young leaves and buds of Camellia sinensis, harvested before full opening and minimally processed. In perfumery, the note is typically recreated using a blend of natural tea extracts, green facets, and synthetic molecules to capture its subtle aroma. Direct extraction yields only faint scent, so accords are often constructed to evoke the impression of freshly brewed white tea.

Usage in Perfumery

Perfumers use White Tea primarily as a heart or top note to impart freshness and a sense of purity. It blends well with citrus, light florals, soft musks, and gentle woods, enhancing the airy and uplifting qualities of a fragrance. White Tea is commonly found in modern, clean compositions and wellness-inspired scents.
