Green Tea

by Francis Kurkdjian

Elizabeth Arden Green Tea is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1999, created by Francis Kurkdjian. The fragrance opens with Mint, Rhubarb, Bergamot, and Lemon, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Oakmoss, Fennel, and Musk, and dries down to a base of Tea, Caraway, Celery Seeds, and Amber.

Our verdict on Green Tea: Favourite

A divisive yet iconic 'cheapie' from the 90s, Elizabeth Arden Green Tea is either delightfully fresh or smells like a cleaning product. It's a citrus-forward, light scent that performs like a body mist, but you can overspray without guilt thanks to the price.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh, clean, and inoffensive profile, coupled with poor longevity and sillage, makes it perfect for office or sport where you don't want to overpower. Reviewers often mention it as an 'after shower' or 'gym' scent, but its lack of projection means it's generally unsuitable for dates or formal events.

About

Opens with a zesty burst of lemon and bergamot, sharpened by a vibrant mint and tangy rhubarb. This bright citrus quickly blends into a green heart where delicate jasmine meets earthy oakmoss and a hint of spicy fennel. The base settles into a refreshing green tea accord, underpinned by warm amber, subtle clove, and unusual celery seeds, creating a unique and clean dry-down.
