Above the Waves

État Libre d'Orange Above the Waves is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025. Above the Waves opens with Bergamot and Frankincense, settles into a heart of Rose and Tea, and dries down to a base of Cypress, Vetiver, and Cedar. État Libre d'Orange's Above the Waves carries a Favourite verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

A well-crafted tea fragrance that’s a safe bet for most tea lovers, though it might not shatter any paradigms. Think of it as a beautifully brewed cuppa - comforting and familiar, if not entirely groundbreaking. Some find it a touch derivative, but the consensus leans towards a refined, calming experience.

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date Formal

Given its fresh, clean aromatic profile and moderate longevity, this scent is perfect for casual wear and the office, creating an unobtrusive yet pleasant aura. While it’s suitable for some date settings, its lack of overtly seductive notes means it might not shine in formal occasions. Its lightness and freshness make it a good, albeit not top-tier, choice for active recovery.

About

Imagine a serene tea ceremony unfolding: a bright, zesty burst of bergamot and the subtle spice of frankincense introduce a heart of aromatic, slightly bitter tea. This verdant accord is soon joined by a whisper of delicate rose, settling into a sophisticated foundation of earthy vetiver, fresh cypress, and classic cedar. It's an airy, nuanced blend that evokes natural tranquility.
