Perfume Parlour Azure Matcha is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021. Azure Matcha opens with Matcha, Bergamot, Lemon, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Leather, Cedar, Patchouli, and Tobacco, and dries down to a base of Mate, Musk, Powdery, and Ambergris. Perfume Parlour's Azure Matcha carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

Perfume Parlour's budget version of Montale Blue Matcha, the cool green tea-and-leather unisex. It captures the crisp matcha-citrus opening and the earthy leather-tobacco-cedar heart well, though the smooth suede drydown reads a touch flatter and it doesn't hold quite as long as the niche original.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Azure Matcha follows Montale Blue Matcha closely: a fresh, cooling rush of green matcha tea over zesty lemon, bergamot and Sicilian mandarin, with tart black currant adding a juicy edge. The heart turns earthier and more masculine - black leather and tobacco wrapped in cedar and patchouli leaf, giving it that smooth, slightly smoky depth. The drydown settles into mate, powdery musk and a touch of ambergris. Against the original, the PP take keeps the matcha-citrus opening crisp and the leather-tobacco accord intact, but renders the suede-powder finish a little simpler and shorter, reading marginally more 2D. Blue Matcha was a respectable performer for Montale, and this dupe wears a touch lighter and fades sooner. A versatile, fresh-yet-earthy unisex scent for daytime, the office and casual wear across the warmer seasons.
