Perfume Parlour Black Tea Water is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015. Black Tea Water opens with Black Tea and Tobacco, settles into a heart of Oud and Rose, and dries down to a base of Woody, Leather, and Patchouli. Perfume Parlour's Black Tea Water carries a Favourite verdict, a smoky-led wear.

Black Tea Water is Perfume Parlour's run at Bvlgari's Eau Parfumee au The Noir, that gauzy smoky tea-rose. The dupe lands the black-tea-and-rose core but plays it heavier and a little flatter than the airy original, pushing the leather up while losing some of the gossamer transparency.

About

Black Tea Water opens with a smoky breath of black tea and dry tobacco, instantly recognisable as the tea-rose territory Bvlgari mapped out. Where Eau Parfumee au The Noir stayed gauzy and enlivening, Perfume Parlour gives the same notes more body and a touch more sweetness, so the opening reads denser rather than translucent. The heart unfurls a smoky tea-rose as damask rose threads through a soft oud, warm but never sharp. The drydown settles into leather, woody notes and earthy patchouli that lend it a refined, slightly austere close. It stays fairly close to the skin like the original, though the louder leather facet gives this version a bit more presence early on. Best in cooler months and for evening or smart-casual wear, it is an approachable budget route into a smoky tea fragrance.
