Green Tea Scent??

gammaO — Sun, 20 Apr 2014 15:47:57 GMT

Hello Beauties. Happy Easter.

I'm looking for suggestions for a green tea scent. I've tried the Elizabeth Arden but wondered what else was out there. Thanks for your help.

I love that scent! Several years ago I fell in love with a body lotion/cream that Sephora carried. I use lotions/creams rather than perfumes as I tend to be heavy handed. This was sublime!

Unfortunately I don't recall what the brand was, but your request is going to send me to Sephora's site and search for Green Tea fragrances. You should do that, too!

LOVE green tea fragrance! I have Elizabeth Arden's and many of her mixes (Green Tea Summer, Green Tea Lavender, Green Tea Tropical, etc.) that I picked up cheap at Marshall's. I will have to look into these other suggestions, thanks ladies!

Victor by Perlier has a good one. Not overpowering like their others.

This is not a scent but I love the J.R.Watkins Hand Soap in Aloe and Green Tea bought at Target. Makes washing your hands a lovely experience!

Bvlgari Green Tea--I have been using it for more than 30 years! It is expensive but you can find it in online fragrance sites for great prices.

My MIL wears Elizabeth Arden's Green Tea fragrance, and I love it on her. I have one from C.O. Bigelow that's nice.

I just purchased the EA GT to wear this summer and I hope it will be lovely for me. Bulgari sounds special also, but is more than I am willing to pay right now; I usually only splurge on my Chanel Eau Premiere.

That's one of them I use as well. Love fresh scents... Hate strong over powering ones.

Years ago I had the Perlier Victor line of Green Tea and loved it but ran out. I then purchased Elizabeth Arden's Green Tea, loved it but ran out so I repurchased the Perlier one again when I saw they had it back about 2 yrs ago and I dont like it this time. I mean I kinda like it but dont love it. I think I might buy myself another bottle of EA's, I love the GT scent this time of year.

Keeping my eye on your thread tho, I'm not in any hurry!

Good morning.

I may just stick with the Elizabeth Arden. It's reasonably priced, easy to find and has a very nice true tea scent. Fragrance Net.com has some great prices.

Thanks all for your input.

I just rec'd Elizabeth Arden Green Tea and love it! Even DH commented he thought it was fresh and good for warmer weather. This is a winner, winner, chicken dinner!

I've used ELizabeth Arden's green tea fragrance, Perlier's green tea fragrance, and Calgon's green tea fragrance. They are all nice. I probably like the EA one the best though.

This is the perfect Green Tea. When it was launched all those years ago, I smelled that wonderful, fresh fragrance before I even got the box open.

I stocked up I loved it so much. Then they stopped promoting it and never started gain, even with all the 5 stars when they did. It has to do with the bottom line...$$$ or they would have continued it. Being Victor may play a role in it's almost disappearance. It shows up on occasion.

I searched every Green Tea on the market and nothing came close to this one.

All this talk about EA - I have to share. I was gifted with an EA gift card. I finally finished up a Lancome foundation (much raved about, I hated it) (bought on HSN along with a Genefique serum and lifting nightcream which I also really dislike due the strong perfumed scent in both) and went to EA with my card. I'm never buying another single foundation over the television - what a difference sampling three different but very close shades. Left with the Ceramide foundation and this past week I can't tell you what a difference in my office look. I'm so happy! Ended up buying other things, of course, but think my days of TV shopping for makeup and skin care and ending up returning so much of it. Newer lines like It, Tarte, even Laura Geller - sometimes the oldies (like EA) really are the goodies. I'm back to EA after a long time; and I'm going to revisit the Estee Lauder counter - found a couple of lipsticks that I used to use that look better and feel better than anything I'm using now. Sorry - this is long; for once wanted to share my good fortune vs. complaining about products.

L'Occitane has some green tea scents. I think one of them is green tea and mint. Very refreshing for hot summer days.
