Wulong Cha

Wulong Cha by Nishane is a clean, fresh, and uplifting fragrance that captures the essence of a pure green tea with vibrant citrus accents. It opens with a bright burst of bergamot, mandarin orange, and litsea—a lemongrass-like note that adds a natural, slightly herbal freshness. This citrus is not sharp or artificial; instead, it feels like freshly cut lemon peels balanced with the cool green note of tea. Over time, the fragrance settles into a soft, aromatic green tea tone—crisp, slightly bitter, but never overwhelming. The fig and musk create a subtle sweetness and grounding base, adding depth without sweetness or cloying qualities. Longevity is solid for a fresh scent, lasting up to 8–10 hours with moderate sillage and projection. The scent is linear and gentle, making it suitable for daytime wear in spring and summer. While it leans feminine to some due to its clean, airy quality and green tea note, it is widely regarded as unisex. Many compare it to high-end spa or luxury hotel lobbies—clean, refined, and inviting. Performance is strong, but some find it relies more on bottle quality than standout olfactory depth, and the price remains a point of contention. Not all find the tea note deeply defined, but fans appreciate its realism and transparency. It’s ideal for those who enjoy natural green tea scents, minimalist fragrances, or the feeling of being refreshed and centered. Best tried with a decant before committing to a full bottle.
