Green tea-inspired scents that evoke serenity for this spring
Fragrance brands are bottling the earthy scent into perfumes that are perfect for warmer days.
As the weather warms and our wardrobes shift to lighter fabrics and brighter colors, it's also the perfect moment to refresh your fragrance. The deep, musky perfumes that carried you through the cold are ready to be swapped for something more vibrant and airy—something that captures the essence of spring. And what better scent to lean into than one inspired by everyone’s current drink obsession: matcha.
While it might seem like an odd choice for a perfume, fragrance brands are fully leaning into the green tea-inspired scent, crafting blends that are unexpectedly fresh, cozy, and addictive. Think soft vanilla, earthy green tea, and creamy undertones that mirror the comfort of your go-to iced matcha latte. It's the feel-good note of the season—and it’s here (yes, matcha) to stay.
We scoured the internet for the best matcha-inspired and matcha-scented perfumes. Keep scrolling to shop our favorites and find the perfect scent for your go-to fragrance.
