First date at the tea shop · Black Tea, Mandarin, Sandalwood blend

Mandarin tea, creamy floral ylang ylang and creamy sandalwood; shy and adorable.

A first date at a small tea shop: black tea and mandarin share the opening, ylang ylang adds a creamy floral note, and sandalwood is smooth and creamy, shy but adorable. Great for the living room when you invite someone over, a tea table or a reading nook. Keep ylang ylang to exactly one drop so the scent never gets heavy.

How it unfolds

On opening. Mandarin (gently sweet, softer than orange) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Black tea (steeped, warm and slightly malty); ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Sandalwood (creamy, smooth and long-lasting) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
