How it unfolds

On opening. Spearmint (sweet and cool, softer than peppermint, with a hint of chewing gum); lemon leaf (green, slightly bitter and very fresh); pomelo (bittersweet and fragrant, very Vietnamese) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Green tea (fresh, a little grassy and clean) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. With no woody or resin base note, this blend fades fairly quickly — switch it on again after 1–2 hours to keep the room scented.
