Hey guys, let’s talk about a summer fragrance that stands out from the rest. Nishane, the Turkish fragrance house, is well-known for its potent Extrait de Parfum fragrances, and Wūlóng Chá is one of the few summer scents that comes in such a high concentration. A little hint about the fragrance: the word Chá means tea in many Asian languages, including Japanese. Intrigued? Let’s dive deeper into this unique scent and provide a thorough review.
Quick Facts:
Smell:
As you might’ve guessed from the introduction, Wūlóng Chá from Nishane is a powerful summer fragrance with a dominant and unique tea note. This beautiful tea note is accompanied by a very fresh lemon aroma. There aren’t many tea-based fragrances on the market, and Wūlóng Chá is one of the purest incarnations. To me, it’s like a trip to East Asia.
This fragrance takes me back to Japan in August – not the bustling cities of Tokyo or Osaka, but the smaller towns and countryside, the Inaka. Picture this: it’s hot and humid, the sun is shining, and you’re visiting ancient temples and riding your bicycle through the town. In need of shade and refreshment, you find a small family-owned restaurant and enjoy a freshly brewed green tea. That’s the essence of Wūlóng Chá.
Surprisingly fresh and light for an Extrait de Parfum, it’s perfect for hot summer days and daytime wear. It’s a unique scent that’s still pleasant and captivating – something unusual for western society, but that’s precisely what makes it so intriguing.
Longevity:
And now for the great news: in my review, I found that Wūlóng Chá’s Extrait de Parfum concentration gives it fantastic longevity among summer perfumes. It’s potent and long-lasting, while still keeping things light enough for high summer. Thumbs up indeed.
