Trat Tea — the tea-woody character of Mabra Parfums
Mabra Parfums Trat Tea is an oil-based perfume released in 2025.
This unisex fragrance is for those who appreciate expressive compositions with a deep, distinctive presence and are not afraid of unconventional combinations.
The release is built around the contrast between fresh bergamot, dry black tea and rich oud.
The fragrance was created by perfumer Brahim Mohamed.
Trat Tea reflects the approach of a young French niche house that appeared on France’s perfume map in 2021 and immediately chose to focus on bold, distinctive formulas.
There is no attempt at understated everyday wearability here: the composition is designed for those who enjoy a rich presence and a striking trail.
The fragrance pyramid and development
Officially designated top, middle and base notes have not been announced for Trat Tea, so it is more accurate to consider the composition as a unified accord.
It combines the citrus spark of bergamot, the astringent dryness of tea and the dark woody depth of oud.
This combination creates the impression of strong black tea, gradually interwoven with resinous and refined woody nuances.
On the skin, the fragrance may be perceived differently depending on temperature, humidity and individual skin chemistry.
Bergamot adds freshness and a slight bitterness to the opening, black tea makes the scent feel composed and elegant, while oud creates a dense, warm and recognizable backdrop.
As a result, Trat Tea is not simply a citrus or woody fragrance, but balances freshness, a beverage-like accord and oriental depth.
Character, sillage and wearability
Trat Tea belongs to the citrus and woody fragrance families, complemented by a beverage-like facet.
Its sillage is described as very strong, so this oil-based perfume is best reserved for situations where a noticeable perfume presence is appropriate: evening outings, cool weather, special occasions or leisurely walks.
This is a versatile, genderless fragrance, but its character will especially appeal to those looking for a composition that is neither sweet nor obviously floral.
Trat Tea can emphasize individuality, add a composed quality to an outfit and leave behind a distinctive tea-woody impression.
In warm weather, it should be applied particularly carefully, as high temperatures may intensify the oud’s density and the overall volume of the sillage.
Exact recommendations for the number of applications on skin and clothing have not been provided for this release.
Given its oil-based concentration and very strong sillage, it is sensible to start with a minimal amount and assess its development gradually; apply the fragrance to fabric only after testing its reaction on a small, inconspicuous area.
Information about other concentrations of Trat Tea is also unavailable.
