Fragrance information:

2014: the world took its first breath of Mandarin Tea Shanghai Tang. By character, a feminine fragrance drawing from the fern and citrus families. It was created by perfumer Carlos Benaïm. An eau de toilette — light-footed, but utterly unforgettable.

It carries a noticeable sillage, leaving a trail that lingers pleasantly in the air. It's a light presence — longevity is low, perfect for those who love something airy. Country of origin — China: no wonder the fragrance turned out this refined. Mandarin Tea Shanghai Tang unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.

Key fragrance characteristics

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The note pyramid of Mandarin Tea evolves as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The signature of Shanghai Tang is recognizable in details that define the fragrance identity. Every decision feels deliberate, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de toilette sets the right density and pace of development.

The olfactory framework is driven by these accords: Citrus, Floral and Wood with each one in a clear role. The gender direction is feminine, which makes the scent profile easier to read. For persistence Low indicates a stable lasting impression. In projection Noticeable describes the way the scent radiates.

In a unified mixed pyramid the notes arrive together with a energetic fresh mood: Lemon, Mandarin, Neroli, Petitgrain and Tea.

The deeper layers are read as a continuous motion from lift to depth, which keeps the fragrance coherent.

From the group perspective the composition is built around Citrus, Floral, Green and Wood.

In summary Mandarin Tea sounds complete from start to finish — the start forms character, the central phase adds depth, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the scent structures best experienced through real development.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
Low (1 to 2 hours)
2
Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance.

The fragrance combines notes of green tea with citrus accents, as well as cool floral undertones and resinous nuances. It's truly refreshing, yet it smells very vibrant and attention-grabbing )
