Francis Kurkdjian

"Elizabeth Arden Green Tea is a citrus-aromatic fragrance built around a breezy green tea accord brightened by sparkling lemon and bergamot. Widely associated with perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, it became one of the brand's most recognizable fresh scents after its 1999 launch. The composition is known for its clean, cooling, easygoing character, blending citrus, herbal facets, light florals, and a soft musky-oakmoss base. Its appeal comes from its affordability, simplicity, and its unmistakable spa-like freshness rather than from heavy complexity or dramatic projection. The scent is especially popular in warm weather and daytime settings, where its refreshing and non-intrusive personality works best. Although often sold today as Green Tea Scent Spray, the original Green Tea EDP is the classic release profile associated with the line."

What Changed

Reviews Summary

“Reviews consistently describe Green Tea as light, citrusy, refreshing, and easy to wear, with a distinctly clean spa-like feel. Users often praise its cheerful lemon-bergamot opening and relaxing green tea character, especially in hot weather. The most common criticism is weak longevity, with many wearers expecting to reapply through the day. Despite that, feedback is generally very positive because of the low price, pleasant versatility, and uncomplicated freshness.”
