Calice Becker

"Imperial Tea is a minimalist unisex Eau de Parfum centered on the impression of freshly brewed jasmine green tea. Its character is transparent, airy, lightly tannic, and floral rather than dense or sweet. Jasmine provides the luminous white-floral effect, while tea contributes a green, dry, slightly earthy freshness. The composition was conceived with the principal notes presented in a largely linear relationship rather than a strongly separated traditional pyramid. Its opening is often praised for its unusually realistic tea character, although the drydown can become simpler and closer to the skin. The original black-flacon release belongs to Kilian's Asian Tales collection and was later distinguished from the separate 2024 revival."

Fun Facts

The original presentation used a 50 ml black refillable flacon in a black lacquer coffret with a red tassel.

Kilian later revived the name in 2024 in a blue flacon with a distinct formula and collection placement.

Reviews Summary

“Imperial Tea is widely regarded as a remarkably realistic interpretation of steaming Chinese jasmine green tea. Its opening is transparent, floral, green, and gently tannic, while the later stages may feel linear, thinner, or more musk-forward. Performance is generally soft, with moderate-to-short longevity and a quick transition to a close skin scent.”
