How to choose perfumes with black tea
Read the notes pyramid on each page before you buy perfumes with black tea. The opening tells you how it smells in the first minutes, while the base notes tell you what is left after a few hours.
Start from what you already own and enjoy. If a favourite bottle shares notes with one of the perfumes with black tea here, that is usually a safe next purchase.
How perfumes with black tea perform
In our wear tests, perfumes with black tea score 7 out of 10 for longevity on average, which means solid staying power that comfortably covers a work day.
Sillage, the trail a perfume leaves behind you, averages 6 out of 10, which points to moderate projection that stays fairly close.
In hot and humid conditions, the same perfumes average 6 out of 10 for longevity. Heat speeds up evaporation, so expect scents to feel stronger at first and fade sooner than in cool, dry air.
If staying power is your priority, start with Le Labo Thé Noir 29 Perfume: 2015 Unisex Eau de Parfum (8/10) and Giorgio Armani Privé Thé Yulong Perfume (6/10).

Buying tips for perfumes with black tea
Buy from trusted sellers. Genuine perfume should have clean packaging, a batch code and a consistent colour. The retailer links on each page are a good place to start, and prices that look too good to be true usually are.
Store the bottle well. Heat, light and humidity break perfume down, so keep it in its box, in a cool drawer, and away from the bathroom.
Change one thing at a time. If you are building a collection, add one new style at a time so you learn what you actually reach for.
