Mykonos Tea Poetry is a floral-tea extrait de parfum of rose, jasmine, ylang-ylang, orange flower and smoked black tea, sweetened with candied fruit and honey. Mykonos describes it as deep, romantic and soulful, with a warm, sophisticated trail. It is one of our rose perfumes.
How Mykonos Tea Poetry develops on skin
Rose, jasmine and ylang-ylang open with a rich, romantic bouquet. In the heart, smoked black tea meets candied fruit, balsam, orange flower and a touch of pepper, which gives the florals a darker, slightly smoky depth. The smoked tea carries on into the base, where honey and cedarwood make the drydown warm and smooth. Mykonos sums up the accord as floral, balsamic and woody.
Longevity, sillage and projection
Mykonos rates Tea Poetry at 10+ hours, with moderate to strong sillage and moderate to strong projection. Its intensity is tagged strong, so two or three sprays last well into the evening.
When to wear Tea Poetry, and who it suits
Tea Poetry is tagged for autumn and winter and for daily wear, evenings and special occasions; the honey, balsam and smoked tea feel most at home on cooler days. It is labelled feminine and sits in our women's range, for anyone who loves a warm, romantic floral with a tea twist. It is an original Mykonos creation. In our range, it sits closest to Moroccan Vanilla, Black Opera and Satin Blanc. Curious about tea in perfume? Read our guide to tea perfumes.
