Thé Vert (Green Tea) collection from Roger & Gallet is this summers UK launch. Now when I heard Green Tea, I thought it might be a bit odd, but it’s actually gorgeous. When you delve into the origins of the fragrance, Roger & Gallet say that it’s inspired by Mount Fuji at sunrise. The notes of the fragrance include green tea, citrus and woody notes. Taking inspiration from oriental tradition, the scent is designed to balance body and mind. So it’s a very light and pretty scent, designed to be subtle and fresh.
The fragrance has been brought to life in whole host of different products. The new range will include a Green Tea Fragrant Wellbeing Water, Perfumed Soaps, Nourishing Body Lotion and Relaxing Shower Gel. I had the pleasure of trying two different products from the new collection.
First up we have the Roger & Gallet Green Tea Fragrant Wellbeing Water, which is available in three different sizes. I’m a big fan of some of the other water fragrances from Roger & Gallet and this one is just as lovely. The Roger & Gallet Green Tea Eau Fraiche Fragrance comes in the pretty glass bottle, which has delicate lettering and gold detailing. The fragrance is an eau de toilette, so it lasts well on the skin but it does need topping up throughout the day. The fragrance is designed to suit all skin types and can be worn in the sun, which makes it a perfect holiday scent.
The second item I’ve been testing is the Roger & Gallet Green Tea Perfumed Soap. The soaps from Roger & Gallet are the fanciest soap I’ve ever used. They always come packaged in delicate tissue paper, which lets the scent penetrate through. Which makes them great for popping in your drawers to scent your clothes, but I also leave mine in the bathroom to leave everything smelling fresh. The soaps are created using a very unique process using artisan tradition. This gives the soap their perfect scent, but also makes them very soft and gentle on the skin.
The Green Tea range is a great addition to Roger & Gallet’s line up. The new products have all the great properties I’ve come to expect from the brand. I’m sure that beauty fans will love adding the new scent to their collection! The whole range is exclusive to House of Fraser and it’s available here.
