Tea Menthe Citron ($55; lauramercier.com) is Laura Mercier’s newest fragrance, capturing the freshness of hand-picked mint and tea leaves, balanced with a touch of Cardomom and Cedarwood. Its a beautiful spring/summer fragrance that leans gourmand yet remains fresh through the dry down. The notes include Spearmint, Lemon, Cardamom, Orange Flower, Almond, Sandalwood, Cedarwood, Musks and Brown Sugar. The opening is both sweet and fresh, lots of freshness from the lemon and spearmint. A few minutes later the Orange Flower and Almond kick in, giving it a slight gourmand touch. The mint lingers through the dry down, mixed with the creaminess from the musk, sandalwood and brown sugar. The longevity is great for a EDT. I must say, I’ve never been disappointed with any of Laura Mercier’s fragrances so far, and Tea Menthe Citron is no exception. Its a gorgeously fresh, slightly sweet fragrance to try this season and one that can be worn all through the year. There’s also a Creme Body Cleanse and Gel Body Moisture in this line that can be layered on for some long lasting Tea Menthe Citron goodness!
