Very fruity and very unisex. I would say 60% feminine – 40% masculine.
Different from the usual creed fragrances. No creed typical ambergris at all but Simple and fresh. It has a clean soapy/shampoo vibe that is so pleasant. I dont get the tea note and there is some vetiver in the base. Average performance.
I got it heavily discounted (77 $/ 100 ml). Otherwise it doesn’t worth the retail price.

For a citrus based fragrance, Asian Green Tea packs a quality punch. It does not fade as quickly as most citrus perfumes–I like that. I find it refreshing and feminine. My nose picks up the tea note as well as a gentle waft of musk. Asian Green Tea is a citrus-green that will not wilt in the heat of summer.

There’s a freshness to this that is very appealing. It’s soft and unthreatening, but it’s very pleasant. I get green apple skin, pears, fresh laundry, white flowers, lemon. A hint of scrubbed-clean, aromatic wood maybe.
Is it feminine? I don’t really ascribe to labelling scent with gender but if we mean heavily floral, it doesn’t wear that way on me (I’m a 6’2 guy, by the way). Mind you, I wear Chanel No.19 and get away with it. The alpha-bro 1 Million crowd certainly aren’t going to be bathing in this one before a night at the club anytime soon, but it doesn’t smell like a WI meeting either.
I think of fragrances in terms of people, and the way I think of this one is like one of those Abercrombie & Fitch models, a fresh, clean-cut guy, nice body, cute smile, boy-next-door, who’s grown up a bit and stopped forgetting to put his shirt on anytime there’s a camera around. This fragrance is what that guy might wear once he hits 30.

As an Asian who drinks green teas, I can guarantee you that, this perfume is neither Asian nor green, also doesn’t contain one wiff of tea. Nada. No. Nothing at all.

Quite possibly one of the best “clean laundry” smells I’ve tried. Yes, it does smell like lemon or apple green tea, but the overall feel is very clean, like fresh cool linens. Very strong and long lasting as well.
If you like long lasting clean scents, this should definitely be on your list! Unlike some others, this is definitely worth the price! This is actually my favorite Creed scent, aside from Virgin Island Water and fruity batches of Aventus.
As for whether it’s more unisex or feminine, i believe it’s perfectly unisex. There is a point halfway through the dry down that is a bit more feminine than masculine, but on a man, it comes across like laundry detergent, so there’s absolutely nothing to fear when wearing this one. It reminds me a bit of Herbal Essences shampoo as well.
“Laundry detergent” and “shampoo” sound like terrible descriptions for a scent, but once you smell it, you’re sure to understand why this is a good thing. As far as clean scents go, this is likely my favorite, aside from Dior Homme Cologne.

Tried a sample at a shop, smells 100% like Lipton Iced Tea (Lemon).

کاری فوق العاده از کرید .فقط حیف که چنین کاری پخش بو و ماندگاری متوسط حتی رو به پایینی داره .بیشترین نتی که حس میشه ازنظرمن چای سبز هست که بوی لیمو و رطوبت ازلابلای اون مشام رو نوازش میده

It starts out fresh, sharp and mostly citrusy, quickly changes to pleasant lemon tea, and soon after that black current and floral notes kick in as well and give it a bit of sweet touch. Gets sweeter as time goes. I’d say it’s feminine.
It’s light, nice and very safe, cool, mature and soothing. Nothing harsh or irritating here, but nothing special either; It’s even a little bit boring.
Longevity is not bad.
During warmer days I will use my sample and probabely enjoy it too. But won’t buy a full bottle.
To buy this, one must really love to smell like floral lemon tea. On the other hand, it might be a good choice for those who are tired of usual sweet gourmand or florals and seek something different.

Did they reformulate this already? I’ve smelled asian green tea on two separate occasions and they were entirely different scents. One a synthetic, green apple, shampoo. The other a gorgeous, ambergris, berry, punch (20x better.) Tis a shame the difference is so drastic. I wish creed would stop playing these games!
Objelaben – :
Upon first sniff I think of fruity shampoo. Some have suggested/labeled this to be unisex….for me the verdict is still out. I am not sure if this is unisex; others have mentioned this to lean more feminine than masculine, I am in partial agreement. Can I see us men wearing this…yes, however there maybe some reservations.
Asian Green Tea opens with a pear-like, green apple feel with the green tea accompaniment. This fragrance would bring out a more masculine feel with a bit more sandalwood, even bergamot and amber. Will revisit soon with revision….
…..so, I have since given up on this fragrance. My wife loved it. I cannot bring myself to wearing this as it is just to feminine! There are some fragrances I think men can get away with that are considered feminine, however, this is not one of them!!! Great fragrance just for the feminine community, in my heterosexual opinion. ;o( Going to let my wife rock this. I’ll get my opportunity to smell when she wears this.
This reminds me of Jardin d’Amalfi but with less sharpness but a more pronounced green tea effect!! (By the way, this, Acqua Fiorentina, and Jardin d’Amalfi share a lot of the same notes…just sayin’)

All I’m getting is celery. Not unpleasant but not groundbreaking, either.
urik.1990 – :
Mmm very unusual.
Light and fresh, but with a strong peppery oriental kick. I get some citrus too.
BRUIFEEFFINIA – :
It really does smell like green tea with that light, soft, dry powder aroma. Thats complimented with green apple, lemon (wish it were lime), and a syrupy blackcurrant. Although it leans towards the feminine side, its still quite unisex. On a guy it would smell like a pleasant laundry detergent. I’m impressed 😛 So A+. But for a company that has catered to royalty, it could have been better. I was expecting a fruity, musky, herbal version of Aventus for the summer. But this takes a more expected approach. It works though. I spray it in my hair; it smells like shampoo.

Creed has to be one of my favorite houses for simple/sophisticated scents – Asian Green Tea easily has become a favorite, and it easily stands out in my collection as something that gives me ‘heart-eyes’!
The main thing that made me fall in love with this composition was finally finding a perfume that was energizing & zingy, WITHOUT any woods thrown into the mix!
Asian Green Tea is, for the most part, a linear scent – what you smell is what you get! I pick up a metric ton of sweet mandarin, green tea, a hint of lemon, and MAYBE a dash of violet somewhere fleeting, throughout. Little bit of bergamot/neroli right at the top of the fragrance before it dries on the skin, as well, but the rest of the pyramid is just a supporting role.
Wonderful longevity – easily 6-10 hours, and moderate sillage.

This is another very, very disappointing offering by Creed for me.
The so called ‘seller’ of their AO line, the notes looked very promising apart from 2 – the mandarin and violet flower combo which always for reason on me, turns into a nauseating ‘designer vibe’ powdery calone.
It just never fails to happen, and it’s appears again on me here, strong as ever, off-putting as ever. Very sad.
The overall vibe is ood too, very similar to the odd overall theme of Creed’s SMW (Silver Mountain)
Here, it’s more an odd greeny-tea. I think I get some of the blackcurrants but it’s far too interrupted by the other unwanted accords.
The drydowns, which I don not count in a test by the way, is excellent. But that’s to be expected given the Quality and ingredients in Niche EDP’s, that’s why you make the big investment.
Here it’s a strong but comforting musk with shared themes of blackcurrant, the tea and some amberey light woods.
But I’m always concerned with the Top and mid and it really is even a step down from SMW for me, which I disliked anyway,,
Theres just too much of the mandarin and neroli/violets at the start alongside a pretty unsettling green tea note, giving an image of greens and blues.
I didn’t pick up any Lemon or sandalwood, notes that I want to star big in fragrances.
All in all, I’m sure many will find the non-tea side of it appealing (very designer) but for me it resembles one of the D&G’s + tea a little too closey, however good the ingredients are.
Scent: 5/10.
Quality: 9/10.
VENOM3000 – :
A perfume that smells like perfume. I honestly didn’t get any green tea at all; and I’m not completely clueless when it comes to green teas.
Not seeing how this is unisex; I found it really feminine.
Projects well.
ProHomMaster – :
Beautiful composition! Soft and refreshing. Light and elegant like all Creeds. Can’t say linear – opens nicely on every stage. Staying power good too.
I’m not exiting but after all I’m not expecting for something revolutionary and trendy from Creed. Creed for me is well balanced made of high quality materials perfumes. Not sexy, yummy, provocative etc. Just every day wearable high-end perfume. Asian Green Tea is definitely one of them.
Whole new line is good though.

I bought this at Saks NYC. It is AMAZING. I always liked the Bulgari Green tea – The Vert fragrance, but this Creed scent blows it out of the park. WOW!
How did it interact with my skin: At first, I noticed the neroli, orange and bergamot.
The green tea and amber tones it down to a light, soft, somewhat clean scent, but it calls one in to find out more…..what is that? It smells so different and complex. You can’t really determine what it is, there is no equal to it. Creed really did it. This one is something I would have thought Frederick Malle would have created, but it is Creed. I am happy, impressed. As it dried down, the amber, musk and green tea were the most dominate.
I also went to the Creed boutique and they also liked this one on me the best as a day into night scent. It is truly wonderful and for the hot, sticky summers in NYC, one could not ask for a more appropriate fragrance. It shields you from the elements of the City, and calls one over to find out what it is that you are wearing.
I am so excited over this purchase.

Expertly blended and beautifully composed, Asian Green Tea from Creed’s Acqua Originale collection is yet another stunning fragrance to add to the house’s library. A softly enveloping fruit and tea based fragrance which balances a subtle nuance of floral undertones to create an Oriental atmosphere. Beginning with a rather mellow citrus amalgam (bergamot, mandarin, and lemon petitgrain), one which is more sweet than citric. Mandarin is truly the star here, with its lusciousness immediately perceptible. A green tea note later pierces through the citrus, along with a heavy dose of florals. Powdery violet and heliotrope notes help to further blur the edges of the tart citrus, while cassie blossom’s aldehydes create a gauzy/gossamer like tonality overall. A restrained use of rose is notable. It offers a unique red berry note, as if part of the blended flavored tea. The base of typical Creed ambergris (musk), along with barely perceptible amber and sandalwood concludes the fragrance. Capturing the exotic heart of ancient Malaysian cultures, Asian Green Tea is at once sensuous and shadowy; a nod to the mysticism of the Far East. (152)

I was able to test all the new line today at Neiman Marcus; this one is head and shoulders the winner of the group. It has a sweet tea vibe and it’s not very floral just hints in there, I think I would say there is a green apple note that really stands out and makes this one. I sprayed it on my skin after trying them all on paper and when I went to the next store I received a compliment so it def. projects nicely. It is very linear overall but worth picking up if you don’t mind paying the $300 price tag until other places get it at a discount. I would have purchased a bottle myself if it wasn’t for the unhelpful, pretentious saleswoman who acted like it was a bother to assist me. Overall I am giving this one a 5/5 and will purchase once Nordstrom gets their stock.
