 L’Occitane en Provence){kind=link}
jentos – :
wanginya enak bgt
campuran citrus dan green tea saat awal disemprot. Kedua dua nya sama2 tercium kuat pd awalnya. Namun setelahnya, wangi yg trcium green tea yg dominan.
FAIMIPLAITA – :
I’ll be honest: the version they relaunched within the “Les Classiques de L’Occitane” line is not exactly like the original Green Tea listed here. It does resemble it though. I bought it simply because I missed the old one so much and it does somewhat satisfy that nostalgia. It’s not as bitter-crisp like the one one, but the green tea they originally used feels the same to me. I’d say this is one for the nostalgic fans of the original that are in need of comfort such as myself 🙂
rwe032speagoessenda – :
Nice if you could get it to stick around. Fleeting……
Citrus, soft with the green tea element. Lemony, however not much cedar or woods. Leans feminine in my estimation.
Overall lovely, reminiscient of Bvlgari Eau Parfumee au The Vert!!

Guys, I’m happy to report that L’Occitane has re-launched Green Tea within its “Les Classiques de L’Occitane” line. I was it online on the Italian website. Haven’t tested it yet, but will report back as soon as I do. Finally, somebody at L’Occitane did their job!
Elaplesoofe – :
Where are you L’Occitane Green Tea? Oh, how I miss you…Why don’t the people working at L’Occitane understand who their customers are? Why do they take away the great scents and produce sugary ones just like everyone else? We liked the Provence herboristerie vibe it had, that made it special…
rudchuk – :
I’ve known this scent for a long time, having purchased it (solid form) in 1999, and then buying the EDT in 2012. I always loved it, so maybe I’m just biased, but of all the scents I’ve smelled that identify themselves as “green tea”, I think this one nails it. This actually smells like green tea to me (perhaps an idealized version, like green tea ice cream, but still…). Other “green tea” scents smell bright or fresh, but not usually like tea.
I also own L’Occitane The Vert et Bigarade, by accident, and they smell almost identical to me. I sprayed each one on my wrists tonight. Maybe TV&B has a mild rubber-like smell after an hour? Honestly I wouldn’t notice if I wasn’t sitting here obsessively sniffing my wrists like a psycho. Longevity for both is about the same – around three hours, I’d say. Sadly, I think they both might be discontinued now.
Vankata17 – :
Citrusy green tea with soft jasmine, and a deep woodsy base. It’s fresh and delicious.. It feels crisp & cool, making it the perfect scent for summer. A clean, inoffensive scent, and has almost a medicinal or sterile quality. In a good way.
Simmer – :
Fresh and soft. Green tea and jasmine in a pleasant airy combination.
I have the solid, which I bought after a long period of skin issues which prevented me from wearing perfumes. (I gladly am better now and can wear them again!)
The solid version is a very pretty summer scent where the green tea and jasmine combine to create an airy and green soft floral. It goes beautiful in warm skin.
Happy and cozy in a soft fresh way. I am a fan!
Almenora1978 – :
For years this was my signature scent, and I would crave it at the first cold snap in November, probably because that’s when I first discovered it and I loved to catch wisps of its spicy coolness on the cold air. At first it seems merely plain, fresh, crisply inoffensive, but the thyme and nutmeg yield a spicy warmth and a depth that other green tea fragrances lack. I bought bottle after affordable bottle and was devastated when it was replaced with the inferior (but much more expensive) The Vert & Bigarade, the drydown of which manages to be both bitter and sickly. I hoarded several bottles but have found some to have a shorter shelf life than some other perfumes. But today, true to form as it’s Nov. 2, I dug one out and was relieved to find it still fresh, cool, dry and spicy. I don’t think L’Occitane has made anything as good since.
kzamp – :
A lovely scent for the summer months especially – I own the solid perfume version of this, and it does wonderful things on the skin on a hot summer’s day. Fresh, with beautiful jasmine, more noticeable on warm skin.
txir – :
I was looking for a longer lasting version of thé vert Yves Rocher. And this is it but very weak though. I have tried the Roger and Gallet which is a bit sour and doesn’t last more than one hour. I loooooooove this parfume, very very fresh and even if people pretend it smells like their newer version with bigarade…Wrong!! This is plain and simple green tea.
abenseweapoks – :
At first it smells like a very fresh but simple scent. It fades into a beautiful spa-like green tea smell. I love it.
betawmin – :
This is a very well made and good quality edt.The notes work in harmony with each other.The scent itself and the staying power shows how much the perfume is made of quality ingredient.
People around me commented on how good and refreshing it smells when I wore it.It is like happy summer day drinking orange juice, having a picnic at the park with friends and family.
Laurynas94 – :
is good is very good almost as good as bvlgari the vert, is a bit more spicy than the vert but still as fresh.
bvlgari to me is like those frozen sweets with matcha and chewy dough at the japanese store, this is more like tea
ler750 – :
This is just beautiful and green, fresh, delicate for hotter days. Sun shining, grass being mown. That is what this scent is all about – the green sap of the plants in summer, the fragrance coming off the hot ground, the sun gleaming off all of nature, the bees humming around fragrant flowers. A slight breeze which is full of fresh grassy aroma. And this has jasmine to sweeten the mixture. Big thumbs up, nice surprise having tried other green tea scents that have not quite hit the mark. This one has. Thanks L’Occitane!
p.s. The drydown is divine, that jasmine comes out nicely.
Alexsei000 – :
Another great, earthy, fresh, discontinued perfume from loccitane.
I fall for this perfume a long time ago, I finally bought it before it went discontinued..(and I get it for half price)
There are a lot of green tea perfume in the market such as bvlgari, Elizabeth arden,etc.
But I think to paid half price from those highend brand is worth the money and experience..
Its classic, itd old school and its limited edt(now)
Its a love struck! For spring is perfect, for summer is lovely, for fall season is excelent also..
wme191InsuffBooni – :
The Vert is just wonderful. It’s bittersweet, mellowly fresh and yet at the same time humble. I can smell a lot of greens and citruses here, and overall it’s a very good pick for a hot summer day, though it kinda works during cooler periods too.
What I adore from The Vert the most is the opening. It’s just really cool and green, even though it’s not exactly tea. More like very sweet iced tea. It dries down to a very likeable scent, even though after a few hours it can turn into this dizzying sweetish scent which I don’t really like. Longevity and sillage are good, but strangely, the unlikeable sweetish residual scent seems to have more sillage than the opening and middle notes.
Overall a very likeable perfume, but not for night wear methinks. It’s replaced by The Vert and Bigarade, which is not a bad scent to me, but I still prefer this original The Vert.
Rating: 7.5/10
Batmentee – :
This is DISCONTINUED in the USA according to the website and the ladies on the store. I did pick up 3 bottles and it is the same as the version in France and it is the same formula as the one from many years ago.
It is the perfect Green Tea scent for purists. It is not weighed down by roses, lemons, or sugar. It is just fresh green tea only slightly better. It is the fragrance that really started the Green Tea craze.
It is perfect year round, it’s just perfect.
DavidVH – :
Discontinued? I found it on the French Occitane site. Is it the same juice as the one that existed before? Has anyone tried? L’Occitane française doesn’t ship abroad though…
FCrtftYGUYUG – :
Thank you, fellow members! There is something to be said for throwing in samples when swapping! It really CAN be a way to introduce people to new scents.
Both this and Bvlgari’s Thé Rouge were given to me as samples in swaps with two different members. They weren’t even on my “want” or “test” lists; still, here I am seeking out full bottles of these wonderful tea scents!
This, to me, is predominantly tea and bitter orange. Maybe a tad “cologne-y” at first, but becomes softer in a very short time. I don’t necessarily smell jasmine, but there is a clean, light floral in the background. Like Bvlgari’s Thé Rouge, this scent dries down to a milky, nutty musk.
L’Occitane en Provence has, unfortunately, discontinued this scent. *sigh* HOWEVER! I managed to buy one last bottle — which they had beneath the counter. Yay!
Edit: If you love this scent, I would highly suggest that you visit/phone your nearest L’Occitane boutique, and ask if they have any leftover stock tucked away. After I’d written the above review, I was able to purchase a couple of extra bottles, by simply calling a shop even closer to home.
печатник – :
Fresh, Clean and light.. good for everyday use..
but not one of my Fave….
salokin93 – :
sadly I don’t get the tea note or the mate in this at all, when first sprayed there’s that herbal smell that comes from the dried yerba before you pour boiling water to make the mate infusion, but then it’s overpowered by the citrics, I thought of this as a more green scent but it srikes me as a very screechy citrus fragrance, I think my opinion is biased because I smelled The vert au jasmin first (two abismally different fragrances by the way), this is definitely more unisex, very refreshing and comfortable.
Tatsy24160 – :
I have loved this fragrance ever since I first tried it out in store. It was love at first sight. It’s a very fresh scent, not too overpowering. I think its more stable than Elizabeth Arden’s Green Tea which changes a lot depending on heat, humidity, and other variables.
equattebitE – :
THIS IS GETTING DISCONTINUED! The Vert au Bigarade will be replacing it! Stock up if you love it!!
spyshik – :
I didn’t like the opening. It was strong in orange at first. Citrus, sweet, this is not what I expected for a green tea scent. The drydown is much better. The tea and the jasmin is calming and comforting. Unfortunately citrus notes still linger somewhere around. I wish it could be bitterer like White Tea by l’Occitane. It’s still a lovely fragrance, green and fresh, inoffensive and suitable for many occasions, unisex as well. But it just doesn’t fit the image of green tea for me. It’s some sort of fruit tea IMHO.
I also have White Tea by l’Occitane and I prefer the scent of White Tea. But Green Tea lasts longer and its sillage is better.
egorzaz – :
Bought it for my mother. Although She didn’t like it, I thought it smells lovely. It has a very fresh opening, then I smell citrus and jasmine. It has a bit of spicy notes to it which I think is why my mother disliked this perfume. I wouldn’t wear it myself so we just use it as room spray. When people come to our house they would compliment how nice our home smell haha
dato – :
+++ its my wife favorite so far. girls notice this. even my female boss gave compliment me when i wear this.. wink wink
+ good opening smell. green tea is my kind of thing.
– sometime i feel the vert has feminim side (jasmine) i feel not so comfortable at..
– and after 3 hours or so it will lack of its freshness and turn to be boring.. need reapply.. refreshen for every 4 hour..
4 (+) out of 6,
so its a 6.7/10 then
sergo71 – :
When I wear this relaxing scent where the King is the aroma of tea accompanied by far from a Jasmine that winks I can not quarrel.I call the scent of peace in the world.
Anna D – :
three words… fresh clean and easy to wear….love this so much…
Mexiq619Diobtetty – :
Very fresh and, on my skin, very citrusy! When i spray this on my skin the citrus notes absolutely dominate the first impression, but right after it hits you the beautiful note of green tea fills in the room, leaving only little space for jasmin to accommodate itself. Very nice frag IMHO, but alas i don’t have a bottle for myself. 🙁
vkremnev70 – :
What more can I say?
Before I’d go for L’occitane Cherry Blossom. But since beginning of this year I spray this on me every day I go to work. I have the solid perfumes in almost every single bag that I have. I guess I must have been addicted to this fragrance.
It’s super clean and fresh. Green tea, citrus, and a bit of jasmine is all over the place. Very similar to EA’s Green Tea but this one has much better sillage and last longer on me. L’occitane The Vert lasts around 8 hours on my skin and a little longer when sprayed on clothes. Even on the next day, you can still smell it on the shirt you wore a day before. Sillage is moderate. It’s not everywhere, but my colleagues can easily notice me they just always know if I just passed through.
I wear EA’s Green Tea when I’m home or if I have to go out a bit for groceries on weekends. But for more serious event, L’occitane The Vert sure be the better choice.
Oh, my clients love it too. Not overpowering during meetings, even in small room, and it wakes them up!
hcv180intitytek – :
EDIT: After several uses, it’s time I write a better review.
Just bought this today after reading all the reviews here lol.
I own Elizabeth Arden’s Green Tea EDP spray as well. This baby here cost me S$85 for 100ml as opposed to EA’s S$19.90/100ml.
It does smell like Elizabeth Arden’s GT initially (like, the first 5 minutes) but proceeds to mellow down. Compared to EA, Eau Vert is far more mellow, as EA’s GT smells very green and sharp.
On the sample paper at the store, it smells like everything at once but on my skin it is predominantly tea with hints of citrus and a dash of jasmine. For some reason, the citrus reminds me of a touch of L’occitane’s Verbana. Yet, if I were to smell carefully, I can distinctively smell the green tea, mate, jasmine, citrus and a herbal dry down. Very well blended, as someone here has said. It’s nice how I can smell all the notes and yet at the same time they blend wonderfully together. Sometimes green tea peeks out alongside mate, but soon sinks into the background as the sweet scent of jasmine appears. And the cycle repeats.
Longevity is impressive. I sprayed a couple of sprays on a shirt I wore and I could still smell it days later. On skin it lasts around 3-4 hours for me but the scent wears away if you wash these parts. Sillage is moderate/soft, depending on how many sprays you use 🙂 It is particularly great under the hot sun as the humidity and perfume mix together to provide a mental relief from the searing heat.
I like to wear this a lot these days when I’m at work, or when meeting up with male friends whom I have no romantic interest in *winks*
Oh, and that Elizabeth Arden bottle of Green Tea? Well, it’s kinda lonesome these days since I don’t reach for it anymore.
gonza22 – :
The Vert is possibly my favourite green tea scent from those that I’ve smelt so far. It definitely tops Green Tea by Elizabeth Arden and Bvlgari Eau Parfumee au The Vert. It smells natural, herbaceous, citrusy and fresh.
The trouble with most green tea fragrances on the market today, is the tendency to make the scent unnaturally sweet. Thankfully L’Occitane has refrained from altering the composition, leaving the green tea note in its most natural form.
The Vert smells like actual tea leaves, rather than a watered down cup of tea. An added touch of bitter orange in the top notes, and jasmine in the heart, provide a sparkling and fresh quality.
This fragrance is definitely unisex. Both men and women will enjoy sharing this one during the Summer months. The cedar, thyme and nutmeg drydown, strikes me as being more musky and green than anything else. It was a pleasant end to such a fresh and revitalising scent.
I know that L’Occitane prices can be a little off-putting for some, especially considering how simplistic some of their fragrances can be. However, I think The Vert is worth it, especially seeing that it lasts almost the entire day on the skin. I would definitely recommend this fragrance as being one of the better scents from the house of L’Occitane. It was well worth discovering.
biariaMecurge – :
The lemon and orange starts the Vert rolling and the jasmine keeps it from veering off into the gutter, but it still manages to wobble during it’s trajectory and I am never sure whether it will end up being what I want or not. This happens EVERY time I use it.
I also tried The Vert with Jasmine from the same line, which smelled truly magical on my friend, but when I tried it on my own skin, it just didn’t sit right. It’s a fresh green tea, but I wish it would keep the jasmine, eliminate the citrus,and add something to compromise the acidity like a honeyed hay note or maybe even a trace of patchouli or vetiver.
Part of the beauty of green tea itself, is its earthy, and naturally verdant quality, which is at once smooth, matte, and refreshing (think matcha), but the presence of the lemon in L’Occitane’s The Vert hinders that natural pleasant quality instead of accentuating it. It’s almost as if they couldn’t figure this one out, and said, “When in doubt, add more citrus!”
That said, I continue to revisit this one occasionally to see if maybe just this once, it will become what I want it to be.
Meyzu379bedyWelty – :
I splurged on this $ 50 cologne for my birthday last month and find it soothing and uplifting at once. It reminds me of a quality Spa, a place of clean lines, oriental decor, and uncluttered freshness. Personally, I do not find that any of the “green tea” scents smell very much like actual green tea (leaves or brewed–they are generally a bit more mossy and citrussy), but this scent is very nice and fresh, and I love that l’Occitane derives it from all natural ingredients. This means, it needs to be reapplied mid-day, but that is actually a pleasure (I have the purse atomizers Frangrancenet.com currently sells at a sale price–you fill them from the atomizer stem at the base–brilliant). I wear this to work when I want freshness and elegance and nothing in the least bit loud or offensive.
dxd227intitytek – :
This time of year I start to crave spring and that usually manifests itself by me craving, purchasing and wearing cool, fresh, sunny and yummy breezy perfumes, and turning my back more and more on the Oriental bombs and the smokey silage beasts. “The Vert L’Occitane en Provence” is just my cup of tea for the last days of January and it will be a favorite far into the spring and summer months!
Cool green freshness, citric zest, floral feminine beauty and herbal depth without that it is too much of one thing. It’s a very elegant and yummy scent with an herbal dry-down, reminiscent of standing in the middle of an herbal garden in the Provence looking for just the right herbs to go with your dinner that is cooking on your Aga. Whilst you can smell the freshly pressed orange & lemon juice still on your fingers. On the way to the herbal garden you stopped and picked a jasmine or two out of the big terra-cotta flowerpots. Lost in thought you inhale deeply…and you can feel your lungs fill with a clean spring-air that already holds a promise of a summer that will be reminiscent of holidays with family & friends and lots of laughter. (Darn! This potion makes me lyrical!! lol ; )
A beautiful mood-lifter that is suitable for all occasions and moods since it’s not the type of Green Tea scent that smells like you’re wearing your morning tea. It’s too well blended for that. Tea notes swirling around juicy citric vibes that have a strong jasmines note and a very well adjusted mate vibe. It’s herbal without being ‘medicinal’, tea & orangey-like without being ‘food-like’ and has a wonderful balance of mate and jasmine.
It’s addictive, I am wearing it often: (at home, work, leisure-time and on casual dates) and I must get another bottle to have it on stand-by for when the first spring-like days arrive!
Silage is: Yummy and pretty aromatherapy for body & mind — Longevity is: depending on chemistry and amount of sprays. On me three sprays on skin and one on clothes make it last 5+ hours. Good luck and enjoy! : )
Teeviallutile – :
This is really a energizing scent.It is green tea but not too fresh,not to citrus/orange not to soapy.Very well blend.The ingredients are really quality stuff…..
It smells great on my skin and on the paper.
1day later I can still smell it on the paper.
gafita – :
Have it for years, Green Tea is fresh scent with clear notes of Mate and very uplifting, compared to The Vert au Jasmin a bit thin, almost imperceptible… The Vert au Jasmine is floral with strong bitter orange echo and somewhat mystical. There is no mistery in The Vert, feels quite clear tea notes,some citrusies but…it lacks strength.
My vote goes to The Vert au Jasmine, more genuine and really unique artwork.
HardRain – :
Very nice, gentle, fresh fragrance that really does smell like sweet, cool green tea with a touch of citrus. Great for every day wear. It probably wouldn’t be a scent for an evening out.
vik_kas – :
I am interested in this frag, but how is the longevity and projection.
Could someone please give me 1-10 on both longevity and projection.
1 being weak and 10 being strong. Would so appreciate it before i go buy it. Thank you:) I love fragranticans!!!!
jane198326 – :
i remember trying this scent and thinking that the citrus was too strong, but after 20 min it had changed to a warm and lovely smell that was really nice on my skin. i will recomend it, but you sould try it first!
mikebg – :
@bunma87 No its not limited. I boyght it yesterday.
IMO the absolutely gorgeous green tea fragrance. Very fresh and greenish.
Highly recommend.
j.pedash – :
Great! But I can’t find to buy, is it limited?
atom_3 – :
Wonderful, never go wrong fragrance. I keep this in my bag and if I forget to place on a fragrance when I leave the house I can use this, it is suitable for all occasions, never overpowering, never offensive.
8910907 – :
A must smell for green tea lovers! Light citrus, dark tea and on my skin a hint of jasmine in the dry down. Its very linear, but not a bad thing this time IMO. Comforting, direct and yummy.
Miroslava405 – :
When I run out of time and need to pick something quick, I always go for this EDT. It is definitely not the most exciting fragrance, but it does have beautifully subtle citrus notes that float into the air after a few minutes leaving my skin with a familiar and comforting powdery tea scent. It’s my safe fragrance and it just works really well on my skin.
Mackenzie_fromAD – :
Not too sure about the whole green tea thing.
Worked for me when weather was very hot but I will not purchase again. Got a bit boring.
I like the simplicity and honesty of L’Occitane fragrances, but green tea is very linear.
However, their sale staff are lovely – all over the world. Never had a bad experience.
So will investigate others fragrances from the range.
dik1978 – :
Ok but there’re too many green tea scents just like it.
vikk – :
Wow, this is actually just tea. I really like the scent, but this is too much, just solid tea. Very crisp, just not pretty enough for me.
SLAVIKZHENYA – :
I am a sucker for green tea fragrances. Put one in front of my nose and I’m almost guaranteed to want to buy it.
This tea is no exception. I’d say that this particular blend smells more like tea than many others (less abstract than Bvlgari, less fruity than Elizabeth Arden). Definitely a better value than either one – so I am likely to track this one down as my next green tea scent!
wyryp – :
Slightly spicy, but I get mostly citrus. It’s like lemon green tea more than a straight green tea. Light, pleasant, not long-lasting. Good for summer/warm weather when you don’t want something overpowering.
nhentym – :
To me, it has a slight floral streak to it that I just didn’t want in my green tea, it’s OK with one or two spritzes though…
xaidyk_87 – :
very well-balanced and delicate fragrance with strong vital power.
I find here some floral notes behind the tea-citrus duet.
unfortunately I can’t realise what flower is it. may be it’s lily-of-the-valley?.. or something like this.
tanglefy – :
The immediate impression in the opening is zest-the little peels of citrus fruits that you make to use in cooking- by scraping the skins, to get only the tart, zingy, most flavorful oils from the skin of the fruit. The citrus notes seem to be lemon and bergamot as the strongest scents, (I am sensing mainly lemon) and lime in second place, and then some orange added. The citrus stays the whole time during wear, and dominates the green tea note. The citrus is much more potent than the green tea note, but the two notes alternate during wear. The citrus arises, then green tea comes out; the two go back and forth, playing, but the citrus is always striking and heavy. The green tea note is a very clear, earthy, almost watery note-distinctive-almost as if you were drinking a cup of tea at the moment. Great purity and levity here, excellent longevity, a fantastically energizing scent, or a lovely every day soothing scent. Exactly my cup of tea to enjoy on a cool, sunny afternoon.
mishakch – :
this is my favorite perfume. so clean. so green. reminds me jungle.this is the perfect vert smell. for holiday, summer, winter. perfect for whole days.
pure green tea.
sutern – :
I liked it better than a Vert with a jasmine. Green and not as sweet.
I think I saw it in a home fragrance concentration as well, perhaps I would go for this option
AlexandrsH2 – :
Very delicious! Not sweet, but very fresh and green…nice holiday scent!
