A nice tea scent with bergamot and cedar

Velvet Infusion has a not-so-great scent progression, but I still notice small changes. I like the composition and can definitely recommend the fragrance for testing.

I perceive Velvet Infusion as a wonderful slightly green tea scent with a quite intense bergamot and a distinctly present cedarwood note.

The fragrance opens for me with bergamot, a bit of pepper, and already the black tea.
After about 30 minutes, I can also perceive the cedarwood note. It is still in the background, but it gradually steps forward piece by piece.

I find it interesting that the fragrance initially strikes me as quite herbaceous and greenish, and over time gains more "freshness."
After about 1-2 hours, the "herbaceous" quality diminishes more and more, and it simply feels fresher. The tea note also comes out better now.
The cedarwood note is present as a companion.

For me, it is a great fragrance and particularly suitable for summer. Of course, it's not the current season, but even now it can be worn well.
In summer, it will probably perform at its best.

This fragrance deserves more than just a comment

Actually, I had zero expectations for this fragrance. It’s probably because D&G leaves me completely cold when it comes to fashion image, and I hadn’t tried a single scent from the Velvet line before. So I had no idea what the more exclusive fragrances from D&G could do (or not do).

I like tea. I’ve also gone through many crowd-pleasers and a few niche tea fragrances. In the end, surprisingly, I liked Imagination the best. However, I never bought it because, while it comes across as unisex, it somehow works better on my husband. And the mission was clear: a tea scent for me, not for him. ;)

Velvet Infusion is definitely unisex - if that’s still a thing. Still, I feel somehow better dressed with it. The scent is pleasantly subtle, not too loud.

The opening is nicely citrusy, without being sharp in the nose. The tea note comes across as elegant and refined, not sweet or like iced tea. The base is slightly woody, a bit green and spicy.

I think this could be something... Especially in spring or summer, Velvet Infusion fits best.

One more note on the similarity to Wūlóng Chá Extrait de Parfum:

I got another sample of Wūlóng Chá Extrait de Parfum and tested it directly against Velvet Infusion.
It’s true that the tea note here is very similar. However, the citrus opening in Wūlóng Chá Extrait de Parfum is more bitter (sharper) and also more intense.
Velvet Infusion comes across as finer and more reserved here. The fruits are clearly perceptible in Nishane's tea scent; I always associate iced tea with fruitier tea fragrances. The fruitiness is hardly present in Velvet Infusion.
Velvet Infusion is much less spicy. In the drydown, I mainly perceive woodiness and the tea notes. Later, there’s also a slightly creamy-powdery aspect. This is not the case on my skin with Wūlóng Chá Extrait de Parfum. It is more bitter and spicier, and at times I even get very slight aquatic vibes. It’s also greener.
In terms of longevity, Wūlóng Chá Extrait de Parfum performs better... but that’s not surprising since it’s an extrait and not just an EDP.
I’m team Velvet Infusion, although the price once again makes my ears perk up. Both fragrances are definitely unisex, but Velvet Infusion leans more feminine for me (creamy, powdery, reserved), while Wūlóng Chá Extrait de Parfum has more masculine tendencies due to its bitter spice. But hey! Just my association. Everyone should wear what they like - I also wear Imagination and Amyris Homme Extrait de Parfum and identify as a woman.
