Of blackbirds and danced through nights
I first smelled this scent a few years ago on a good friend during a common welcoming hug before we settled in for champagne and wine and then a night out at a favorite, familiar club. Even before I realized I was about to notice a scent, the feeling of well-being, security and pure happiness shot into my stomach in a flash. I immediately told her that she smelled very good and asked what it was. She replied "green tea from Yves Rocher." Oddly enough, I was puzzled by this answer. Not because I didn't trust YR with good scents, but because I didn't remotely associate green tea with this scent. What I smelled were lilies of the valley, though not soapy, but fresh and soft.

Since I spoke so enthusiastically about your scent, she sprayed me with two whiffs of it. Contrary to what I expected, I perceived something citrusy and licorice-like in the process. After a few minutes, the green tea took over, which I liked a lot, but didn't come close to the scent of the lily of the valley. I had to be patient for about half an hour until the white flowers I was hoping for, which don't appear in the composition at all, showed up for me and stayed. Although the sillage and durability were rather in the midfield and became a pleasant skin scent for me, the feeling that the fragrance triggered in me affected me all night.

The following week, of course, I had to get the bottle for myself - also to please everyone who enters my personal zone. Although he is not a classic going out fragrance, he became my faithful companion for beautiful warm summer nights with friends and music. It was still there even when I was a little tipsy but happy and pleasantly exhausted in the morning walking home, accompanied by the beautiful song of blackbirds, sniffing the places where I had applied it. When I spray myself with it today, I can't help but think of just that: of that certain feeling of freedom and aliveness. Of the cool mornings after nights of dancing. If the fragrance were a song, for me it would be "Blackbird" by The Beatles.

Flowers and lemon
This indeed is a very simplistic but pleasant green tea scent with added citrus notes for a stimulating freshness. Opposed to some reviews likening this to Elizabeth Arden Green Tea, I find Thé Vert to be very different, starting from the obvious absence of mint which gives its distinctive cooling effect and the opening sharpness in Arden's version. Furthermore, the lack of any spices and herbs makes this a calmer, less sportive green tea alternative, leaning more on the feminine side.

With crisp lemony notes and just the tiniest powdery hint for cleanness, it translates as a deliciously flavoured, ice-cooled green tea, a body mist that would last for a couple of hours and a little longer on clothes.
Speaking of my own experience, the lemony-floral facet could trigger headaches depending on the condition.

On a side note, the shower gel smells even more like mild, sweetened green tea - a shame it only lasts until you step out of the shower.
Overall, a nice citrusy-flowery albeit less cooling alternative to minty green teas.

A refreshing sip of green tea with lemon
It’s not the first tea scent inside the Yves Rocher collection. The fans of this brand would remember Fraîcheur Végétale Thé Vert launched in 2003. Both build around a recognizable green tea accord introduced by Jean-Claude Ellena in Eau Parfumée Au Thé Vert for Bvlgari in 1992.

According to my personal classification the whole Un Matin au Jardin line belongs to a category of the “morning colognes”, the light fresh waters with low staying power. So they can be sprayed directly after waking up to give my morning a nice boost and disappear by the time I go to the shower.

Thé Vert acts like a refreshing sip of green tea with lemon served outside on the background of the spring garden. Fresh air, energizing smell of citrus and a lot of bright shades of green. Sometimes I even smell a whiff of fresh white blossoms brought by a gust of wind (a small reminder from Cerisier en Fleurs). A faint transparent woody background completes the picture. This cup of tea works like a good tonic filling me with joy and energy for the day. The staying power is extremely low. I don’t know whether I can finish drinking my tea before Thé Vert is almost gone. I can barely smell it in an hour. But I am still happy to have it as a morning cologne.

Compared w/ BodyShop & E.Arden version, this leans more on the gentle side, as if there are some flowers blooming outside your open window
