Not my cup of tea!

London Fog opens with a wonderful earl-grey note with lots of bergamot and a delicate smoky aroma in the background. My heart leaps for joy, and if you read the fragrance pyramid, you can imagine that it doesn't stop there.
My bonfire goes out far too quickly and takes off in the direction of honey milk, the teenage note quickly comes to a standstill. Lavender is used too sparingly here; instead, the lactonic concoction becomes very sweet. At this point at the latest, I feel sick to my stomach.
In combination with the base notes, the whole thing becomes a dense honey-sandalwood milk of overwhelming intensity.

My conclusion: This is not a tea fragrance in the conventional sense. The interplay of top and base notes is too much of a good thing for me. Nevertheless, London Fog will find its fans.

I wouldn't be so enthusiastic about that either.

@Floyd I had actually already guessed it.

With this bold tea scent in the pyramid, you can expect plenty of tea aromas in the composition! Too bad you were disappointed!

I just don't like sandalwood.

@Ponticus I had already feared it, but the name appealed to me ;-)
