Basically, I would say that I am not averse to tea fragrances. A very popular canidate is "Wūlóng Chá (Extrait de Parfum) | Nishane". This one was a big disappointment for me. My first association was with a huge, sugary iced tea tetra pack.
When I sprayed on "Molecule 01 + Black Tea | Escentric Molecules" for the first time, this thought came back to me. However, more like a sugary fancy in the glass bottle iced tea. Therefore - at the edge. Just about wearable for me. Probably better in summer than today at 10°C. I would also agree that I detect lemon.
The tea fades after a short time. What remains is this typical Mol 01 + Aura, as I already know it from "Molecule 01 + Iris | Escentric Molecules" and like it very much. Perhaps a little less creamy and fresh, but woody.
I'll try the fragrance again in warmer temperatures. Maybe it will click then. It also took a while for me and "Molecule 01 + Iris | Escentric Molecules".

As some comments already show, this fragrance is not (or no longer) unique. It is reminiscent of fragrances such as "You (Eau de Parfum) | Glossier" Per Sē from 27 87 (somehow can't be linked) "12 | Twelve | Valjues" "Puro | M8 Moods" or "Fleur de Peau (Eau de Parfum) | Diptyque"
Of these fragrances, however, this one is the oldest if you look at the years of release.
The fragrances mentioned are sometimes more and sometimes less sweet or floral than "adr_ett | Nomenclature". Some of them have a more pungent musky note.
If you collect fragrances like this, i.e. if you attach importance to owning a fragrance with slight variations several times, "adr_ett | Nomenclature" is an easy grab and blind buy.
Personally, I find "adr_ett | Nomenclature" to be the most rounded of all those mentioned and therefore also the most beautiful of its kind.
Synthetic at first, reminiscent of steam from ironing freshly laundered linen clothes.
Then powdery iris? - reminiscent of school chalk.
The pepper note is only subtly present.
The base is clearly tonka and very light vanilla - not the sweet, gourmand vanilla... rather woody unsweet vanilla.
Generally not at all sweet for me, at most sweet.

I have tested so many iris fragrances in the past few weeks... uiuiui. My all-time favorite "Infusion d'Iris (Eau de Parfum) (2015) | Prada" is currently on shaky ground. I almost bought "Lumière d'Iris | Veronique Gabai" too, although this is not a pure iris fragrance. It's more of a fresh, creamy fragrance with iris.
I haven't been able to do much with the other Escentric Molecules fragrances so far. But because of the very good reviews, I became aware of this one. I immediately bought a bottle, sprayed it on ... i wasn't particularly impressed at first (I think I had tested "Bois Impérial | Essential Parfums" before. I should have left it alone).
A few weeks later, I tried it again... i actually wanted to layer something.
Whoop whoop! There was no layering.
I don't think this fragrance has much radiance - but everyone tells me how good I smell when I wear "Molecule 01 + Iris | Escentric Molecules". When I spray the fragrance on my skin, I only notice "Molecule 01 + Iris | Escentric Molecules" very quietly. The fragrance does not impose itself. M01+ Iris is delicate - but so good. Fresh, slightly creamy-powdery, woody iris.
I wear "Molecule 01 + Iris | Escentric Molecules" on its own.
I still tried layering with "4.1 Le Musc & La Peau | Pierre Guillaume" once. However, it is not necessary. This Escentric Molecules is quite clear on its own.
Your skin but better + Iris.

The scent reminds many people of gin and tonic. Unfortunately not me. Why unfortunately? I think a gin and tonic can have a tangy scent despite the spices etc. and I like that. I mainly perceive the woody notes in Yes please! That's not a bad thing, because not every fragrance for the lighter and warmer seasons has to be citrusy and sparkling. I was just hoping for something a little less woody. I clearly perceive the Amyris scent. That's probably why the fragrance reminds me of Amyris Homme by Maison Francis Kurkdjian (EdT).
For me, Capri by 19-69 is the more beautiful summer fragrance. I have sprayed both at the same time on different arms and find that the hold and presence are the same. Capri's longevity comes off worse in the community, but Capri is also much more widespread.

I have now been able to test the fragrance several times over the past few days... And my feelings vary. After I sprayed Bois Impérial on for the first time, I just thought wow. I immediately checked the price range and almost bought it straight away. Almost. And that was a good thing. First of all, I still like the fragrance. But do I have to own Bois Impérial? As you can see from my collection, I tend to be a minimalist - a capsule fragrance wardrobe, so to speak.
Bois Impérial is an incredibly fresh fragrance. It is very present. The fragrance lasts a long time. Sure, the grapefruit is briefly in the foreground at the beginning. But the fragrance is generally linear. And that's where my problem starts. This synthetic, cold freshness that doesn't change or fade gets on my nerves at some point. It's probably just my problem because I tend to prefer shallower fragrances. For all those who are looking for a freshness kick, but value durability and sillage - go for it! P/L top!
For me, a fragrance that I like to smell on people around me, but somehow doesn't last on me...
Dear female-reading individuals - don't worry about the target group here! I find the fragrance totally unisex.
I also don't see Bois Impérial as a Ganymede substitute or dupe.
