JULY SCENT SELECTION: “GREEN TEA”
*SCENT NOTES* green tea absolute, bitter orange, library accord, black oud.
This month, the Secret History Fragrance Club’s selection is inspired by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu’s sinister tale Green Tea.This haunting fragrance captures the descent from ordinary habit into spiritual obsession. It opens with the sharp clarity of green tea leaves, steeped just long enough to reveal their edge, cut through with the bright, almost caustic bite of bitter orange.
But what begins as refreshing quickly turns. The scent of dusty pages and old parchment emerges from the library stacks—a quiet echo of the rational mind fraying at the edges. And beneath it all, black oud stirs: ancient, animalic, and suffocating, like the breath of something watching from the darkened corner of the room.
This is a perfume for those who understand that evil doesn’t always enter with fire and smoke. Sometimes, it steeps for awhile.
In your SECRET HISTORY CLUB BOX, you'll get a half ounce bottle of fragrance , plus a bookmark storycard and collectible acrylic book cover pin.
