White Tea / Thé Blanc
Ava Luxe

My husband is the avid tea drinker in the family (I'm the coffee addict, I'm afraid, though I love tea - white/green/black/herbal - they all make me happy)....

I find The Blanc to be a lovely (unsweetened and unspiced) white tea. It's a subtle fragrance, for sure, but delicious. I bought this for the hubby, but keep stealing it for myself. Not for when you're looking to make a statement, but lovely for when you want just a little hint of something that sharpens your senses and makes you smile for reasons you're not quite sure of.

At work, I drink green tea in the mornings and white tea (usually a cinnamon flavoured variety) in the afternoons.This does [i]not[/i] smell like tea to me.I've tried L'Artisan Tea for Two and it was exactly like drinking a cup of Earl Grey. Not so this. White Tea, to me, smells like soap. From that perspective, it fulfils the clean/fresh category admirably. It just doesn't fulfill the tea category very well.I was hoping that the soapiness would wear off after initial application and let the other notes shine through, but it merely becomes a softer soap. In its favour, it is long lasting, though it stays close to the skin. The scent, however, just does not work for me.
