Black Tea Accord opens with bitter black tea leaf facets and a fleeting wine-like nuance that gives brightness and lift. As it settles, the aroma becomes smoother and slightly sweeter, revealing a dry herbal tea character with layered complexity. It feels textured and nuanced, balancing tannic dryness with warmth and depth.

Black Tea Accord functions primarily as a heart-to-base modifier, adding structure and sophistication.

Recommended concentration: 1-30%

Particularly effective in:
Tea accords, aromatic woods, dry florals, contemporary niche-style compositions

Blends well with:
Citrus notes for lift
Rose, jasmine, and violet for floral tea effects
Woods and musks for structure
Spices and light resins for warmth

Suitable for non-perfumery applications such as candles and home fragrance where a refined tea character is desired.

Used in moderation, it provides depth and dimension without overpowering.
