The character

What White Tea actually smells like

White Tea comes from the same plant as green tea, Camellia sinensis, but is distilled from the youngest leaf buds picked before full leaf development — the gentlest harvest stage, which is exactly why the oil reads as the softest, most understated tea note in the collection.

That near-blank, clean-linen quality is ideal for bedrooms, where a scent should support rest rather than compete for attention.

A note on safety

For external aromatherapy use only — never taken internally. Use with care during pregnancy, ideally in a diffuser rather than on skin, and avoid entirely during the first trimester unless a qualified practitioner advises otherwise. Suitable for diffuser and inhalation use for adults and children 12 and over; for younger children, consult a healthcare professional first. Use with caution around pets, and never apply topically to an animal. Store below 30°C, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children and pets.
