Vanilla, milk and anise open it. Toffee, liquorice and sugar fill the middle. Tonka bean, more vanilla and musk close it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is no matcha in it. Not a trace of green tea anywhere in the composition, which is worth knowing before you buy it for that reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe short version\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it is:\u003c\/strong\u003e A 100ml eau de parfum, worn by men and women.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmells like\u003c\/strong\u003e: Warm milk, vanilla and toffee, with a liquorice edge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharacter\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sweet, creamy and comforting.

That tells you how much of the fragrance rests on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree of the nine notes are plainly sugar: toffee, sugar and vanilla. Two more are sweet in their own way. Only anise and liquorice pull in the other direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMilk as a note is worth explaining. It smells creamy and faintly powdery rather than like fresh milk. That creaminess is what gives this the latte quality the name promises.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Atralia Matcha Latte smells like\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMilk is the first thing you notice, and it is a genuinely creamy, slightly powdery note rather than anything watery. Vanilla sits right beside it from the opening, soft and sweet. Anise arrives underneath with a faint liquorice coolness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the first few minutes it smells like a warm milky drink. That part of the name is accurate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe middle thickens it considerably. Toffee brings a buttery caramelised sweetness and sugar makes it plainly sugary. Liquorice runs through the whole thing with a dark, slightly medicinal edge that stops it being bland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe finish is simple and warm. Tonka bean adds an almond-like sweetness with a dry hay note, a second vanilla deepens the cream, and musk softens the edges. The drydown stays close and lasts quietly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThere is no matcha in Atralia Matcha Latte\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe published note list has no green tea in it, and nothing green at all. What you get is milk, vanilla, toffee, sugar, liquorice, anise, tonka and musk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo the name describes a drink rather than a smell. A real matcha latte is milky and sweet with a green bitter edge from the tea. This one keeps the milk and the sugar and leaves the tea out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnise and liquorice are doing the job the tea would have done. Both are slightly bitter and slightly cooling, so they cut the sugar in roughly the same place matcha would. They taste nothing like it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJudge it as a milky vanilla gourmand and it is a good one. Judge it as a matcha fragrance and it will disappoint you, which is the only reason this section exists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMatcha Latte or Lattafa Matcha Swirl?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of these two actually contains matcha. If that is what you came for, the choice is already made.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLattafa Matcha Swirl lists matcha cake in its heart, with strawberry on top and white chocolate underneath. The green bitterness is real and it is what keeps the sugar in check. It is the one to buy if you want matcha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAtralia Matcha Latte has no matcha and no fruit. It is milkier, creamier and more straightforwardly sweet, with liquorice instead of green tea doing the cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePut simply: Matcha Swirl is a matcha dessert, Matcha Latte is a vanilla one with a matcha name. Both are good. Only one does what its name says.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho should buy Atralia Matcha Latte, and who should not\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuy it if you want a warm milky vanilla for cold weather. It is comforting in the way a hot drink is comforting, and the liquorice keeps it from tasting like plain sugar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also suits anyone who likes anise or liquorice notes. Those are uncommon in sweet fragrances and they give this one a character most vanillas do not have.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDo not buy it for the matcha. There is none, and Lattafa Matcha Swirl is the bottle you actually want.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSkip it too if you dislike very sweet fragrances. Three notes here are straight sugar and the liquorice only takes the edge off. This is sweet from start to finish.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ATRALIA","offers":[{"title":"2 ML","offer_id":57504702398842,"sku":null,"price":3.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 ML","offer_id":57504702431610,"sku":null,"price":5.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ML","offer_id":57504702464378,"sku":"850051296408","price":32.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0570\/0891\/4541\/files\/atralia-matcha-latte.jpg?v=1793561536","url":"https:\/\/zaoud.it\/es\/products\/atralia-matcha-latte-edp","provider":"ZAOUD - Profumi Arabi di Nicchia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
