У парфумерії
Assam Tea is typically a heart note in compositions, giving a warm character that can anchor a fragrance. It works well with citrus notes, which brighten its richness, as well as with spices like cardamom and cinnamon that deepen its warmth. Its earthy undertones make it compatible with woody notes, allowing for well-rounded fragrances that carries comfort and complexity.
