Nishane Wūlóng Chá
Citrus, oolong tea and fig on musk
Wūlóng Chá is a tea perfume that opens as a citrus one: bergamot, orange, litsea and mandarin. Oolong tea and nutmeg sit at the heart, and the base is musk and fig. It is a fresh scent with a green, slightly dry middle rather than a sweet one, and it comes from the first collection of the house.

How it unfolds
-
Citrus first
Bergamot, orange, litsea and mandarin make a layered citrus opening. Bergamot is the slightly bitter, floral-edged one, orange and mandarin are the sweeter, juicier ones, and litsea adds a sharp, lemony lift. It is bright and quick, and it sets the fresh tone.
-
Oolong and nutmeg
In the heart, oolong tea brings a dry, leafy, faintly roasted quality, and nutmeg adds a little warm spice and sweetness. This is where the perfume turns from citrus into tea, and where the green side of its profile is easiest to read.
-
Fig and musk
The base is short and soft: fig, with its milky, slightly green sweetness, and musk, which smooths the edges and stays close to the skin. The brand points to Mediterranean fig. There is no heavy wood or resin here, so the perfume finishes clean.
Wearing it
When, who and why
How to wear it
Wūlóng Chá is light on base notes, so it feels airy even as an extrait. It works best in daytime, in spring and summer, and in places where a quiet, fresh scent is welcome, such as an office. Two or three sprays are enough on chest and wrists.
Who it is for
For people who like tea, citrus and green notes and want a perfume that stays tidy and bright instead of sweet or heavy. It fits work days, travel and warm weather, and it is a sensible first niche perfume for anyone who prefers freshness to richness.
Why choose Nishane Wūlóng Chá
Wūlóng Chá comes from the first collection Nishane launched globally, in 2015, and the label on the bottle names Shanghai. The brand keeps the idea simple: citrus over oolong tea and nutmeg, closing on fig and musk, in an extrait that stays fresh rather than heavy.

Questions
Frequently asked
What concentration is Wūlóng Chá?
Extrait de Parfum. The concentration is high, yet the notes are light, so the result is fresh and clear rather than heavy.
Is the tea note obvious?
Oolong tea sits at the heart with nutmeg, so it appears after the citrus opening. Expect a dry, green tea character rather than a sweet one.
How should I apply it?
Two or three sprays on clean skin, at the chest or wrists, are enough. Fresh citrus and tea notes open best on bare skin, so avoid layering it over another scent.
What size is this bottle?
This listing is the 50 ml size. Nishane's bottles are square glass with a gold cap, and the label on this one names Shanghai.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all excellent. I’m very satisfied. 👍💯👍
Very good quality profume, it last long and it has a good price for its incredible aroma and mixes of fruit and wood smell
A cozy, slightly sensual vanilla that feels like warm night air by the sea. Easy to love if you enjoy gourmand perfumes with a soft smoky edge.
This perfume is really well blended, I just removed a star because I personnaly don't like the top note (citronella)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
FragranceGems is again really quick with their releases. I hope this one smells better than Too Damn Good. Already rating a 5 star because of previous experiences!!
Already pre-order. As always, FragranceGems is the first with good releases. Looking forward to my bottle!
The cap of the bottle came with a small part of it broken off and the glass pieces were in the box
