Matcha

Scent Breakdown

Matcha by Fragrance World aims for zen. The opening is bright, mimicking Matcha Meditation's citrusy green tea accord. Bergamot and mandarin provide a cheerful lift, though a slightly synthetic edge is present. The white chocolate in the base is more of a suggestion than a creamy indulgence. The moss and cedar provide a grounded, woody dryness that keeps it from becoming cloying. It captures about 90% of the original's essence. The biggest difference? The original has a smoother, more refined blend.

Longevity & Projection

Longevity is moderate. Expect around 4-5 hours of noticeable presence before it fades into a skin scent. Projection is intimate; it's not a room filler. It creates a personal bubble of calm. Perfect for close encounters or quiet contemplation.

Bottom Line

This clone is for the pragmatist. If you crave the Matcha Meditation vibe without the Maison Margiela price tag, this is a decent option. It suits the individual who appreciates subtle fragrances, someone comfortable in their own skin, and projects a sense of quiet confidence. But for most, Matcha by Fragrance World offers a very respectable alternative for everyday wear.
