1,200 meters. the altitude where sophistication is steeped
Jin Xuan is a geographical anomaly. At 1,200 meters, the Alishan mountain chill forces the tea leaf to develop a dense, silken oil.
This rare occurrence is the origin of the "milky oolong", a precise, impossible aroma that exists only at this elevation.
Nature's most sophisticated defense
Jin Xuan is known in Taiwan as "Taiwan Tea No. 12." It was bred for decades to capture the scent of cream without a drop of dairy.
This isn't a flavoured tea. The buttery weight comes from the leaf's own survival instinct. When the mountain mist hits the sun, the leaf releases a lactonic aroma that has made it the most coveted export of the Alishan peaks. It is a scent of pure, unadulterated luxury.
The aura of a high-altitude harvest
I realised that this tea was a unique way to capture a fragrance that behaves like a physical object.
Unlike traditional perfumes that vanish, Jin Xuan has the physical density to hold the air. It settles into tactile materials like stone and wood, creating a grounded stillness.
Mirroring a traditional Japanese interior, it follows the Tanizaki effect: an aesthetic where beauty is found in how matte surfaces swallow the light. By occupying the shadows, the fragrance becomes a permanent, invisible layer of the architecture.
A Hot bath in a cold wind
This infusion captures a single second of sensory tension I experienced in Hakone. I was submerged in a hot onsen, watching the mist roll off Mount Fuji. The mountain air was sharp, biting, and herbal, but the water felt like heavy silk against my skin.
Sweet Infusion 幻 was created to mimic that exact collision. The herbs replicate the freezing mountain wind, while the buttery Jin Xuan tea provides the weighted warmth of the bath. It is the precise moment you finally let out your breath.
Kekkai. The Japanese ritual of the border
In Japan, the bath is a sacred transition. The separation between the solitude of the toilet and the meditation of the tub creates Kekkai, a spiritual border that protects the stillness of the mind.
Sweet Infusion 幻 creates this boundary where physical walls are missing. Utilising the deep Jin Xuan and bright Bergamot, it zones your interior with a molecular signal that the noise of the day has ended and the purification has begun.
3 Layers of sensory depth
The journey opens with the top: a bracing surge of cardamom and rosemary that mimics the sharp, herbal chill of a mountain wind.
It settles into the heart: the silken, buttery core of Jin Xuan Tea and bergamot, capturing the impossible density of the high-altitude harvest.
the anchor is the base: a lush foundation of magnolia and tuberose that gives the scent its permanent, elegant stillness.
Finally, let out your breath, feel completely still.
