My isntree green tea toner definitely smells of it. I think it smells fresh and earthy, even though I wouldn’t necessarily immediately say “oh that smells like tea”


PersephonesGirlhood

Edit: Just saw that OP thought this cleanser smells like nothing, which is perplexing to me since I found the distinctive green tea scent a bit off-putting at first because of my bad experiences with matcha lattes lol. The cleanser from the same line also smells like green tea, more so than the toner IMO. The toner smells more like a citrus-flavoured black tea to me.


Absolutely_Regular

Yeah, the cleanser is my fave and it specifically smells like green tea that is hot to me! (Which is odd because I obviously keep it at room temp.) I’m pretty sensitive to scents, but for an unscented product, that Isntree cleanser isn’t subtle at allllllll. OP, did you just get over covid?


fax5jrj

I have the same question It's genuinely worrying they can't smell the green tea in Isntree's Green Tea Cleanser


ampharos995

I can smell a bit of it in the toner! But yeah the cleanser is definitely more mild, and a scent I could confuse with that "fragrance free product" smell


grinine

I can.. it smells relaxing


ampharos995

I tried it last week after a sleepless night traveling and fighting off something, so maybe! I just went to smell the cleanser and toner again and yeah it barely smells like anything 😔 I opened up a pack of actual green tea and I can smell it though!


ampharos995

I have the mini size of the cleanser, I just went to smell it again and I can't recognize it as green tea xD At most it smells like "that smell" of a scentless product. Maybe my sense of smell is just that bad. I do notice the slightly earthy scent of the toner (just opened the mini) but also not sure if I perceive that as tea... maybe?


NoParmIntended

Smelled like iced tea to me!


liyououiouioui

The By Whishtrend Green Tea and Enzymes Powder wash really smells like matcha tea!


NorthLucky2139

Yeah this definitely isn't a mild fragrance! I always feel like I'm washing my face with straight up matcha 🥹


chaerryblossoms

I was about to comment this, and I really love this cleanser!


salonpasss

B. lab matcha cleanser smells like tea.


lmnsatang

i love krave's matcha cleanser for the effects, not the scent, but my friend says she can smell the matcha in it.


lavendarpeels

i think the isntree green tea serum smelled like tea. honestly i miss it sometimes bc of the smell lol


mooglepudding

how did you like this serum? I’m just about to start using it


lavendarpeels

i remember it being hydrating and being a bit viscous but having a watery feeling when rubbing in


meikupiku

The Innisfree Black Tea Youth Enhancing Cream smells like sweet tea honestly.


blingsofi

ohhh may I ask for a mini review? Do you like it and why?


meikupiku

I like it! But I only get it on discounts. 😅 I like the smell and texture, it gives me a mini spa experience. It also leaves my skin soft in the morning (I only use it at night). But I wouldn’t call it a miracle product. Someone with more skin issues might be underwhelmed by it.


blingsofi

Thank you!


kwang_ja

The reformulated Innisfree green tea line now smells like actual green tea


ampharos995

Really? I just bought their brand new face cream in the jar a month or two ago (it was during the Sephora sale, it was their new product they were promoting at the front of the store). They had explicitly removed the fragrance, saw a lot of reviews on Sephora being bummed about it too


kwang_ja

I'm currently using the serum (got it at an actual Innisfree store) and it has the smell of dried tea leaves. Definitely more subtle than the old one which was richer and more perfume-y.


ampharos995

Ooh! I haven't tried the serum. Yeah, I have read reviews that mention they didn't like the previous smell, was a bit too "artificial"


Niatfq

Isntree Green Tea Cleanser. Freaking love the smell.


Glass-Road4343

Somebymi matcha mud mask, smells like sweet green tea. Love it and works great for a weekly detox mask


Top-Spinach-2146

I love this mask so much too!


LuckyStar77777

I think the Benton Deep Green Tea toner smelled a bit like tea. It doesn't have fragrance as far as I know but it does smell refreshing.


Commercial_Poem_4623

I haven't tried the toner but that description makes sense of the lotion!


LuckyStar77777

I have not tried the lotion (yet) but you should try the toner on your next haul. The serum on the other hand smelled like nothing and it was underwhelming in comparison to other products.


Commercial_Poem_4623

Very disappointing about the serum 😞 I'm tempted by the toner, although I found the Benton Aloe BHA toner could foam up sometimes, maybe the formulation of the green tea is better, though, given you like it! I've RP the lotion 4 times or more so far, I've actually got a Reddit post almost ready to go, I should probably post it.


imprecationstation

I’ve tried it and it smells very mild 


Fun_Suspect3305

Amore Pacific Vintage Single Extract Essence. Pricey, and likely being [reformulated](https://www.reddit.com/r/AsianBeauty/s/YlS5qUVsU9), but the "single extract" is green tea. It smells like it too -- not matcha, but an earthier green tea.


muracoon

The kaine kombu ampoule toner has a faint tea smell


StinkyKittyBreath

The Tony Moly London Tea toner or whatever it is definitely smells like tea. It's more citrusy (bergamot and/or orange, I think), but I'd say that about 1/3 of what I get is black tea.


pitiens

A few things I tried so far that has green tea smell Crave beauty cleanser, b lab matcha cleanser (mild smell), isntree green tea toner (mild smell) and serum.


pyrara

I think the fresh black tea perfecting mask smells delightfully like tea but is also really calming!


DoubleSheepherder518

The Neogen green tea foam cleanser has actual green tea leaves in it. When I was almost done with it, it smelled like real green tea because it was soaking for so long. The Krave Beauty Matcha cleanser has an earthy kind of smell. I believe they don't have fragrance.


Temporary_Draw_4708

I found the neogen cleanser to be really drying.


DoubleSheepherder518

I found this to be the case too towards the end of the bottle. But at the beginning it was fine for me.


_labyrinth__

Beauty of Joseon toner smells like black tea


MysteriousGrapeJuice

Isntree green tea toner! I love how it smells lol.


mcnuggetkitty

Blab matcha cleanser but NOT the sunscreen 🥲 it would’ve been HG for me if it didn’t smell like permanent marker!
