subtle but determined scent? 23 girl

Thread Starter 
No idea what frag is suitable, I'm not a fan of the feminine type, want something subtle but determined, maybe unisex?
I've got 3 preferences,
black tea, perhaps dominantly;
sandalwood;
and lime
any suggestions?
Thanks heaps ~

One of my favourite tea-scents is Serger Lutens’ Five O’clock Au Gingembre. Maybe you like it. There’s no sandalwood in it and no lime (but ginger and bergamot which adds an hesperidic edge). It’s definitely unisex and easy to wear, but also quite unique.

From the notes you might also like to try Sandalo e Thé by Bois 1920.

Creed Silver Mountain Water. You'll dig it.

Try l'Artisan Dzongkha every one seems to think there is a definite tea note there, maybe, but I find masses of cayenne pepper which I love. If you find it too overpowering, a step down might be Timbuktu by the same house.
