This is the perfect middle ground photorealistic matcha fragrance. It has the slightly bitter earthy matcha powder on top (hence the warning to non matcha lovers), but evolves into the creamiest, vaguely sweet matcha latte. If you've tried some gourmand heavy others and thought, "I like this but I wish it had more matcha," this is it. If you've tried the more astringent others and thought, "I wish this were slightly less bitter," this is also it. Don't be afraid of the butter note. It just thickens it up a bit.
