A fragrance inspired by opposites — exquisite allure and emotional depth. Bergamot and cardamom sing while white and black tea cascade into a luscious tapestry of blonde woods and velvet musk.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
An afternoon with a record playing and tea cooling beside you: the citrus and cardamom keep the mood alert, while darker tea and soft musk give it an inward turn. It suits an unhurried conversation where your presence feels composed rather than formal.
How to wear
The citrus-and-tea balance makes this a natural choice for mild spring weather or temperate autumn days. Start with one or two sprays on the neck or forearms, allowing the tea notes to unfold before adding more. In warmer weather, a lighter application keeps the emphasis on the brighter opening rather than the woody-musky base.
Who it’s for
For those drawn to tea fragrances with both brightness and depth, and to green compositions softened by woods and musk. It offers an alternative to sugary comfort scents, combining a clean impression with dry spice and the darker texture of black tea.

The nose
Jérôme Epinette is known for lucid compositions that give distinctive ingredients room to breathe, balancing texture with a streamlined structure. His work includes Byredo’s Bal d’Afrique and Mojave Ghost. In Ethereal Wave, that approach finds expression in contrasting teas framed by citrus, spice, pale woods and musk.
Liis’s story
Founded by Alissa Sullivan and Leslie Hendin, Liis treats fragrance as a personal, everyday medium of artistic expression. Its restrained compositions draw on emotions and lived experience without prescribing a single interpretation, inviting the wearer to make the scent their own. The fragrances are made in California with organic sugarcane alcohol.
Ethereal Wave’s concept
Ethereal Wave translates the darkness and dreamlike rhythms of ethereal-wave music into a study of contrasts. Bright bergamot and cardamom meet delicate white tea and deeper black tea absolute, settling into woods and musk. The musical inspiration extends to the otherworldly sound and emotional depth of the Cocteau Twins.
Extra info
Despite its watery-sounding name, Ethereal Wave takes its principal inspiration from a musical genre rather than the sea. Its tea pairing is also unusually specific: white tea sits alongside black tea absolute.
