An evening tea inspired by the jasmine fields of Grasse and the hush of twilight in Provence.
As the sun dips behind the hills of the Côte d’Azur and the jasmine of Grasse begins to bloom, the night air fills with a perfume that is soft, sweet, and fleeting. Clair de Jasmin captures this magical moment in a tranquil infusion: a tea designed for slow evenings, quiet conversations, and the gentle winding down of the day.
At its heart is a delicate white tea, hand-harvested and minimally processed to preserve its mellow sweetness and whisper of fruit. It carries just a trace of caffeine — enough for clarity, never too much for sleep. Jasmine petals, picked at dusk when their fragrance is strongest, lend their natural elegance to the blend, while linden blossom (tilleul), a classic from Provençal herbal traditions, calms the senses and eases the body toward rest. A final flourish of silvered almond slivers or candied pear adds a note of indulgence, evoking the quiet luxury of a Riviera dessert enjoyed by candlelight.
