Some found it in childhood. Some in winter. Some in saying goodbye. Some in the quiet hope that follows. Together, they created a collection that reminds us that melancholy isn't only about sadness. Sometimes it marks the beginning of healing, remembering, or becoming someone new.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrom Perfumer Gatsby Yeh\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eA piece of pineapple cake, a cup of hot oolong tea, and a few drops of tears and smiles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTears and Smiles is a mixed-emotion gift box. When we are full of thoughts about “what if,” we eventually realize that we will never be able to go back. The scent opens with bright and joyful fruity notes of ripe pineapple jam with warm freshly baked cookie, followed by a sip of freshly brewed hot oolong tea. The bittersweet, roasted aroma brings us back to the present moment. You know this is adulthood and the so-called process of growing up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fragrance was inspired by the feeling of homesickness. After living away from home for decades, when you return to where you grew up, everything feels familiar, yet nothing is the same anymore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfumer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGatsby Yeh\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredient Focus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePineapple\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProvenance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTaiwan\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003epineapple, oolong tea, butter cookie, bergamot, flour accord, teardrops, paper accord, sandalwood, guaiacwood, silk musk \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Scent Trunk","offers":[{"title":"50ml Eau de Parfum","offer_id":48513358758133,"sku":"SCT-TEA-50","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1.5ml Spray Sample","offer_id":48513358790901,"sku":"SCT-TEA-S","price":6.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0403\/2605\/files\/Tears_and_Smiles_50ml_by_Scent_Trunk_39f9a228-fb11-47b5-b9f0-f9a1d295b7a4.jpg?v=1786491382","url":"https:\/\/ministryofscent.com\/products\/tears-and-smiles","provider":"Ministry of Scent","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
