I'm not usually a floral fan, but this tea is amazing! I went into the store trying to decide between this tea and the spiced mandarin oolong, so I got a cup of this tea. After the first sip (with which I burned myself like an over-eager idiot) I was sold. I've been drinking it non-stop since, and am on the 3rd brewing of this current batch. It is still good, but I don't think I'll push it, as I taste a slight weakening of the flavours. The strawberry is quite noticeable, and the roses make a nice counterpoint. I think the vanilla adds the smoothness more than anything else, and the champagne undertones only come out as you let the sip slide down your throat. All told, this tea is one of the best, if not the best I've ever had. I will certainly continue to buy it. It has even managed to temporarily steal me away from my beloved earl grey creme. How long this will last I don't know, but it is quite a feat. Use slightly more than what is recommended if you want the flavours to really have a kick!

This tea was so superbly described at the store that I did not hesitate in buying it. Boasting roses, strawberries, and even champagne notes, it had nothing unlikeable at all! However upon brewing the tea, it lost quite a bit of that magic within the first few sips. My mouth was not immediately wowed by the taste, nor impressed by the subtlety of the flavors. There is a somewhat unpleasent medicinal taste to this tea, which does require an extra teaspoon to bring the flavors up to an acceptable taste range. Also there was the tangible, artificial taste that lingers on your tongue long after you swallow it. All in all, it is not the beautiful tea it looks/smells like it should be.

Absolutely delicious! From the first smell of the fresh and sweet aroma in the store to when I tried it for the first time at home, this tea is my favorite! It's light, delicious, and naturally sweet (so, it doesn't require much or any sugar). Everything and more I hoped for. Will definitely recommend and continue to buy this tea!

I personally hate the tast of medicine but I just HAD to try this tea. The description made it sound amazing but I however, did not find it as amazing. Not only did it smell like NyQuil to me but it tasted like some type of nasty medicine you take when you have a cold. :(

I love this tea! It is great any time of the day. It especially helps me relax after a long day at work. I blend it with Peach Tranquility and Strawberry Paraiso. Most of the time I just drink it by itself with a little sweetener. I would say though because Teavana teas are loose it is kind of a mystery what your tea will be like when you drink it. I try to always make sure there is a rose bud and a strawberry in the mix before I steep my tea, that way it always tastes relatively the same!

This tea is amazing. I love it as a relaxing, afternoon tea. The smell is amazing, but the flavor is beautifully subtle.

My husband and I tried this tea at the store. We both found it to have a strong floral aroma and taste that overwhelmed the other flavors. The floral taste also gave the tea a somewhat artificial and medicinal flavor. I believe this tea would be very good if they left out the roses.

I received this tea as a gift on Valentine's Day. I was excited about the tea before I opened it, considering it seemed a romantic tea. However, on opening the packets, I was overwhelmed by a very artificial aroma. The heavy smell would be better suited as a candle or potpourri. I also received a tea tin to store the tea, however, this tin has been completely adulterated by the tea. I cannot get the smell out of the tin. The only redeeming factor of this tea is that it is an oolong and the artificial aroma mellows out after you brew it. Buyer be warned.

I am not a huge fan of floral, but the description sounded too good to pass on trying. It is floral, but not overly so. You don't get too much of the strawberry right up front, but rather more as an afterthought, which is nice. It seems like a great morning tea, but I also looked forward to coming home and having a glass as well. This is even better paired with something equally as light and fresh. In my case, I've blended it with Peach Tranquility. The peach and lemon verbena add a fruitier note to it, and it's really quite good. (Granted, I don't get any of the pineapple from that tea on its own, but that's for another review!) All in all, a very, very good tea, but even better blended!

The first tea I bought and fell in love with it! Its delicious, calming and smells heavenly! It says to steep it for two minutes but I recommend leave it steep for 3-4 and add some sugar. Will always keep this on my shelf!

At first the smell was kind of artificial and overpowering, but later I got to like it. This has a mellow strawberry flavor without being too sour (a downfall of fruity teas). The tea has lots of elements to it (even an ample supply of anise seed) that add to its flavor. It is good for multiple steeps and becomes more mellow after one or two steeps.
