Inspiration
Inspired by the quirky and whimsy chaos of Alice in Wonderland’s tea party, Ten Sixth celebrates the beauty of rituals in the unexpected––where nonsense makes sense. Just like the Mad Hatter’s chaotic yet rhythmic tea party, this fragrance balances contrasts: floral and earthy, sweet and creamy, surprising yet balanced.
“Ten Sixth was inspired by my love for tea and the quirky, obscure, magic of Alice in Wonderland. I’ve always been drawn to the playful absurdity of the story—how its chaos somehow still makes sense. Tea, for me, is synonymous with ceremony. Across cultures, it’s a ritual that brings comfort and connection—whether it’s brewing chai in India, a Chinese tea ceremony, preparing matcha, British teatime, or sweet tea in the South, where I’m from. With Ten Sixth, we’ve reimagined tea time with a CarteHaus twist. It’s about creating a moment of balance in your day, with a little touch of the unexpected."
