Four Chinese perfume houses, compared by what you love
You do not need to learn every house before choosing a perfume. Start with a note you already love, then use the differences between these four brands to build a small, useful shortlist.

Once Eau de Parfum ↗If you keep coming back to tea
CHASENSE gives you seven tea-led directions, from mint and green leaves to cocoa and roasted rice. To Define offers white tea against aromatic citrus in Once and dry hay in MeUnder. Chu Jian’s two oolongs bring fruit and flowers or warmer woods into the decision. Melt Season One Day places tea inside a brighter floral composition.
If woods are your starting point
Melt Season Meri moves from pine and leaves toward suede-soft woods. Chu Jian gives you two sandalwoods and a fir direction. To Define Flipped and Palpitate both finish with woods, but arrive there through tart fruit or cool mint and resin. Read the opening and heart as closely as the base.
If you want fruit or flowers
Try comparing Melt Season Lychee with To Define Flipped: lychee and rose with dry woods versus rhubarb, blackcurrant and cool greens. For rose, compare Nobody Knows with Chu Jian Ambergris Rose. For softer flowers around tea, explore CHASENSE Tieguanyin.
Let the format influence the commitment
To Define currently ranges from 30 to 50 ml; CHASENSE is 50 ml; Melt Season is 100 ml; the Chu Jian selection includes 30 and 50 ml extraits. Those are different purchases. Compare total price, size and how often you expect to wear the scent rather than choosing on concentration alone.
Choose two, then go deeper
Write down the familiar part of each composition and the detail that makes it new to you. Keep the shortlist small. Use the individual brand guides for a fuller comparison, or open the scent finder to filter the wider Anfulu selection by family and format.
