d'Annam | White Rice Eau de Parfum
White Rice is a tender, intimate skin scent that serves as a tribute to one of Vietnam’s most essential cultural symbols. Far from a heavy gourmand, this fragrance captures the delicate, "steamy" aroma of freshly cooked jasmine rice. It opens with a unique, nutty-sweet combination of rice and pandan leaf, creating a comforting and nostalgic aura. As it develops, powdery orris and soft jasmine provide a sophisticated floral structure, while a base of white musk and tonka bean ensures a clean, creamy finish that sits close to the skin. It is a perfect choice for those seeking a scent that feels like a "second skin", clean, peaceful, and effortlessly elegant.
