d'Annam Mango Sticky Rice is a new eau de parfum from the brand celebrating Asian culture through fragrance, and it pays homage to Thailand's most beloved dessert. This unisex scent features prominent accords of ripe mango and creamy coconut milk, with tender sticky rice at its center to provide a touch of sweetness and tons of comfort.
Rice notes are in high demand across perfumery, offering a softer, more understated way to satisfy the demand for gourmand scents without leaning into the overt sweetness of vanilla or caramel. On their own, rice notes on skin tend to read warm and milky, and d'Annam's Mango Sticky Rice amplifies these qualities with notes inspired by the other key components of a classic Thai treat.
