D'Annam is a fragrance brand out of Vietnam. Their fragrance inspiration is the beautiful Vietnam countryside, culture and cities.
Fragrantica - "I want to start by saying this is a beautifully blended fragrance and has a very photorealistic mochi smell. It is objectively a 10/10. "
Fragrantica - "There is a gentleness to this fragrance that is truly alluring. A soft, sweet, and calm sort of vibe. The sweetness in this comes from the vanilla as I get no strawberry whatsoever but, I don't really mind that too much. This smells like plain, fresh mochi with a generous dusting of rice powder. A very delicate, sweet, rice forward scent that sticks close to the skin. Fluffy and comforting. There is a slight difference in the initial spray and dry down, but it's so minute that I hesitate to add. It becomes a bit more sharp yet remains pleasant. Grateful for D'Annam for this one."
Fragrantica - "An EXTREMELY photorealistic rice fragrance."
Fragrantica - "This is one of the most unique fragrances I’ve ever smelled. It’s sweet and cozy without being overly fruity, and somehow really does smell like strawberry mochi. "
Fragrantica - "Smells photorealistic, FINALLY a gourmand that isnt super sugary, slightly sweet and just right. I smell the strawberry note, it’s just not overall synthetic/candy-like, it’s more subtle and realistic. "
