d'Annam Monsoon Tea is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Anh Ngo. Monsoon Tea opens with Bergamot and Petitgrain, settles into a heart of Lily of the Valley and Green Tea, and dries down to a base of Musk. d'Annam's Monsoon Tea carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

Monsoon Tea is a divisive scent, some hail it as a beautifully naturalistic green tea experience, while others find it too subtle, too green, or simply unremarkable. If you're after a photorealistic green tea, this could be your jam, but don't expect it to shout about it.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its intimate sillage and moderate longevity make it suitable for office wear, as it won't overpower. The fresh, clean profile is perfect for casual daytime settings and could be refreshing for light sport, though its subtlety might be lost in more active scenarios.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Imagine the air after a spring shower, as bright bergamot and sharp petitgrain cut through the humidity, reminiscent of freshly squeezed lime. This invigorating opening soon mellows into a tranquil heart of delicate lily of the valley and bitter green tea leaves. The journey culminates in a soft, ethereal musk, a clean skin-scent that leaves a whisper of freshness in its wake.
