White Rice

by IFF , Anh Ngo

d'Annam White Rice is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by IFF and Anh Ngo. The fragrance opens with Basmati Rice and Pandanus, settles into a heart of Orris and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Tonka Bean.

Our verdict on White Rice: Favourite

Divisive, fleeting, and overhyped, White Rice struggles to live up to its name. Many rave about its cosy opening, but its disappointing longevity and quick dry-down to a generic musk leaves most wanting more from this 'rice-forward' scent.

About

White Rice opens with a soft, starchy whisper of basmati, laced with the sweet, green caress of pandanus. This gentle introduction quickly settles into a heart of powdery orris and delicate jasmine, before melting into a musky, subtly woody base of cedar and sweet tonka bean. It's an intimate, skin-close composition where the rice is a fleeting ghost, replaced by a clean, cosmetic-like musk.
