d'Annam Pomelo Oolong EDP

Description

Pomelo Oolong is d'Annam's tea fragrance, built by Anh Ngo and released in 2025 as part of the house's Memories of China chapter, which draws on the ritual of tea drinking rather than on citrus for its own sake.

Bright pomelo opens it with a sparkling lift, then softens as osmanthus drifts in with an apricot-like sweetness that sits naturally against the tea. Reviewers describe it as calming and elegant, and several note the osmanthus is dialled up further than expected. This is a soft, delicate scent, not a loud citrus blast.

Scent Character

• Fresh: 95% (pomelo, oolong tea, osmanthus)

Translation: a clean tea-citrus with a fruity-floral edge. Luminous and quiet, closer to freshly brewed tea in a sunlit room than to a citrus cologne.

Fragrance Pyramid

• Top: Pomelo
• Heart: Osmanthus, Oolong Tea
• Base: White Musk, Porcelain

Performance

Longevity: Light to moderate, commonly around 4–6 hours. This is a deliberately soft composition, and it wears like one.

Sillage: Close to the skin. Noticeable when someone steps into your space rather than across a room. A spritz on clothing helps it hold.

Best Occasions & Season

Made for spring and summer, and for everyday and leisure wear. Its softness is an advantage in heat, where heavier scents turn cloying.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it actually smell like tea?
Yes, though gently. The oolong reads as real brewed tea rather than a generic green accord, and it is tempered by osmanthus rather than sharpened by citrus.

Is it unisex?
Yes. Tea and osmanthus sit outside the usual masculine/feminine split, and it is worn widely by both.

Will it last a full working day?
Honestly, usually not. Expect to reapply if you want it past the afternoon. That is the trade-off for its softness.
