d'Annam Da Lat EDP
Description
Da Lat was built by Anh Ngo with IFF and released in 2023 as a tribute to Đà Lạt, Vietnam's "City of Eternal Spring": famed for its pine forests, misty mornings, and cool highland climate.
Reviewers describe a refreshing, almost intoxicating opening of red wine, crisp juniper, and rose, softening into a green, slightly powdery floral. The wine note is bold at first spray, then blends into the rose-peony-magnolia heart for a romantic, sophisticated character.
