In China, tea is a daily ritual of reflection and connection. This scent captures the layered elegance of oolong, infused with notes of pomelo and white blossoms. A refreshing harmony that echoes quiet conversations in sunlit tea houses.
Perfumer: Anh Ngo
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
A pause over freshly poured oolong, with daylight catching the rim of a porcelain cup. Pomelo gives the moment a bright edge, while tea and blossoms suit conversation that stays measured and attentive. The mood is composed and welcoming rather than formal.
How to wear
The citrus-and-tea profile lends itself to spring and mild summer weather. Start with one or two sprays on the wrists or upper chest for a restrained application. In warmer conditions, keep the dose light so the pomelo, blossoms and soft musk remain balanced rather than insistent.
Who it’s for
For those drawn to tea-centered fragrances, green citrus and softly musky finishes rather than sugary fruit or dense amber. Its porcelain-and-blossom concept will appeal to anyone who enjoys delicate textures and a composed, understated scent.

The nose
Anh Ngo, an IFF perfumer, created Pomelo Oolong. The composition brings together citrus brightness, a realistic oolong accord and soft floral nuances, with porcelain forming part of its sensory concept.
Collaborators
Founder Nick Hoang shaped the fragrance’s creative direction around an exceptional oolong he tasted in Shanghai. His brief sought to honor the care behind tea production through fresh pomelo, a realistic tea accord, white blossoms and a suggestion of porcelain.
d'Annam’s story
d’Annam is a Vietnamese fine-fragrance house exploring Asian cultures through collaborations with local perfumers, illustrators and artisans. Its guiding values—calmness, delight and respect—favor culturally attentive storytelling and sensory pleasure over loudness. Each collection offers selective, personal impressions rather than claiming to represent an entire culture.
Pomelo Oolong | 柚子乌龙茶’s concept
An exceptional oolong tasted in Shanghai provided the starting point for Pomelo Oolong. Created for Chapter 3: Majestic China, it translates the daily tea ritual into citrus, tea and blossoms, with a porcelain impression recalling the vessel itself. The setting is a sunlit teahouse, where reflection and conversation share the same unhurried rhythm.
Extra info
Porcelain is an explicit part of the fragrance’s concept and official note list, alongside oolong tea, pomelo, osmanthus and white musk. The brand presents these as a single list rather than a top, heart and base pyramid. Pomelo Oolong is also labeled vegan and cruelty-free.
