Eau De Nyonya

Eau de Nyonya is a rich, gourmand fragrance that evokes the essence of Southeast Asian desserts, particularly rice-based treats like pulut or coconut pandan mochi. The opening features a bold, realistic pandan note that is green, nutty, slightly toasted, and caramel-like—immediately recognizable to those familiar with Malaysian cuisine. It lingers with creamy, sweet rice pudding notes enhanced by coconut milk and subtle dark chocolate, all anchored by warm, powdery florals like jasmine sambac and violet, and a hint of ambergris and suede. Over time, the scent evolves into a sensuous, slightly smoky, and deeply textured drydown—smooth, sweet, and quietly addictive—offering a balance between gourmand sweetness and oriental elegance. On the skin, it demonstrates exceptional longevity and strong sillage, transforming into a deeply intimate yet impactful aura. While some find the initial burst intense or even 'candle-like' in its brightness, most agree that the fragrance settles into a spellbinding, elevated gourmand experience that feels both nostalgic and modern. The fragrance has an unmistakable identity that appeals strongly to lovers of gourmands, niche oriental scents, and those drawn to Southeast Asian aromas. It is widely regarded as unique and artistic—some see it as being more mature and nuanced than typical gourmands, with layers of complexity that reveal themselves in layers over time. It is best worn during evening hours or in autumn and winter, where its warmth is most appreciated. Despite being thought of as gourmand, the fragrance avoids being cloying or excessively sweet, making it wearable for those who enjoy a restrained, rich, and aromatic style without traditional pretensions.
