More about BORNTOSTANDOUT Dirty Rice
Dirty Rice by BORNTOSTANDOUT is a unisex woody eau de parfum by Olivier Cresp, built around a warm, steamed basmati rice accord. Bergamot and almond give it a bright, slightly nutty opening, then basmati rice, milk and peony form a soft, creamy, skin-like heart. Sandalwood, vetiver, cedar, musk and Cetalox settle into a smooth, powdery woody base with a gentle milky warmth. Comforting and intimate rather than loud, Dirty Rice is easy to wear by day, from spring through autumn and winter.
