This one is a sharp green citrus. The mint gives a cheap expression to it. After half an hour only sour juices remain.

Completely flawless take on traditional animalic citrus chypre theme. It smells like a well made classic cologne juice with magnificent, subtle contemporary touch.
Marvellously crafted with perfect balance. Bitter and dry (yet refreshing), green, very natural with notable animalic undertones. Rich and deep with terrific development. Strong enough with all-around-clock lasting power.
Despite the (wonderful) name verbena is a key player in this scent as you shall see.

Amazing stuff and very suitable for continual use. All around the year – anywhere, anytime.

Practical fragrance that is not a boring.

Yuzu Fou is a completely putrid take on the whole grapefruit / yuzu theme. It certainly doesn't smell fresh, balanced or even alluring.

For a better interpretation of Yuzu, try Diptyque's Oyédo.

This is one of the first times that it seems as if I can actually separate some of the fragrance notes, especially: the yuzu (a tart Asian "tangerine-like" citrus, I now know), the kumquat (yes, I remember smelling ornamental kumquat trees before). the mint, and the verbena. Maybe even the white musk trailing off at the end. Very intriguing. I don't know if it is "me", but I like this more every time I try it. This might be a fragrance to help me turn a corner on what I like.
