Yuzu Fou from Parfum d'Empire is a fragrance as sparkling and wonderfully fresh as Japan itself. Yuzu Fou immerses you in the contemporary and vibrant avant-garde of Japan with its colourful manga and linear architecture. All this is as much a part of Japan as its motivated and optimistic population, who always seem to have their eyes on the future. With its green, explosive notes, Yuzu Fou is reminiscent of that hyper-urbanity that combines high-tech and nature just as glass and steel facades border lush gardens.
Yuzu Fou seems almost like a living embodiment of the Japanese citrus fruit of the same name, yuzu. Its incomparable scent seems to be omnipresent in Japan – whether on the coast or in the medical or gastronomic sectors. Kumquat, the ‘lemon tree of Japan’, accompanies this with a hint of bitterness, rounded off by notes of rare bitter orange. Mint adds a touch of menthol freshness to the composition.
Yuzu Fou invites you to embark on a journey of self-discovery. To find peace in an otherwise hectic everyday life and live without unnecessary baggage. Just like treating yourself to some time out at a spa. Warm notes of cedarwood are designed to provide precisely this kind of relaxation. These are accompanied by the woody notes of precious green bamboo, while verbena adds a gentle, slightly metallic facet. The hesperidic freshness is complemented by wonderfully woody, warm notes in the heart, which give Yuzu Fou its depth. This is mixed with the scent of neroli, which adds delicious floral orange accents. The entire fresh, green fragrance composition is nestled on a powdery, cosy bed of white musk.
Yuzu Fou is a lively green fragrance that is both vibrant and slightly bitter, natural yet sophisticated.
