By the editors · 2 min readYuzu opens with a sharp, bright citrus burst that quickly settles into a crisp, tart aura. Basil introduces a fresh, green herbal quality that intertwines with the fruit, creating an aromatic and slightly piquant heart. Magnolia softens the composition with a subtle, creamy floral undertone that lacks heavy sweetness. Gunpowder in the base provides a dry, smoky and slightly mineralic texture that contrasts the initial freshness. The scent evolves from a zesty opening to a more unusual, arid and contemplative dry-down. Longevity is moderate, with projection that stays close to the skin after the first hour, best for cool weather and casual or contemplative occasions.
