J-Scent Yuzu is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017. Yuzu opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Orange, settles into a heart of Grapefruit, Lime, Yuzu, and Thyme, and dries down to a base of Mandarin and Rose. J-Scent's Yuzu carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

J-Scent Yuzu is a tricky one. It's a hyper-realistic, unapologetically bitter citrus, loved by some for its unique, almost medicinal edge, and disliked by others for the very same reasons. Definitely try before you buy, it's not a crowd-pleaser.

About

Yuzu bursts forth with a bracing, almost harsh opening of lemon and bergamot, quickly joined by the sharp tang of grapefruit and lime. The namesake yuzu note is prominent, delivering more of its bitter rind than sweet juice. Thyme introduces an aromatic, green depth, adding to the scent's distinctive 'medicinal' quality before settling into a subtler, zesty mandarin dry-down with a hint of rose.
