Yuzu → cold compress
It's a domestic brand, but I'll review it without any bias.
One word: I don't recommend it to those who are looking for the scent of yuzu only.
Scent:Is it the scent of yuzu itself? Is it a single note of the scent of yuzu? → No, if you buy yuzu essential oil, you'll understand, but it's not a perfect reproduction of the scent of yuzu. If you want to taste real yuzu, the easiest way is to use yuzu essential oil. Since yuzu is not eaten, the peel is mainly used.
I have tried both Oyédo and Guerlain's Aqua Allegoria Forte Oud Yuzu .
Oyedo → At first, it has a refreshing peel scent of yuzu, such as lime and lemon bergamot, and later a benzoin-like scent comes in and it becomes a sweet scent.
Oud Yuzu → Heavy yuzu. Personally, I thought it didn't make the most of the goodness of yuzu. If you mix yuzu with oud or something similar, it becomes a cacophony like a light bird with a stone on it.
The yuzu in J-Scent is quite refreshing. It also has no astringency or bitterness like essential oils. In the background, you can always smell a refreshing herb like eucalyptus along with the yuzu. It's more green than citrus. So I can understand why some people think it's like a throat lozenge. Also, a menthol-containing compress.
After about 30 minutes, the yuzu scent disappears and it becomes an herb-like scent of thyme and eucalyptus. It's like a Santa Maria Novella with less ingredients. It reminds me of the muscle pain gel I bought in Italy a long time ago.
After 2 hours, it's a completely herbal scent. It smells like a compress. This lasts until the end, but if you just put it on your skin, it will last about 3 hours.
Oyedo's perfumer is Japanese, so I can't say for sure, but what's different from fragrances for overseas markets is that they don't use any strong synthetic musk, synthetic amber, patchouli, or vanilla in the base. I think that gives it a unique transparency.Perhaps for people who are used to strong designer perfumes, the fact that they don't use any synthetic musk is novel.
Conclusion: If you're looking for pure yuzu, buy the essential oil. If not, this scent contains a menthol-like herbal scent. It's like a medicinal patch. I think the reason they added it is probably to give you a refreshing feeling in the summer, and to maintain the lightness of yuzu while not creating a persistent scent that relies on synthetic musk. It's not suitable for people who just want pure yuzu. Completely unisex.It has an even lighter scent than the Guerlain Aqua Allegoria series.
(Background)
Yuzu was introduced from China and is native to that country.It is said to have been introduced in the early Heian period, and was cultivated domestically during the Asuka and Nara periods.It is still cultivated today, and Japan has the largest production volume in the world. In Japan, it is a tradition to put yuzu in the bath on the winter solstice. The oil that seeps out of the peel warms the body during the cold season. It is also often used in cooking and desserts. The scent is difficult to describe, but it is sweet like tangerine but not as bitter as lime. However, it is not as sharp as lemon.
