Juicy yuzu with a pleasantly juicy fruit and sweet base
A review of a Mancera that has been in my collection for a little while now. I haven't worn it that often yet, but it's an absolutely great release if you like juicy fruit and especially appreciate those great yuzu notes. This fragrance didn't make the big "breakthrough", but in my eyes it's a great uniquely summery scent that you can also wear for the day because of its pleasant sweetness. Unlike most Mancera's in my collection, I only bought a 60ml instead of 120ml. You can also use a large bottle if you like this juicy and sweet DNA. There are plenty of occasions to wear this yuzu fragrance.
The signature of this fragrance clearly goes in the Mancera direction: catchy, not too "niche", original and simply very pleasing. In addition, this Fabulous Yuzu is also a fragrance that conveys these good mood vibes well with this juicy sweetness. The yuzu note is not as authentic as other fragrances with this note, as the other notes blend well into this combo. This means that yuzu is not necessarily the sole star of this creation.
In terms of price, the Mancera's are top in my eyes. You always get fragrances that perform well, are of good quality and don't cost the earth. About the same as upmarket designer prices. You also get fragrances that are easy to wear and simply very pleasing.
Here too, Fabulous Yuzu is a very appealing fragrance that doesn't go too much in that run-of-the-mill direction that everyone has already smelled. The yuzu fragrance DNA is quite unique. The yuzu note is a note that should be much more present in the fragrance world. But at least you get something special when you choose a yuzu fragrance. This is simply an Asian fruit that has this great juicy, citrusy touch. The note comes out well here too, but is accompanied by lots of sweet notes, fruits and subtle floral notes. A great mix that you get here.
The top note is really juicy and puts you in a good mood. Mandarin and lemon also go well with yuzu and provide a great fruity, juicy, citrusy touch. There is also a cinnamon note that fits in surprisingly well. Not too wintry, rather special with this juicy fruit. This is followed by soft floral notes that are not too feminine. Rather soft and also somewhat calming. The base is a sweet-woody combo, slightly creamy. Vanilla-tonka-sandalwood always works and is also quite pleasant here. The sweetness from the base sets in early and actually starts with the top note. When the citrusy-fruity notes disappear, this sweet note naturally intensifies. All in all, a well-rounded fragrance from front to back.
Performance is good, but you would expect that, especially with this base. You get a minimum of 8 hours and up to 10 hours. The juicy sillage in the first few hours is really very strong and pleasantly refreshing. After 2-3 hours, it becomes a bit too close to the skin. Absolutely sufficient and good.
Overall a great release from Mancera. I really like this juicy DNA and this one is sure to stand out and not get lost in the crowd. Great for not too hot summer days. Also a great alternative for transitions for men & women.
