Cumin….with a dash of citrus and mint. Not what I was expecting.
unsaplyspadly – :
It’s supposed to be a fresh scent and it is – too fresh in a way, because I could not shake the feeling I was wearing a citrusy cleaning product and its longevity made it worse. It’s too simple to be interesting.
dailisoskars – :
this is what i get forget the note break down.
Get a sour green mango the type that are extremely sour /sharp in taste, get some fresh coriander chop them in small pieces put the whole thing in a bowl, add some fresh mint/basil, and squeze a combination of sour citrus on top and inhale everything in the bowl. also this does not smell of cannabis as i have many friends who smoke it. Do not blind buy as it isnt your regular citrus. it is very sharp on the nose but well blended. worth a try.

This is not complicated or long lasting, it’s just zingy, refreshing yuzu zest and mint, diffused with clean musk.
Nice for hot weather.

“Yuzu Fou”
“Yuzu Fou” سایت فرگرنتیکا ترجمه کرده به “crazy yuzu” من نمیدونم میوه یوزو چی هست!
فقط میفهمم رایحه این عطر یه معرکه به تمام معناست!
منو که دیوونه خودش کرد.
بوی این عطر برای من تلفیقی از رایحه پوست لیمو ترش و لیمو شیرین هست.
تابحال بوی لیموی شیرین رو در عطرها تجربه نکرده بودم.
فک کنین یه لیمو شیرین باحال رو قاچ زدید که آبش رو نوش جوون کنید، ولی نمیخورید یه چن دقیقه صبر میکنین، چی میشه؟ یکم تلخ میشه دیگه. این عطر دقیقا بوی لیموی شیرین بریده شده یی رو میده که یکم تلخ شده، البته رایحه لیمو ترش رو فراموش نکنید، اونم هست اما خیلی کمه.
این رایحه قاتل گرمای تابستونه، واقعا انرژی دهنده و نشاط آوره.
خلاصه ترکیبات واقعی این عطر چیه؟ با شامه انسانی قابل تشخیص نیست. ولی هر هنری که به خرج داده تا این عطر رو بسازه واقعا تحسین برانگیزه.
عطری به این شادابی با اینچنین پخش و دوام عالی، برای من که بینظیره.

I think Yuzu Fou is lovely. It’s a very interesting, gorgeous, unusual, unique perfume. Quite stunning. It moves a lot, and puts you through a heap of confused feelings. It’s a real adventure perfume! Lovely unusual mixture of citrusy smells: sweet, bitter and just a bit quirky, but it gets better and better as time goes on: and I love it!
I love the cedar and bamboo, they give such a clean openness, and the mint is so uplifting. But it’s the sweet limey aroma I love . It is yum.
VSlhawnD – :
It’s lime, but not as you know it. It’s not harsh or functional. It’s soft and sweet, with a little hint of sweet, chewable mint leaves. Perfect for a gentleman.

This Yuzu seems indeed a little Fou, it’s certainly not like any other citrus I’ve ever smelled. I love citrus in all its incarnations – bright, bittersweet, aromatic, even sugary. ‘Dirty’, however, was a new interpretation for me, and not one I was sure I even wanted to try, because I tend to have a hard time with darker, murkier elements in fragrances. What can I say, I’m not sure if I’m pure at heart, but my taste in perfume sure seems to be.
I’m glad I did try it, though, because as it turns out I rather like the so-called ‘skank’ in Yuzu Fou. I can agree with reviewers who’ve mentioned sweaty armpits, and it’s no fresh sweat either, but it’s not too much even for a reluctant beginner skank lover like myself. For one thing, I don’t get any pee, and for another the dirty vibe is balanced out beautifully by the clean bittersweet citrus notes and fresh green ones; I even detect something powdery or even soapy in there. The combination is certainly interesting, and as someone else has mentioned, even strangely addictive. I can’t stop sniffing my wrist, which is always a good sign.
The combination with heavier smells also makes this a lot less fleeting than most citrus fragrances, and a lot more suitable for year-round use because it’s so robust. It also feels more sophisticated and more grown-up, just generally more like a perfume and less like aromatherapy.
In conclusion, I like Yuzu Fou a lot, more than I thought I would. I’m not sure it’ll be a gateway into dirty perfumes for me, but I’m glad I got a small decant; it’s good to have an alternative citrus interpretation for days when the bright and sparkling scents I usually like just won’t do.

Out of the three citrus-centred fragrances from Parfum d´Empire (“Azemour les Orangers”, “Iskander” and “Yuzu Fou”), I find “Yuzu Fou” the most puzzling one. Especially its head initially proved a bit of a challenge for me, but to be honest, the more I tested it, the more accustomed I grew to its quirky prelude.
“Yuzu Fou” opens with a sparkling mix of citruses (bitter orange and yuzu) and mint. For some strange reason, when I sampled the perfume for the first time, the presence of the mint note reminded me of the smell of my dentist´s surgery. Perhaps it was just a subconscious association as mint often features in various dental care products. Instead of the image of the products, however, it was the image of the surgery which popped up whenever I tested “Yuzu Fou”. Anyway, the citrusy-minty opening soon gives way to another note in the composition, namely lemon verbena. It not only manages to sustain the freshness of the composition, but it also smooths it out.
There can be no doubt about who begot “Yuzu Fou”. All the fragrances in the Parfum d´Empire line have a distinctive olfactory quality that has become Marc-Antoine Corticchiato´s signature: the masterful blending of the notes, chypre-like abstraction and an air of edginess. The fabulous “Azemour les Orangers” remains my favourite citrus scent from this house, but “Yuzu Fou” can serve as a darn good alternative.
VladislavMGN – :
Wow, this is different. I’ve tried this, as I like citrus fragrances. I was excited to smell Parfum d`Empire’s version of citrus, because I assumed there would be some good twist to it, but I completely got lost at what I was smelling.
What are those repulsive notes? I thought, it’s just my chemistry. After reading the reviews, I am relieved I’m not alone in this. There are definitely “skank” and “cannabis” here. After a while the “bad” notes wear out quite a bit.
Nevertheless, as weird as it is, I like it a lot. It’s like guilty pleasure. I want to have it too, just not too sure how people around me will take it.
trott1982 – :
Its very alike Jo Malone’s Lime Basil & Mandarin. With Jo Malone, the scent stays just the same through the whole journey. Yuzu Fou on the other hand lays like a citrusblanket, soft but gives up on the basil quite fast. Im aware , or at least i see, that basil aint in it. Dont believe it! Haha. thin thin acuatic mint , that also turnes down pretty fast.
At the end, a shy eau d’ orange verte by hermes.
iPrizrak – :
It is on my want list. 🙂 i can smell lemon, verbena, plus something i called mint wind. Then it all gets sweeter and i get nutty or grain vibe together with white musc. Very nice, snuggly, lovely, Comforting frag.
Клерик – :
This is certainly a weird citrus…surprising, odd, nice and different. Strong and long lasting. I believe the odd note that some users perceive is the blend of a bitter kumquat, harsh yuzu and strong mint. I don’t feel any skank in it, but these notes, blended together, really make a strange composition. But I like it quite a lot.mit is so fresh that it’s almost itchy on your skin when applied. But I give it two thumbs up because of its freshness, boldness and for daring be different and opening a new path for citrus perfumes
gaponov1973 – :
I’m with those who smell skank. It starts off with a very strong sweaty male smell and not in a pleasant way, then segues into a strong urine note with eau de Chinese herbalist shop thrown. Just awful. Plus the nose singeing acridity that all Parfums d’Empire fragrances produce on my skin.
Normally, I’m inclined to give the perfume the benefit of the doubt and assume that there’s an audience out there for each one. But I have serious doubts about it in this case.
hoyy – :
I feel cheated! I got no skank from this. No sweaty armpits, no groin, nothing more adventurous than the cumin which appeared after a couple of minutes. Other than that this smells like a broader, bitterer, cumin-touched version of Eau Dynamisante: a little woody, a little fruity, a little balmy, a little spicy.
netpingus – :
Is this a joke? Absolutely hideous. A few of the reviewers have hit the nail on the head. It smells of the sweaty armpits of the lecherous old man you can’t bear to be in the same room with, and manky underwear. It smells like the hand you don’t ever want to shake… after it’s been rooting in the rubbish bin at the end of the day in the fruit market. It’s throat catchingly bitter for ages, like the public toilets in Derby Eagle Market which are doused with Orange cleaner to mask the grotesqueness of them. (Public convenience of the year 1899 I suspect). It morphs, painfully slowly, like syrup off a spoon, into a shrieking miasma that reeks of dried urine which I have had the misfortune to be behind in the post office queue on Pension Day. If someone gave me this as a present, I would cry.

I have a “love – hate” relationship with citrus dominated fragrances, so I was kinda scared to try this out. I dislike every single citrus fragrance which reminds me of some cleaning products or, god forbid, is mixed up with aquatic notes and (which in this case COULD be bamboo).
Luckily for me and “Yuzu Fou” this is not the case and I am not going to be writing a bad review. The citrus here is marvelous, it is strong, skanky and deeply provocative and sexual. The mix with mint is mouthwatering and addictive. This is so far the best citrus scent I have tried and even though at start this doesn’t feel too pleasant to smell (as I said – it is skanky) it is with no doubt extremely addictive.
I clearly wish to get a full bottle of this in summer and the we shall see how other people around me find this – skanky and addictive or just skanky?
290400 – :
On my skin felt mostly lemon verbena. Sour and citrus notes plus bamboo is easy to feel all the time, it is sour-woody-aquatic-green note that lasts few hours, radiates, but suddenly disappears … like it though.
igor8410 – :
Parfum d’Empire YUZU FOU is a pretty wild and assertive presentation of yuzu, I’d have to say. I smell more rind than juice in this composition and am reminded very much of a number of citrus colognes, especially geared toward men, which feature such notes as agrumes and petit grain. (This one appears to contain kumquat.) The citrus oil really shines through here and makes for a very aromatic composition indeed. To me, YUZU FOU seems quite linear, with no real development, and that makes it quite a bit less wacky than it might have been. Consistency is such that it does not and cannot really surprise.
Because of the oily citrus rind, YUZU FOU seems a bit heavy-handed for a hot weather scent, though the summery aspect of citrus makes it not that appealing for cooler weather either. This might be a rare case of a fragrance which I believe would benefit from dilution, since it a smaller spritz will still yield a concentrated spot of oil on the skin. All in all, I think it’s safe to say that I’m not crazy about YUZU FOU. Désolée.

The reviewer that used the word “skank” was bang-on, though not in the same context I would submit. My wife tried this on, and while not entirely unpleasant, I took one smell and immediately got a cannabis vibe from it. Seriously. It’s that strong, pungently green aroma from the verbena gone wild and untamed.
It is so provocative, so prompting of a response. I had to breathe this again to confirm my suspicions. Yes. Cannabis. Burning cannabis. Reminiscent of a college roomie smoking up in the dorm room and the scent wafting under the door into the hall. This really made me wonder if there was a contact-high at the end of the experience.
Provocative is a good word for it, but it seriously is a very lush and very different green than anything I’ve smelled in a fragrance. I’d be cautious wearing this unless you’re very adventurous!
ПАА – :
Bravo for the previous reviewer!!
I thought that with such notes Yuzu Fou could make a great summer scent for me or my man or both of us …
Nope! I can’t stand it.
It started fantastic, with sweet natural juicy citruses and some green notes. Then it became bitter and I started to be a bit nervous, I don’t like bitterness in my perfumes. Then it was only worse, all I could smell was actually fresh SWEAT.
So, to my nose this is a smelly one, and it’s not for me.
I recommend all skunk aficionados to try this unusual citrus perfume 🙂
Great projection and staying power.

This sample hit me right straighht in the gut. I was so longing for a bright effervescent fragrance given all the notes but something had to rear its ugly head amidst all that citrus notes to turn me off completely. A strange VERY skanky ( and I really mean nether regions skanky) musky smell amidst all that citrus green notes and I never did get that bamboo note in there at all!
