It makes no sense to write a commentary on a designer fragrance that has long since disappeared without a trace
But I don't care. I often find the lost treasures particularly interesting. Eau de Fleur de Yuzu is also a chance find on Ebay and I quite like wearing it in the warmer months.
There is no gradient and apparently the fragrance is supposed to be monothematic. Supposedly yuzu and grapefruit are supposed to smell quite similar. However, like the previous post, I can't find any grapefruit here. The citrusy scent is very soft and gentle, not a hint of sourness or sharpness. It has more of a floral undercurrent, could be violets, but very transparent, not as powdery as you often find in violet fragrances. Very pleasant. And it stays like this for about 3 hours. If I spray myself heavily, there is a bit of sillage, but it doesn't last any longer than that.
That's it already. The concentration is obviously EDT, but most of my colognes last longer.
Eau de Fleur de Yuzu is a feel-good fragrance for errands that are really annoying. Visits to the dentist, visits to the authorities, everything that is really stupid, because this gentle veil of fragrance has such an incredibly positive effect. That's why I forgive its short shelf life.
I am not surprised that Eau de Fleur de Yuzu has not been able to assert itself on the market. There is simply not enough going on here. I don't think I would have bought the fragrance regularly in a store either. The Kenzo fragrances are priced in the average designer range. Even though Eau de Fleur de Yuzu is really beautiful, it wouldn't be worth (an estimated) €40 to me because it's too simple and too short-lived. But as a cheap chance find, it gives me pleasure.
Finding unknown fragrances from (partly) well-known brands is always a lot of fun for me. Perhaps because you always associate something specific with the brands and are then often surprised.
