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!

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 is the most delightfully provocative citrus I've smelled since Gaultier's Ma Dame. There is an immediate burst of menthol up top that recedes into an orange that is tart, fresh, and green, more redolent of rind than fruit, and the rest of it is ferociously animalic without, to my knowledge, containing any actual animalics. It smells, to put it bluntly, of genitals (male AND female) and armpits. Eat an orange, and then put your hand in your undeodorized armpit, and then inhale deeply to get the idea. It's a strong perfume with good lasting power but manages to be transparent and subtle at the same time. I'm looking forward to buying a full bottle and wearing it next summer. Skank fans: get it.

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!
