Yuzu Style Perfumes

Yuzu is a small yellow fruit native to Asia, specifically China and Tibet. It arrived in Japan during the Tang Dynasty and is now an integral part of the Japanese culinary culture. Used on sashimi, in cooking and in teas, and of course now in perfume. It can also be found in ryokans, traditional Japanese inns, in stone baths and in Japanese bath houses, with half a dozen halved yuku segments floating on the water. On the winter solstice, the longest night of the year, there is a tradition to take a yuzu bath to avoid catching a cold for a year.
