Oyédo
Yuzu strikes straight and almost biting, and raspberry gives it a fleshy underside without sweetening it. Thyme holds the aromatic line and keeps the citrus from burning off too fast.
Eau de Cologne Impériale
Lemon, bergamot and petitgrain over quiet neroli, with rosemary, cedar and tonka bean underneath. A short-lived cologne composed for the Empress Eugénie and still sold, meant to be reapplied freely.
