The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2018, Bois de Yuzu by Karl Lagerfeld is an aromatic spicy fragrance for men created by perfumer Émilie Coppermann. The composition opens with a burst of yuzu and ginger, bringing a fresh and invigorating energy that's both citrusy and spicy. As it evolves, the scent settles into a woody base of moss and papyrus, providing warmth and depth without losing its freshness. This contrast between bright top notes and earthy undertones makes Bois de Yuzu a versatile choice for day or night.

How to wear it

Given its moderate longevity and sillage, two sprays are sufficient for the scent to last through the day. The bright top notes will fade within an hour or so, making way for the warm woody base. Best applied in cooler weather when you want a refreshing yet comforting aroma.
