Awakening · No. 02
A yuzu perfume
Awakening is built to keep yuzu going after the citrus oil has evaporated. Green tea and magnolia leaf sit under it, vetiver and mate under that. It is a daytime perfume, not a sweet citrus.
The opening is sharp. On some skin it stays that way and can read like a cologne. If you want something soft, start with Stillness.

My main desire in composing Awakening was to extend the yuzu impression well beyond the evaporation of the natural citrus oils.
Choose it if
You want yuzu or green tea, and you like citrus that bites a little.
Skip it if
You want a creamy or sweet citrus. This will feel too bright.
