Thé Yulong

Thé Yulong EDT Giorgio Armani Wooooo! This is really good. I live in a tropical climate and am always on the lookout for fresh fragrances that, of course, are interesting. From the start I get citrus. Not a sharp citrus but subtle. The lasting ending is non-overwhelming floral and definitely the tea notes. I love the smell of tea and find it a refreshing drink in hot weather. This fragrance doesn’t last on my skin and remains close on my clothes. Remember it is an EDT so I had no expectations of its longevity. I’ll be spraying heavy and often because I can’t get enough of it. This was a blind purchase for me. One can get lucky sometimes and this was a lucky buy. I can see this being a constant in my collection. I’m certainly addicted to this beauty.

Uplifting clean/soapy tea supported by tangy florals, absolutely beautiful and refreshing. Weak performance

I'm a beginner in the world of fragrances so my reviews will not be detailed as many others on here in terms of picking up scents. I tried Kilian's Bamboo Harmony side by side with Armani's Yulong and my experiences are as follows: Scent Both start off similarly in that there is a burst of citrus, on my skin Bamboo Harmony has a lighter burst of citrus than Yulong which I like. Yulong has a much stronger burst of citrus which to me is too a little too much when looking for a subtle tea fragrance. As both fragrances dry down the Yulong smells like earthy matcha whereas Bamboo Forest smells like delicate floral tea with a tint of earthiness. Not too much floral where it smells like perfume but enough for you to know it's undoubtedly there. Whereas Yulong smells slightly more masculine Bamboo Forest is definitely unisex in my opinion. Longevity: Bamboo Forest really disappoints when it comes to longevity, only lasting about 3 hours before it clings very close to the skin and about 7 hours until I can't smell it at all even with my nose to my wrist. Yulong lasts for about 6 hours before clinging to the skin and runs out completely after 10 hours. Value: I like the delicate scent of Bamboo Forest more than Yulong but I cannot justify the $260 price tag for a fragrance with such little longevity. If Bamboo Forest lasted 6+ hours I would very strongly consider purchasing it. Side by side with Yulong I would buy Yulong even though I don't like the scent as much largely due to similarity, longevity, and its $180 price tag.

I heard that this becomes really rare in market In indonesia it cost USD 140 for 100ml. Damn. 🥵🥵🥵🥵

Good scent, definitely tea notes from the start, and the citrus comes shortly after. It has short longevity and weak performance, but it sure has a delicious soapy smell. I would recommend this, but consider its weak projection and longevity.
