Thé Yulong
Unspecified
THE YULONG, the new fragrance from Armani Privé, draws inspiration from the Yulong Mountains, one of the most famous tea-growing regions in China. This new aromatic citrus fragrance recreates the scent of the Yulong tea and the contrast of cold and warm mists of the mountains through a unique blend of black and green tea extracts with zesty citrus notes. A unique combination of black and green tea extracts, the fragrance transports you on a journey of senses into the Chinese Yulong Mountains, while smoky notes of vetiver and a radiant citrus accord refresh the scent and evoke the natural essences of the mountain landscapes.
