Created by perfumer Andreas Wilhelm, Yuma is the "Elixir of Balance" within the Pernoire collection. The name is a portmanteau of its core pillars, Yuzu and Mint, acting as a metaphor for inner clarity and harmony. Inspired by the Swiss Alps, it captures the sensation of standing atop a mountain peak: lungs filled with crisp alpine air, the mind still as a glacial lake, and the noise of the world far below. It bridges the gap between the invigorating energy of the summit and the deep, silent strength of the stone beneath.
