Fragrance Notes
L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme Gift Set
The base is what holds Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme together: sandalwood, vetiver and amber, dry and quietly warm under a top of yuzu, lemon and tangerine and a heart of water lily. The citrus is what you notice first; the wood is what stays. It is dry rather than sweet from beginning to end.
It moves from a sharp, bitter citrus opening through a cool aquatic floral middle and into that woody finish, with vetiver giving the earth, sandalwood the creaminess and amber the softness at the end. Lavender and fresh spicy notes sit in the heart, and the aromatic and herbal character throughout keeps the fragrance clean rather than sweet. The citrus gives way quickly and the dry-down is the part you actually live with.
L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme was created by Jacques Cavallier and released in 1994. Issey Miyake established the Miyake Design Studio in April 1970, and the house entered fragrance with L'Eau d'Issey in 1992, built around water, which Miyake called both the greatest material and the greatest source of inspiration.
Both longevity and sillage are moderate, so it wears close to the skin and stays personal rather than carrying across a room. It is wearable in every season, at its easiest in the warmer months, and fits casual wear, professional wear and an evening out alike. This one comes as a gift set.
