The Issey Miyake L'eau D'Issey Pour Homme fragrance collection

Issey Miyake has a notable history of launching fragrances that reflect his innovative and artistic approach to design. Here is a brief overview of some of his notable fragrance launches:

L'Eau d'Issey: Introduced in 1992, L'Eau d'Issey became Miyake's first fragrance for women. It is known for its fresh, aquatic scent, blending floral and woody notes with a hint of melon. (God I love the smell of melon on a woman don't you? And that is not sarcasm). 

L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme: Following the success of the women's fragrance, Miyake launched L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme in 1994. This is one of the very first fragrances I ever owned. It is a masculine scent that combines citrus, spices, and woods to create a contemporary and timeless fragrance.

Nuit d'Issey: Introduced in 2014, Nuit d'Issey (sounds like a ballet that one would get strong-armed into going by their respective other and better educated half) is an oriental woody fragrance for men. It evokes the mysterious and captivating atmosphere of the night with its blend of spices, leather, and woods.

L'Eau Majeure d'Issey: Launched in 2017, L'Eau Majeure d'Issey (sounds like a cocktail one gets on a cruise to sound flush, though all they really wanted was a Red Stripe) is a modern and vibrant interpretation of the original L'Eau d'Issey fragrance. It combines marine and woody notes to create a fresh and invigorating scent.

These are just a few examples of Issey Miyake's fragrance launches. Over the years, he has continued to expand his fragrance line with new creations that showcase his artistic vision and capture the essence of his brand. And NOW we have the Issey Miyake L'eau D'Issey Pour Homme fragrance collection which offers a range of captivating scents for men. Here's a review of the entire collection:

L'eau D'Issey Pour Homme: (As mentioned above) The original fragrance in the collection, it's a classic blend of citrus, spice, and woody notes. It's fresh, clean, and elegant, perfect for both casual and formal occasions.

L'eau D'Issey Pour Homme Intense: (Like the Pour Homme only without the humour and always talks politics over dinner). This fragrance takes the original scent and amplifies its intensity. It features a stronger mix of spices, incense, and dark woods, creating a more seductive and mysterious aura.

L'eau D'Issey Pour Homme Sport: Designed for the active man, (not the ones into blogging, Gogglebox, or collecting miniature Star Wars figurines) this fragrance combines fresh citrus notes with a hint of spices and aquatic accords. It's vibrant, energetic, and invigorating, making it an excellent choice for sports and outdoor activities.

L'eau D'Issey Pour Homme Fraîche: (God sounds like the best ice cream in the world right?) With its lighter and more refreshing composition, this fragrance offers a cooler take on the original scent. It features a blend of citrus, herbs, and woods, creating a crisp and invigorating aroma.

L'eau D'Issey Pour Homme Wood & Wood: (The wood so good they named it twice). This fragrance celebrates the captivating scent of wood. It combines different types of woods, such as sandalwood and cedar, with citrus and spices, resulting in a warm and sophisticated fragrance.

L'eau D'Issey Pour Homme Noir Ambré: This fragrance is a bold and intense interpretation of the original scent. It incorporates amber, leather, (and the leather really comes through on this one) and spices, creating a rich and sensual aroma that exudes confidence and charisma.

Each fragrance in the L'eau D'Issey Pour Homme collection has its own unique character, but they all maintain the signature elegance and sophistication that Issey Miyake is known for. Whether you prefer a fresh and clean scent, a sporty and energetic vibe, or a more intense and seductive aroma, there's a fragrance in this collection to suit your preferences.
