Issey Miyake incorporates exceptionally unique and rare materials to craft perfumes that evoke a sense of timeless freedom and serenity. L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme was conceived as a versatile Eau de Toilette, ideally suited for every occasion.
L'Eau d'Issey for Men is a woody aquatic fragrance. Its top notes feature yuzu, complemented by bright accents of bergamot, lemon, and tarragon. The heart of the fragrance leans into spicy and woody nuances: nutmeg and water lily blend to form an intriguing, unexpected harmony within this composition. As the scent evolves, its base notes deliver an intense, sharp woody aroma, enriched by the warm depth of tobacco, sandalwood, cedar, vetiver, and musk. This iconic fragrance was crafted by Jacques Cavallier in 1994.
