ISSEY MIYAKE L'Eau d'Issey, a fragrance that is what it says, Issey Miyake chose water, an essential element and source of purity, freshness and vitalty as the inspiration for his first fragrance L'eau D'Issey.

An olfactory revolution when it was first launched in 1992, it has become one of the great classics in the world of perfumery.

 The olfactory signature of L’Eau d’Issey Lotus, Rose, Lily and Precious Woods. An aquatic floral with a woody trail.

All the Love in the WORLD.

This is my favourite fragrance ever.

So fresh, so delicious - if someone walks past me wearing it I want to sniff them.

I own the Eau de Toilette and adore the way it holds a floral scent, yet has that wonderful oceanesque feel to it. Yum.

The packaging is super-sophisticated and looks fabulous in my beauty cubby (which is in a dark/light-free spot so as not to effect my perfumes)

This is the perfume I squirt on days when I feel the need for a pick-me-up, although due to the price I don't like to wear it every day.

Gorgeous Scent

This is such fresh, clean scent. I own two different versions of this:

- the EDP and -the limited edition, 'Une Goutte Sur Un Petale, A Drop On A Petal'

Amazing lasting power for the EDP, though not so much the EDT ltd edition.

EDP: this is a well blended mix of spring flowers with aquatic notes. It is quite strong in terms of silliage and longevity so would suit a night out

Limited edition: This is lighter than the EDP and less floral. It is also more fresh as a result of the citrus notes. There is a slight hint of musk though it's not particularly dominant. It smells slightly less natural than the EDP. This is more appropriate for day time wear.

The bottles for both reflect the scent inside: minimalist; modern and clean

Tips: This has many flankers which all sound appealing. Best to try to find the one that is most "you"

Heaven in a Bottle

This is a heavenly scent - fresh, light yet sensual and soft. Always use the EDP - if leaves a wonderful lingering scent that softens as the day goes on. A lot of scents smell like cut grass on me after an hour or so, especially if they are crisp or citrusy. This one does not react that way with me - it mellows into my skin and makes me feel feminine and sexy. You can't go wrong with this one if it suits your skin chemistry.

hI bought myself a bottle of this perfume after testing it in Farmers. Absolutely love it... and agree that the scent warms and lingers on the skin. I wear perfume every day... but this is my 'going out'/special occasion scent :)

My go to feel good fragrance

This is one of those fragrances that really lifts you. It's light and fresh and whenever I wear it I feel like I could just close my eyes and float along on the smell. Surprisingly it lasts all day despite not being strong or heady.

Tips: Light enough to use as an everyday fragrance but delicious enough to be a 'treat' too. A good fragrance to use as a gift.

Love, love, love it!!!

I picked this up on a whim while coming through duty free a few months ago. I'd never heard the brand and after 45 minutes of olfactory overload of 'testers' I settled on this. I have to stop myself from using it every day because I'm speeding through the bottle. It has really grown on me. It's on the steeper side of my budget at $145 for 75ml but it's such a great fragrance I wouldn't hesitate to get it again. I can't smell it on myself once I put it on so I can't be sure of it's staying power. Given this I think it would be hard to put too much of this scent on because it's so lovely and light.

My favorite

I have been using this perfume for many years and it's still my favorite. It smells fresh, long lasting and is not over powering. It's a bit expensive for my pocket so I normally use it for special occasions, but it can be use for any time of the day or the year.

Fresh

I usually like a heavy fragrance but this one surprised me. I got given it for my birthday and initially I didn't like it, but after giving it a chance it won me over. It's fairly light and reminds me of pears. Its a great day fragrance.

Tips: You may need a top up later in the day as I found it didn't last as long as other fragrances.

Light and fresh for summer

I'm not one for florals, I like citrus and fresh scents and this is perfect. It's light, reminds me of the sea and is such a great day-time perfume, alternatively if you're going to a nighttime bbq this would be great too.

It lasts a long, long time too, especially at the elbows - is that weird?

Ahhhh Issy!

I LOVE this scent! Every time I wear it I get so many compliments. It is a perfect Summer scent and reminds me of Summer fun and romances. It's light and fresh and not too heavy and overpowering.
