Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey Review

I blind bought this online because of the rave reviews and it was a good price. I regretted it! In fact I sold it on because I couldn't wear it. My advice is don't blind buy this. It's not going to be everyone's cup of tea. Alot of people love this and when I smelt it I recognized it as a scent I had smelled before. For me, it just wasn't my thing, I was after something fresh but this just wasn't sweet or feminine enough for me . We all have different tastes though so when it comes to perfume, although reviews are helpful , you should always try it for yourself.

Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey is a perfume that is really special. I love the woody scent and have to stop myself from over applying as the scent is quite strong and lasting .The initial first spray makes me think it is a really light perfume so you need to apply a lot but after this initial waft of perfume dissipates I am left with a rich woody scent which does not need a lot to achieve a luxurious scent which lasts the day or night. I find this perfume really suits me and I feel really confident and special when I use this.

I've been using this for years and absolutely love this! This has been for ever been my go to fragrance for day time.

It always makes me feel uplifted with its fresh fragrance.

My Mum brought this for me for Christmas and it is a perfume I would have never considered, I'm more of a floral sweet kind of gal (think VS Bombshell, MOR Marshmallow), so this perfume was a complete change and surprise to my usual line of scent. At first I wasn't sure if it was suitable for me, but over time it has grown on me and I use it when needing a all day scent, it is quite strong, but pleasant and you do not need much so it's longevity is top quality. It is floral, with notes of woody scent, not on the sweet side and more sophisticated. I find it refreshing and it's definitely a perfume which I'll keep as part of my collection.

Strong spring floral. Watery rose and other florals. Lasts all day. Fresh. Easy to wear on warmer spring days, no need to top up during the day. Creates like a clean aura around you. Staple forever.

I hate the smell! It’s definitely strong, in fact over powering. It’s super expensive and a quality brand, however, I personally am not a smell of the scent. It smells like some sort of flower… maybe dandilions, which I’ve never liked anyways. Quality is amazing however

This used to be my signature scent, I would still use this fragrance, as to me this is a classic. Is quite oily so it really is great wearing throughout the day.

This is by far my favourite perfume. It has a beautiful exotic scent that really stands out.

I have repurchased this many times over the years and I always come back to it. It’s one of those unmistakable fragrances that makes a statement.

A little goes along way with this perfume and the scent lasts a long time which is fantastic.

I am currently out of this perfume which makes me sad, I really miss it.

The first spray is a refreshing splash of fragrance that mellows out to a wonderful lingering scent that has had people commenting on how wonderful it is it’s not my normal go too but it has opened my eyes to a more sweeter smell
