About this deal
The performance is naturally toned down as so delicate a composition would suggest, so adjust expectations. Personally I'd love some more jasmine in it, it would probably make it a bit more night-wearable as well.
It develops nicely and it will be lovely on a hot day - it's not overbearing at all, it creates a soft cloud of fragrance.Using his favorite work tool, the ballpoint pen, he offers a subtle and colorful design, a mix between shimmering plants and a sketch of a desert island. I love the original L'Eau d'Issey (both the male and the female version) and had one of the summer flankers about 20 years ago, and I was excited to try this one. Top notes are Watery Notes, Bergamot and Lemon; middle notes are Eucalyptus, Jasmine and Basil; base notes are Cypress, Pine, Balsam Fir and Cedar. The base is woodier, I can smell the pine/cypress elements, but the basil from the mid and the aquatic notes/ bergamot from the opening are still there.
Issey Miyake launched L’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme Summer Eau de Toilette in 2018 as an aromatic fruity fragrance for men. The fragrance lasts well but do not expect something bold, this is more a subtle summer fragrance which may explain why some people felt it did not last - i felt is lasts all day but just subtle. I love both the Calabrian bergamot and neroli, but I couldn’t tell them apart until the second wear when I did smell neroli a tiny bit.
