This is a very basic scent. It starts off with some Isuzu and Lemon, followed by geranium and lily of the valley, dries down to a nice musk with some cedar. Sometimes it leans too feminine for me (since I really dont like florals in Mens fragrances). The florals stick around too long and sometimes the florals go sour on me which kinda smells like Decaying plant matter lol. This fragrance also doesn’t last long maybe 4-5 hours max. However it does project well for a edt, 2-3 feet for the first 90 min. After that it kinda becomes a skin scent. This can be a signature scent for the summer months. I would wear this if inly the floral notes were toned down and if it didn’t smell “sour” to me sometimes. 5/10

There are 3 complex perceptions difficult to explain that I perceive in this fragrance from the house of this great human being and survivor of the Hiroshima bomb, Iseey Miyake. 1) Super aquatic, I smell water literally, not marine, is like the fresh water in the vases to which have fallen some petals of roses. I like that feeling. 2) Lemon with a slightly "wild" and "strange" start. 3) I get mental images of Japanese rural life, it even reminds me of the "Last Samurai" movie, cascades surrounded by Bamboo, lotions and saunas vapors, with "shakuhachi" (Japanese flute) as a background music, which gives a sacred and peaceful feeling. Very rare indeed. The bottle is minimalist, beautiful and fairly spiky, only that the atomizer is of dubious quality, it is always ... MoreThere are 3 complex perceptions difficult to explain that I perceive in this fragrance from the house of this great human being and survivor of the Hiroshima bomb, Iseey Miyake. 1) Super aquatic, I smell water literally, not marine, is like the fresh water in the vases to which have fallen some petals of roses.

Very rare indeed. The bottle is minimalist, beautiful and fairly spiky, only that the atomizer is of dubious quality, it is always twisted and very difficult to cover. It is the fragrance that has generated more compliments, many, many and even people of little talk. So far all great, But ... It happened that I got a little "boring". However, i recognize that it is not a bad fragrance, great quality and a pleasant drying, only that I enjoy it more on someone else but me. Finally due my father-in-law is visiting us from my country, taking into account that this fragrance is perfect in summer (in DR is Summer all year) i gave him, now he is more than happy and grateful. Moderate sillage and acceptable longevity. It feels fresh and clean, perfect for the afternoon and casual use. If you find it at an affordable price, of course I can recommend it.

I was 15 years old 42 now when I got introduced to this parfume. I grew up in Russia and at that time most of the available parfumes were sweet, strong, overpowering since then I dont like parfumes with rose notes in them.When my aunt came for a visit from Israel she was wearing this parfume. It was so different. It was the scent of freshness, sophistication, summer and just a scent of a different country. She left me a bottle of this parfume and I cherished it like a treasure. Fast forward we left Russia, new doors were open and so were new scents. But no matter what parfumes I have had and I do have quite a selection I always have a bottle of this. You cant go wrong with this. Despite being so long on the market, it does not get old and not that many people are ... MoreI was 15 years old 42 now when I got introduced to this parfume.

One of the best fragrances ever created

This is by far one of the best fragrances ever created! It has proven to stand the test of time within the fragrance world. It is the perfect example why every man should have this wonderfully formulated and timeless fragrance in their collection forever. I have received tremendous compliments from women while wearing this fragrance. I've had women stop me that I didn't know and ask what I was wearing and requested permission to smell me closer or hug me to get the scent on them so they can continue to smell it for that day. It's a classic that's still relevant. I recommend this fragrance for any one that's new to fragrances, like fresh clean fragrances that can be worn all year or a fragrance to add in their collection that they don't have to think about using for ... MoreThis is by far one of the best fragrances ever created!

Underrated!

I think this fragrance deserves another mention! Not as ground breaking as the original was but it's still a solid fragrance! This definitely has the the original DNA but with a bit of a twist. It starts off fresh like the original with the Yuzu and citruses. Here's where the twist comes in! As it dries down it becomes dark and spicy with the nutmeg, cardamom and saffron with the nutmeg being more dominant. I don't get any cinnamon in this one. As it becomes close to my skin the incense, benzoin and amber become more noticeable with the papyrus and ambergris being more in the background. Performance is decent. I get 7 to 8 hours on my skin with a hour of projection. 👌🏼 L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme Intense by Issey Miyake is a Woody fragrance and was launched in 2007 ... MoreI think this fragrance deserves another mention!
