Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey Review

This is one of my favourite scents and am already on my third bottle. This lasts long on my body and have always received compliments, even from strangers in a lift or at a cafe. My husband absolutely loves this scent on me and can recognise the smell whenever I wear it on. :)

I have one other favorite besides this fragrance but I rate it highly up there with my best, Its a fresh long lasting fragrance with a subtle sweet scent that is to die for. I was given half of a 75 ml botlle as my friend received a new bottle for her birthday, it didnt last me long and I eventually ended up with a whole bottle for my birthday . This is a must have ladies for the lovers of fresh breezey subtly sweet scents...

I absolutely love this scent. It is one of my favorite perfumes, it is just heavenly. It last for ages and you only need a couple sprays and your good to go, a definite must have. It has a very refreshing, light and floral feel to it. I will forever repurchase this product. It is perfect for events and outing i wouldn't use it as and every day perfume as quiet pricey, but hey if you can afford it, than by all means spray away.

I have had the great joy of purchasing this whilst travelling through duty free, Its subtle notes leaves a fresh all over scent that certainly turns heads! several variances of this perfume make it a stand out pleaser, meaning its perfect for both night and day functions, without overpowering the nose. Its bottle sizes make a great travel perfume, and its sleek design makes it a beautiful addition to any counter. as further mentioned its scent is uplifting, woody and fresh. its price certainly reflects quality in this product,

I got this perfume in a sample set from Farmers, variations of which they do every year around Christmas. The set comes with 10 sample sized perfumes and a voucher to redeem for one of the perfumes in a full size (usually 30ml). I bought this to get out of my comfort zone somewhat with perfume as I rotate between two favourites, one of which was included in the set. I have in the past been pleasantly surprised by perfumes when I have put looks aside (I always judge a perfume by the bottle, bad I know), so I set about testing each sample.

Each sample is from 0.8 -1.0 ml, which I found enough for about a week of wear. I’m quite picky about what I do and don’t like, and first impressions are important for a perfume!

Unfortunately I am not a fan of this scent. While not unpleasant, it reminds me of a body spray like Impulse, which is not what I look for when purchasing a luxury fragrance. It was not sickly sweet, just quite fresh smelling and I prefer a more statement scent. It was subtle, clean and astringent but somehow still a little cloying. I don't get floral from this but I do get aqautic - it smells clean and fresh but not sophisticated or sexy enough for me to buy a full size. I'd liken it to the smell of clean sheets - which I am not a fan of.

i first smelt this perfume when i was a teen and ever since its been a pick of mine. i dont wear it daily as i like it to last so i wear it more when i head out. that way i can enjoy it more & more and i havent got sick of it yet. It has a lovely feminine fragrance which often get compliments.

I am in love with this perfume- it truly is pure heaven to me. I was given a bottle after my father came back from France and have not looked back since. My husband loves it! I do keep it for special occasions though because it isn't cheap.

I smelt this a few months ago in a duty free store. I usually go for very sweet sickly scents. this however won me over as it is so fresh and unique. to me this smells like freesias which is my ultimate favorite flower and reflects its natural beauty

This fragrance is so cool and refreshing, light as a breeze, it has a beautiful floral scent with a watermelon like after glow. It reminds me of freshly washed linen, cool summer mornings and the promise of good things to come, a calming and breathtaking scent.

When I think about elegance in a bottle I immediately think about Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey.

The bottle is a frosted tower. It isn't over the top with it's packaging because the perfume itself speaks volumes.

The scent reminds me of spring. I think about new beginnings, the spring morning dew, a meadow in the midst of giant mountains. I think about all that is good in the world. It's fair to say when I wear this perfume I go to my happy place.

It is a rosy scent with a very, very subtle earthy tone. Though the perfume itself isn't subtle at all. The perfume will stay on you for hours so you hardly need to touch up.

As it is pricey (and worth it) I only wear it on special occasions, so that I can prolong the life of my bottle.
