Innocence is the first thing that comes to mind when I sampled the latest scent by Issey Miyake. This scent strives to capture the scent of a drop of water on a woman’s skin, and while there are plenty of floral hints to the scent, the overall impression to me is simply acquatic and clean.
Top notes of this scent are rose water, Cyclamen accord, Peony, White Lily, and Carnation heart. Middle notes are florals, and base notes are woods, musk, Osmanthus, and Tuberose.
Issey Miyake L’Eau D’Issey Pure Review
The profile of an Issey Miyake bottle is instantly recognizeable. Simple, streamlined, and elegant. Generally a crystalline sphere symbolizing a drop of water tops any bottle of Issey Miyake fragrance, but for artistic purposes this detail was skipped. For L’Eau D’Issey Pure, the bottle is this rare and precious drop of water. This scent is ideal for the woman who generally doesn’t like to wear perfume at all. It’s very subtle, natural, and…pure!
Retail price is $108 for a 3.0 fl. oz. Eau de Parfum Spray, and $88 for a 1.6 fl. oz. Eau de Parfum Spray. Retailers include Nordstrom, Sephora, Macys, and Lord & Taylor.
