Issey Miyake L'eau D'issey Pour Homme IGO 80ml Eau De Toilette Bottle, 20ml Cap To Go for Him

L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme by Issey Miyake is a Woody Aquatic fragrance for men, launched in 1994 and created by master perfumer Jacques Cavallier. Widely regarded as one of the most influential men's fragrances of all time, it combines vibrant citrus freshness, aquatic accords, aromatic spices, and warm woods to create a scent that feels timeless, elegant, and effortlessly masculine.

Inspired by the purity of water, traditional Japanese bathing rituals, and the distinctive aroma of yuzu, a prized Japanese citrus fruit, L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme was designed as a universal fragrance suitable for any occasion. Fresh yet sophisticated, it perfectly balances serenity and energy.

The fragrance opens with a vibrant blend of calone, yuzu, tarragon, mandarin orange, cypress, coriander, lemon, bergamot, sage, and lemon verbena. The yuzu provides a distinctive sparkling citrus freshness, while aromatic herbs and aquatic calone create the fragrance’s signature clean and invigorating opening.

At the heart, notes of blue lotus, lily-of-the-valley, saffron, bourbon geranium, Ceylon cinnamon, mignonette, and nutmeg create a refined aromatic-spicy accord. The floral notes add elegance and freshness, while saffron, cinnamon, and nutmeg introduce warmth and complexity that give the fragrance its sophisticated character.

As the scent settles, rich notes of tobacco, amber, cedar, sandalwood, musk, and Tahitian vetiver create a warm and masculine finish. The woods and vetiver provide depth and longevity, while tobacco and amber add subtle warmth and sensuality that linger beautifully on the skin.

L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme is ideal for men who appreciate fresh woody aquatic fragrances with timeless elegance and exceptional versatility. Clean, refined, and highly wearable, it works beautifully for office wear, formal occasions, casual settings, and year-round use.

The iconic bottle design reflects the inspiration of flowing waterfalls, featuring a slender transparent glass silhouette topped with a minimalist grey cap that has become instantly recognisable in the world of perfumery.

How to Apply:
