A bottle will follow quite soon
I always knew Issey Miyake exists but I have not taken any interest in the brand, after smelling their perfumes in the airport or perfumery.

The Pour Homme EDT was very popular in the 90s, that I remember .. but still, it did not connected with me at all.

The new version, with the Vétiver created by Marie Salamagne changed all that .. after I sprayed a from a sample on my wrist and a big WOW followed.

Longevity is very good for this scent and the DNA of the perfume is quite special and reminds me of the 90s, having a calming and familiar effect.

With the amount of perfumes I have at home, a new addition is never a good idea .. but this one here, smells so good that a botte will surely follow.

I hope you will enjoy my video.

After sampling - got a bottle!
This fragrance is like taking a walk through a lush, green forest on a crisp, sunny day. It feels fresh and natural, just like the earth after a light rain. The scent is clean and invigorating, like a cool breeze that instantly lifts your spirits.

It's not overpowering but has a subtle, refined quality that makes it suitable for everyday wear. The vetiver note adds a touch of sophistication, making it perfect for both casual and formal occasions.

What I really love about this fragrance is its longevity. It lasts all day, so you don't have to worry about reapplying. And it's versatile - you can wear it to the office, on a date, or even to a special event.

In summary, this fragrance is a breath of fresh air in a bottle. It's clean, green, and sophisticated, making it a fantastic addition to any fragrance collection. Whether you're a fan of vetiver or just looking for a versatile, long-lasting scent, this one is definitely worth trying.

It's just two-cents synthetic crap
It resembles what it's supposed to resemble, but questionably synthetic. I think it's hard to incorporate these kinds of scents into a perfume that will end up being spritzed on your body, so it's rather a surprise to have a lavender or wood scent to use, but I won't use it.

It's far too light to be used and if it's used extensively, the smell isn't the same anymore.

Conditioning successful
If it says vetiver on it, then the Leimbacher is testing or buying. I'm easy to see through. And certainly not just me. There's a reason why vetiver is now a household name even for casual perfume fans and why there are so many flankers/releases on the subject. So what does Issey Miyaki make of the trend? Try it, buy it or forget it? The bottle with the wooden cap makes an impression and matches the fragrance head...

Anyone familiar with Issey Miyake men's fragrances will hardly be surprised here. Yuzu fizzes, lemon tingles, a summery green could hardly be more Asian, light and elegant. Ozone and clean, also freshly showered, but much nicer than today's shower gel trend. But the name shouldn't deceive, so everything seems a pleasurable touch darker, woodier and more vetivery. Certainly also a bit more masculine. But I know a lot of women who really like the Miyake men's DNA anyway, even on their own skin, so they will certainly be able to cope with a touch more vetiver and astringency. But don't get me wrong: it's still a Miyake, it could clearly pass as a summer fragrance with other companies. Like an elegant wardrobe drawer full of lemon variations, musk on the airy trail of cherry blossoms, like a celebrity dentist in front of a fresh spring sunrise on Fujijama.

Flacon: woody and pretty
Sillage: for wearers, not the whole company
Longevity: 3-5 hours is just about ok.

Conclusion: solid vetiver infusion to the usual Miyake DNA - gives the summery fizz a good portion of wood in front of the noble hut!

Lemon infusion in your favorite sauna
That's the first thought that comes to mind and I can't get rid of it: sauna.

I always want to wear this fragrance when I stroll home, knocked out after training and soaked by the heat of the sweat chamber.
Deepest relaxation and carefreeness envelop the wearer. The woody vetiver is like a cozy hammock and the ginger is the fresh breeze on a summer evening.

Despite its clearly woody nature, the fragrance is very fresh and surprisingly light.
Its citrusy notes, mixed with the sage, almost place it in the gourmand caste,
but its greenish woodiness counteracts this wonderfully and makes this work appear very balanced and wearable for many occasions without compromise.

Hope this will resurect the Issey Miyake fragrance direction from the last 10 years, wich was sadly on more than down side....

Vetiver adds depth that is missing from L'Eau d'Issey. Not a must have but a more sophisticated alternative to the original

Someone please stop the flanker madness. It's 2023. Uncontrolled vetiver drydown mixed with amberwoods. Sad.

A subtle and understated but mature and refined masculine scent with a recognisable eau d’Issey backbone. Wonderful and addictive.

Retro in a bottle. Evoking Prada's yesterday rather than Issey Miyake's.

Think more ginger than vetiver, invigorating and simple. Bonus tip, rub some coconut oil into the wooden cap with your hands to get it smoother.

An unsettling debut, I hardly recognize the progenitor. Soapy vetiver has replaced citrus. Then the hot spices reappear, and DNA is back.

I get a close resemblance to the original. There isn't a lot of vetiver. It's essentially a muted version of the original.

Oh yes it's definitely a sauna. I couldn't pin point what exactly it is, but it's similar to a sauna. Not how I like my vetivers though.
