Since L'eau d'Issey is one of the mainstays of my collection, I also like to try its flankers.
I enjoy the summer editions, and I also like the floral and absolue versions - but what about Pure?

No long preamble - it appeals to me immediately.

I admit that I had to Google the ingredient Maritima, and the mentioned beach trident is unfamiliar to me.
However, the supposed similarity to coriander leaf takes me a little further.

I immediately liked the delicate powderiness of the fragrance, which is rather atypical for Miyake.
Nevertheless, the clarity of the scent remains intact.
It is aquatic with an alluring misty veil over it.
Could amber be responsible for that?
The floral notes of lily of the valley, jasmine, and rose are like freshly cut - straight from the garden.
The cashmeran adds a soft focus to it.
The wood is also green and fresh.

I find this combination of powdery softness and invigorating green very interesting and extremely successful - and it makes the fragrance subtly feminine.

For me, it is the next candidate for purchase.

That scent sounds lovely, I'll remember it. I know Maritima as Silverleaf too, it's a hardy little plant.

I have to try that one too. I really like the regular L'Eau D'Issey. Now I should definitely test out the flankers :)
