There are fragrances that you find so extraordinarily good that you never wear them. Too special, too loud, not suitable for work. And then there are those like this one.
Admittedly, I didn't know this classic at all at first sniff. High expectations were accordingly disappointed. What? Is that it? Smells fresh-citrusy - and what else? But with the warm days, I learned to appreciate this classic, because it really works anytime. Whether for leisure, office, or university, it will always be fresh and clean. No one will wrinkle their nose. Well, as a perfume connoisseur, you certainly won't be noticed with this milky glass water, but I don't want that at all! Usually, you just want to get through the tropical temperatures feeling fresh and clean, and this fragrance does that wonderfully.
L'Eau d'Issey is indeed one of those fragrances that you can apply without even thinking for a second. The longevity on my skin isn't particularly good, but thanks to the low price, that's not a big deal. On the contrary: Maybe my psyche is playing tricks on me, but even at room temperature in summer, the spray feels somehow fresher and cooler than other freshies from my collection. I love to spray more!
The bottle is, as is typical for Issey, a little show-off. The cap is huge. Not really my style, but the glass bottle impresses with its milky glass. As always with Issey, I'm amazed at how good the sprayers are compared to more expensive fragrances from Chanel & Co.
All in all, a fragrance that should not be missing from my collection in the future.
