Very helpful Review 8  
Outsider in own assortment, but a good ...
... the fragrance I had bought myself out of curiosity when the price was temptingly low.

Previously of course looked here and despite the cautiously enthusiastic reviews, considered worth ordering.

First sprayer ... oh, something new. The fragrance does not crack male hard, rather restrained and moderately heavy. The intensity, or to express it in "volume", the noise is also restrained, not calm, but also not the heavy hammer.

Because of my "Spleen's" monthly to increase my collection of flacons / scents, my wife is rather reticent with compliments what my scents concern. But here she came all by herself and said, "smells very good". That means something! Normally I focus on fresh, aquatic, or on Tonka fragrances. This one's different, it's different. I don't want to lift him up on a gallery, just to say he doesn't have to hide.

It may be that the shelf life does not break any records, but the fragrance has its reason for existence. For me this is an everyday fragrance that goes down well both in my spare time and at work

Long evening, much impression
Nuit d'Issey is so similar to Layton by PdM, though older, that I suspect it served a (perhaps big) little bit as a template. Issey Miyake is yes for a long time and rightly one of the larger manufacturers on the market, on which also houses like Marly should orientate.
The fragrance was a Christmas gift to me. And thank God, alone I would probably not have come up with the idea to buy him.

He fits perfectly to the cold season and also to the short days - and as his name suggests - of course to the night :)
And there he also wants to arrive well. The super fresh and somewhat sweet start of soft citrus wakes you up first again, before you are attracted by the well-harmonizing spices. A powerful mix of pepper, wood and leather. Definitely very masculine. Very present, alerting, but not penetrating.
He smells to me like a long, extensively danced through night. Some things blurred, some inhibitions became secondary, some things disappeared the next day, but one thing is for sure: the scent remains, if not on your skin, then in your head. And not just in your own.

Some say the same thing about Layton! Here is the cheaper alternative with a little less, but satisfying H/S.

About Bangkok to Koh Phangan
This is my second review. I am far from having a clue. Still, I love the idea of what the architect must have been thinking. Now this is my interpretation:
The start of the scent is at least as exciting as your first night in Bangkok and the beginning of a journey. As soon as you arrive at the hostel, it's straight onto Khaosan Road. Someone accidentally runs into you and you have your grapefruit juice now on your linen shirt.

It's night, still warm but more bearable. Shops and restaurants line up and countless spices hang in the air, rising to your nose. Your olfactory memory makes you smile. It smells somehow always the same but still a little bit different every time. You will also store this smell and keep it for the cold days at home.

Tired, with a smile you fall into your sleep and already tomorrow you are on Koh Phangan. ...

You love these temples and can enjoy the atmosphere and silence for hours. Every temple smells like those incense sticks with patchouli and incense.

Late in the evening on the beach, you sit down with a group of Thais and Europeans at the campfire. All sorts of woods flame together and dance in the moonlight. You are deeply relaxed and holding on to every second, because you know everything is in motion and fleeting....

Arriving home, you hold your linen shirt in your hand. All the smells are preserved in the fabric and you are instantly at that night at the beach.

Fresh and elegant
Nuit d'Issey is an extremely fresh, young and urban incense, but without losing an iota of elegance, with a very marked masculinity, and an extraordinary cleaning. I really liked this interpretation of the incense, very far from the incenses that I usually consume, but also a very beautiful incense.

The Start is fresh, with a good citrus dose and a fruity touch, and of course, the incense and some leather are beginning to be noticed, but slightly still. Then, the incense begins to have more prominence, but here it is entertained by a leather bottom, with some wood and many spices, which give it a dark and respectable appearance, but keeping that vibe fresh and young. From here, the incense leave is wrapped in a mixture of tonka bean and patchouli, with a slight woody leave very deep. This final part, I would do something generic if not for the touch of incense, which brings the freshness and elegance necessary to not fall into the boring, anyway, it is an exquisite aroma that is reminiscent of others by the duo of tonka and patchouli, but that is still very pretty.

In terms of duration is fine, between 6 and 7 hours in skin, with a moderate projection from the beginning.

Night soul perfume and for cold or temperate climates. His dark heart of leather, spices and incense, which despite having that fresh vibe, is not a scent that I see diurnally, anyway, everyone will use it as they prefer, yes, I think that with the heat it would not be Very good ally.

When I say that this perfume is fresh, I mean that it is an easy to wear and very versatile incense, nothing opulent or loaded like other incense perfumes I know.

Smells like average guy at night - spicy, ambery, woody, faceless. There is no reason wasting time describing this one....

Nice dark flask holding an Issey dark juice or what can be called as noir under the Issey's tradition of fresh fragrances. Very nice though.
