A spa experience in a bottle!
This is such a nice, relaxing scent. Calming and zen, perfect to wear when getting a message or pedicure or simply for some self care at home. It smells absolutely divine on rainy days. It's unlike anything I've ever smelled. It's fresh, aquatic, floral and creamy all in one. I feel it smells natural to me, like rain falling down on a field of fresh blooming flowers on a sunny day.

It has a subtle sweetness thanks to the lilac. I don't really notice the rose, perhaps it's blended really well with the rain and woody notes? The cedar and sandalwood in this blend are light and creamy, nothing what you'd expect when thinking of wood.

It lasts surprisingly long for an aquatic fragrance. I put it on before work today and can still smell it on my wrists 9 hours later! It projects around me but never did full the room. A nice work fragrance that doesn't offend and lasts for the entire shift.

The bottle is my least favourite thing about this perfume. It does look very nice, but it's a bit impractical and unfortunate. I prefer my perfumes standing up, they look nicer and take up less space. This just lays around clumsily and fathers a lot of dust within a short time.

favourite perfume in my collection!!
has a very unique smell and i love it!! tested it at every perfume store i went to and finally got it :) very very pleased with my purchase.. reminds me of the fresh wet smell after a rain or just the forest in general.. has a very nature like smell. somewhat aquatic, green, woody, and also has some floral scent to it but the overall vibe is still fresh

Lovely aquatic floral
Watery, clean, makes me feel fresh and put together. It really is perfect for a warm rainy day.

I tried this after being told it smells like dove soap - it is slightly soapy but I don't get dove. I put the test strip in my shirt pocket and after getting wafts throughout the day I was hooked. I love the aquatic note, I don't currently own anything else that gives the same impression.

I bought a full bottle and love putting this on after a shower, or as an office-safe but still interesting scent. Lasts all day on me, and I can smell it on clothes the following day. The projection isn't huge but that isn't something I look for in a fragrance anyway.

I do have to keep it in the box on my shelf as I don't have space for it to lie down, which is a shame as the bottle is pretty and unique.

Spring and Summer Rain
A Drop d'Issey Eau de Parfum Fraiche balances aquatic and watery notes with fresh lilac and rose. The effect is light and refreshing, with enough mood for a rainy Spring or Summer day. Very pleased with the scent and I would like to try the original and other flanker. Miyake's fragrances are an incredible price for good quality, original, and fresh scents.

Good mood freshness
When I smell the bottle, two reactions immediately follow: Firstly, a broad grin covers my face and secondly, I have to give in to the impulse and spray the perfume on myself.
My nose loves this fragrance - nothing is overpowering here, it just smells relaxing. Unfortunately, after a short time I can no longer detect any of the fragrance on me. However, my environment, which always speaks to me about the pleasant scent I like the smile it brings me and the good mood. And if I want to smell it myself for longer, I spray some of it on my clothes ;)
The "bottle" is very comfortable to hold. I loved the design at first, until the fragrance joined its playmates in the bathroom. It takes up too much space lying down, so it's now in an extra jar. (No, I didn't want to drive away any of his playmates)
For me, it is a good fragrance for every (working) day, especially when I need a pick-me-up. It rarely accompanies me in the evening.

Photorealistic rain on the pavement. Unpleasantly synthetic if oversprayed.

Better than the original - original leans air freshener-y. This is a crisp, wet floral.

Really beautiful and comforting rainy-day lilac! The rainy note is gorgeous and the lilac is so realistic to me. It smells like spring! :)

Reminds me of walking through the city after heavy rain. A bit masculine at first, soapy and comforting after a bit of time.

It smells like a fragile and delicate lilac that is sitting in the rain.
It is a comforting scent that hugs you for 5 hours then flees away.

Very accurate rain note in the opening that reveals soft lilies and roses, and in turn the rained on flowers settle on a base of sandalwood.
