About this deal

Then it transitions into a slightly blue woody aromatic base, not overtly deodorant like, more so light and fresh. I have lived with this perfume for a long time and I couldn't objectively describe why it transcends, in me, the expectation and sensations provided by a mere fragrance, probably because it is an art that only the human spirit is capable of producing.

It is a quintessential citrus fragrance that has stood the test of time, remains timeless and though reformulation has changed it since it's inception, it is still wearable nearly 30 years after. As Issey Miyake's first perfume for men, L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme has established itself as a signature reference in the world of men's perfumery and aftershave. Other than that, it is a great, fresh, go-to scent that is mass appealing to a spectrum of generations - along the lines of Acqua di Gio and Coolwater.

Pretty meh longevity and pretty meh sillage, gotta douse myself in it to feel like other people can smell it.

So I just endured it for a while (it also got attention from women much the the chagrin of my new girlfriend, soon-to-be wife). Definitely a daytime scent and perfect for the office or casual wear, I'd say it's also great for holidays. Two editions in new flacons but with the same compositions were introduced in 2009 - L\'Eau d\'Issey Pour Homme and L\'Eau d\'Issey Pour Homme Intense. I like this on its own, but sometimes feel it's a little much, and maybe missing something in the base.It is best suited for casual occasions, like a Friday afternoon office party or a Sunday morning peek-a-boob with your mother-in-law. The latter part of the drydown is nice with a creamy sandalwood at about hour 3, but by then it's been a skin scent for an hour already. I remember asking a friend what he was wearing as it just smelled like a clean masculine scent you could wear everyday.

To those who know the early batches, if you spray too much then you will be treated with the cockroach smell haha but spray it conservatively and its so refreshing. This has quickly become my “dumb reach” scent and I’ve used nearly half of a 100ml bottle after only a few months.I didn't want to wear it but it was early in the relationship and I didn't want to seem ungrateful or, bring up the story about the first bottle and the first girlfriend as an excuse to refuse. The green and citrus blend so nicely with the florals and creates such a soft, clean, aromatic experience. Obviously, I'm not in the majority with this one, so I'm not sure I can accurately rate the fragrance.
