    This is super watery and sweet enough that if you overdose, you get a huge headache. It reminds me so much of Azuki bean paste, in a sweet, comforting, powdery and nostalgic way. Anyone who likes mochi and anko will know what I mean. Incredible lasting power, potent enough that one spray will last all day.

    Absolutely horrific stuff. The bottle is lovely but was a blind buy fail.

    It’s a nice floral/aquatic scent, light and fresh on me. It smells a bit too similar to IM Absolue, though. I like it but it’s not so memorable

    A little goes a long way and gets compliments from anyone who can smell it. It is a discreet feminine scent that can be worn in any occasion. The scent does not change even if u sweat a lot and it clings beautifully on my skin even after a bath. A timeless classic for a modern, classy, confident woman.

    Such a delightfully clean, fresh, aquatic fragrance. Reminds me of Ralph Lauren’s Romance. It’s distinct, soapy, creamy, white, summery. Great longevity too. This fragrance has always been in the background for me, but today I finally purchased a bottle. No regrets. It’s divine. Much prefer it to the EDT version and I don’t know why people say it reminds them of Pure. The two fragrances are nothing like each other.

    Even so it is a nice fragrance, made 2006 from natural ingredients, not my story i dont like aquatics.
    But yes it is a good made aquatic.

    I love this fragrance. It’s modern, aquatic, floral, urban, and almost creamy with a hint of woods. It’s not sweet and I don’t find this particularly feminine. If I had no previous associations with this perfume I’d wear it all the time. However this was the signature of my narcissistic mother and a high school frenemy and every time I attempt to wear it those memories come back. So sad. Maybe once I get over them I’ll be able to wear this again.

    This is a lovely scent, clean and delicate. I feel like I smelled it a thousand times before, because it seems all the drugstore companies created various fragranced products with this smell. However, the original is way more elegant and less synthetic that the copies. I only have a sample, but I plan on buying it full size someday

    Mostly watery / ozonic background notes, floral: freesia and rose. Durability pretty good. But I detect this smell like the strong smell of laundry powder or like wet grass. This lilly has such an artificial tone. And too dominant, and lotus such a typical water flower. There is also a calone, it is some smell imitating real watermelon. All water flowers, fruits etc ..
    Nothing woody in here, not my type of scent.

    I was given this as a gift in 2001. And, I must say, it was not exactly welcome. The cedar in this is completely overwhelming. I set to sneezing immediately, and then broke out in a rash. Did I mention I’m allergic to cedar (and juniper and cypress… the whole family)? I felt sorry for the guy… he spent SO much money on this! But, unfortunately, it was a definite no-go, for me.

    It’s so much deeper scent than the EDT. I love both of them. This one is quite warm, almost mainly scent because of the Musk. Don’t overdo on this one as it has a great staying power. Perfect for rainy days, or just plain winter.

  12. :

    its a bamboo-y, citrusy, sugarcaney concoction, with a bit of aquatic thrown into the mix.
    it’s honestly a brilliant fragrance… and i find it significantly better than the EDT

  13. :

    I like this one. I had completely forgotten about it maybe because it belongs to a category of fragrances which I am not particularly fond of. I am not surprised that it is considered a classic, because it does definitely have something very special from my viewpoint. It is very distinctive, never smelled any other fragrance which strongly resembles this one. It has a bitter creamy twist which I find disturbing and even addictive. Great fragrance from my viewpoint..

    I have received it as a present for my birthday. I have had the Summer 2015 version od EDP first, and I loved it, so I thought original EDP can only be better Nope. I like it, but it misses the watery, aquatic and breezy vibe. It’s packed with some flowers and the dry down is nauseating. It lacks projection, but it’s strong close to the body. Disappointed.

    My mother often complains that strong perfumes make her sneeze, and this usually makes me roll my eyes. This one has me sniffing, agreeing with her, and reaching for the antihistamine. I don’t know what it is about the aquatic family that so disagrees with me, but it’s just as well that they don’t suit me in the least. I’ll be sticking with florals, fruits, aldehydes, animalic, and gourmands from this day forth!
    …. I need a shower.

    cool, fresh, elegant, subtle and classy – a perfect every day scent for Spring and Summer and a timeless classic

  17. :

    This is a top fragrance in aquatic fragrances. I don’t know this one and the other one’s from this line well enough, to say what’s the difference between the EDP and EDT version.
    They are quite similar in my opinion.
    I sense fresh, light floral scent and nothing else from it.
    Lotus and lily are the most dominant notes. It reminds me of pure, cold water. Very natural smelling. Could easily be a signature scent.
    I think it’s made for a modest and elegant woman. I have to keep it in mind for later life.

    My favorite women’s perfume, which was also my mother’s signature scent. Now it’s mine. Te desidero, et te amo, mom

  19. :

    5 out of 5

    I tried a sample of it and fell in love with the scent. When I received the bottle and first putted it on for a day, people kept saying the smell was really strong and kind of disturbing. It gave me headache throughout the day and I kept trying to wash it off but it is very difficult to get rid of it.

  20. :

    This one is a classic. No matter the year/season/occasion, I need to have a backup of this one at all times.
    My no.1 perfume.
    You know that special perfume who is the only one you can give a perfect score of 10/10? Well, this is my 10/10.
    Thank you Issey Miyake for this masterpiece scent who manages to lift me up whenever I need it.

  21. :

    5 out of 5

    I’ve been wearing it all day, since 8am when I sprayed my wrist several times. Around 9am, I sprayed my cleavage twice.
    It is 10 pm, nighttime, and all day this fragrance wafted to my nose.
    No idea if it radiated much but a man followed me around Target a bit while I was out shopping, he was very handsome/my age, so it wasn’t creepy 🙂
    The smell has brought joy to me all day.
    I haven’t worn this for at least a year, but I need to bring it back as a mainstay.

  22. :

    Beautiful sent, top notes are light fresh floral, middle notes are of lotus, then the dry down lingers on the skin and I can still smell the lotus. It lingers on the skin for at least 6 hours with the body cream much longer. I’m a fan of this one.

  23. :

    I have a weird relationship with this fragrance. I generally love the freshness at first spray- like love. Then after about 20 minutes it starts aggravating me and I feel like I’m wearing L’eau d’Febreeze.
    I prefer my fresh fragrances to bloom or trail into something warmer and this one just doesn’t.

  24. :

    5 out of 5

    This is a razor sharp scent out of the bottle. (to my nose) it is pungent while at the same time bright in scent.
    The dry down doesn’t change the scent for me – just the intensity.
    I would put this on my top shelf of most used perfumes, although is is becoming more and more common. (For people who fear commonality)

  25. :

    5 out of 5

    This is also my fav. Fragrance. This smell like sun and earth, wind and air. Yes, the smell of freedom. Is surplisingly durable. Friends compliment, projection is very ok. Highly recommend, because this is masterpiece!!! I love forever. Sorry my poor english.

  26. :

    My absolute favorite.. such a gorgeous smell.. there’s nothing to match this one.. a MUST HAVE.. i just finished my bottle and will order another one soon.. the perfume i have ‘repeat bought’ the maximum number of times!!!! smells so fresh it instantly uplifts your mood!!!

  27. :

    This is a terrific summer fragrance! It’s present on the skin throughout most of the day and stays on clothing until the next wash. Not sure why there’s so much hate for this one, as it is a very very popular fragrance in southern u.s. There’s lots of things to like about it- longevity, silage and composition are all there. However, it certainly does remind me of escape which I was never a fan of (had a friend that wore escape back in high school). The rose note takes center stage when first applied on my skin which I love, then it turns into a relatively sharp melon/ freesia scent. Very fresh and juicy without being overly sweet. You will definitely have to like melon to enjoy this one.

  28. :

    Lily often does not smell well on my skin and this time it hasn’t been different. Additionally, ozonic notes magnify coolness of this fragrance. All in all, definitely not for me.
    Update: I’ve tried it once more and nothing has changed. It’s so sultry!

    I was not sure whether the L’eau d’Issey I reviewed before was the eau de toilette or the eau de parfum, so I requested a sample of this one during my last stop-over at Sephora. Now, after taking a gander at this house’s line-up, I recognize that Issey Miyake is deeply involved in flanker madness, perhaps even a leader in the industry. This must be some sort of record for number of flankers on a single perfume.
    The original L’eau d’Issey eau de toilette was launched way back in 1992, a year after Calvin Klein Escape, which strikes me as a near facsimile. This 2006 eau de parfum launch does not strike me as the same fragrance. It is less sweet and appears to be notably melon-free (not melon-less!) and more floral than the original. It’s still aquatic, with a big blast of calone now listed explicitly in the note pyramid (since by now everyone brags about their aromachemicals, rather than covering them with metaphors), but the rest of the composition seems to be pared down and less fruity. Lots of abstract florality, including some rendition of lily of the valley, and something like the scent of spray starch. Not that I’ve smelled that product in decades, but there is definitely something along those lines in this composition.
    I’m not much for aquatic fragrances, which often make me feel seasick (logically enough), so L’eau d’Issey eau de parfum is not for me. I have a generous sample of this juice, but I’m afraid that I’ll develop a headache if I put any more on. Maybe I’ll try the rest on another occasion. I do think that it smells less dated than the eau de toilette, which makes sense, since it was launched in 2006, not in 1992.
    Uh-oh, I feel a headache on the horizon… I was going to review a couple of the flankers, but now I see that I’d better wait until later. Time for a bath right now.

    I have the edp and the edt of this and find them very different. The edp is deep, rich and not to me anyway, at all watery or ozonic. I much prefer it but it’s heaviness is best for cooler weather. The edt is perfect for hot days and is refreshing.
    One spray of the edp on my arm at 10pm was still potent the next morning at 10am and at arms length.
    In ways, the edp reminds me of diorissimo.
    It’s gorgoeus and I crave that smell.

    Perfect office scent. Remidns me of the blue sea and crisp white colour.

  32. :

    4 out of 5

    When i first smelled this on my friend i had to go buy some. its beautiful initally. then has a weird dry down scent that made me have a headache. It also smells EXACTLY like Elizabeth Arden “sunflowers”. but thats just me.

  33. :

    4 out of 5

    Floral with aquatic quality and overall clean. It reminds me of Laila in structure. There’s an after-sweetness that reminds me of bubblegum, melon, or dragonfruit. The perfume makes me think of a garden in a botanical research center and I would love to sample this in person rather than from a magazine sample.

  34. :

    3 out of 5

    refreshing in a glamorous way!! yes, it’s aquatic, watery, fresh, etc… whatever u call it, but it has layers of very uplifting notes that make me happy, ever-changing & sometimes overlapping flowery notes, citrusy notes & even some fruits like melons -maybe, it’s a must-have and lasts long enough to enjoy it

  35. :

    5 out of 5

    For the longest time I’ve been looking for a scent that was clean but no reminiscent of that ‘clean’ alcohol scent. This is what I wear when I want to be non offensive and have something simple. It’s certainly not simple, the way it fades to a musky scent later on in the day. However, I find it something interesting and complex without being too busy with too many heavy notes. I’ve always been partial to aquatic perfumes, and this one is probably going to be a staple for me for the forceable future.

  36. :

    I just received this in a swap and I wanted to add a BIG NOTE because people neglect to do this! (I did!)
    TIP: If you see a note that is pictured as a CHEMICAL COMPOUND it is very helpful to look it up in fragrantica’s note database to see what it represents! I’ve found more often than not those notes are very dominant! And that is the case here:
    So far (3 hrs in) I’ve gotten lots of freesia and melon! I was surprised since I didn’t remember seeing ‘melon’ as a note. Alas, ‘Calone’, the chemical compound note herein, in actually described as a “synthetic note composed to reproduce the light, airy and aqueous feel of watermelon/melon”!
    Who woulda thunk? 🙂
    Anyway this is a very melon-y water floral frangrace. Good sillage so far and it is well blended to my nose; though melon isn’t something I lean towards it is pretty and sweet and an uplifting fragrance.

  37. :

    It makes me feel carsick for some reason. Is it the ozone…? Maybe too aquatic…? Could it be the taffy-like melon…??
    This is the gigantic fluffy snuggly beanbag-sized white teddy bear that you like the idea of having, but once you actually have it, it ominously fills the room and tries to strangle you at a distance.
    Not for me.

    Revision.
    I think my newly purchase bottle of EDP spent too many hours in store lighting. It evaporates almost immediately, and dries down to a musk, yes musk oh so quickly. it is nothing like I remember from 20 years ago. This must have been reformulated, or I have a spoiled product?
    I cant believe how many sprays it took to satisfy myself and convince my nostrils I was actually wearing a fragrance. Disappointing to say the least. The fragrance was gone within an hour of application. Perhaps it’s me? Maybe it’s the bottle? I forked out 3 times what I would usually these day’s as I have buried my ostentatious 80’s with that decade, for this fragrance. Pity.
    I totally LOVE these kind of fragrances, Melony, ozonic scents have a special place in my mind and soul.
    There used to be nothing like it when it was introduced. Nothing until ‘Escape’ and ‘Sunflowers’ which incidentally are created by the same NOSE, hit the market. Which off course I have loved dearly too. I just may have fallen out of love with L’Eau Issey. SOB Sob.

  39. :

    ok when i first sprayed it the first thing i thought was urine. like…. i don’t want to put anybody off but that was what i THOUGHT. but then the the white florals started coming out. i dont know why but white florals and roses smell very similar to me so when i say white florals i could be meaning roses too. it’s a good scent, i like it. kind of smells like what you would imagine spring to smell like. fresh. kind of wet grassy. i’d wear it day or night. mostly day though. in a park. kind of smells like a bush of flowers next to fresh cut grass. love it!! kinda soapy too.

  40. :

    5 out of 5

    I sprayed this on my wrist last night at Sephora. It’s a very fresh, clean aquatic scent. Kind of in the cool water catergory but it did have a smidge of Escape to it, but less woodsy and more fresh. It wasn’t a bad perfume, it wasn’t a great perfume. It was just ok for me. There are others I want way before this one. Also, the staying power for me was a little over 2 hours and that was it. Somewhat dissappointed, but I will try it again after I acquire some faves that I really want first.

  41. :

    5 out of 5

    Fresh and very feminine scent, uncovering its layers while you wear it.

  42. :

    4 out of 5

    Delightfully feminine, with a pleasant sillage and great staying power. Not a boring floral. Will buy again when my bottle is over.

  43. :

    4 out of 5

    This one Im suprised I love so much, considering im not a serious floral girl. I just purchased my second bottle though, because it has a noticable woodsy smell that reminds me of being in South Lake Tahoe, or in a country log cabin in spring time. Love love love how this makes me feel.

  44. :

    5 out of 5

    I managed to score a 50 mill bottle Eau De Parfum with body wash and lotion for 65. Aus Dollaroozies.
    I have always had a Issey Miyake in my coiffret. Always ask friends who travel to get me a bottle. I love it. Obviously I’m a melon. Melon lover that is. I note the same nose also created Escape and Sunflowers which I also have. This scent in my view or schnooz that is. Is unique. Love the way it smells on me. Viva la Issey.

  45. :

    5 out of 5

    a classic, and I smell it on the streets often. I absolutely hate it though, just not my thing. I think scent are so personal. It doesn’t smell ‘offensive’ though when people wear it. I just don’t like it strongly.

  46. :

    4 out of 5

    I absolutely love this scent: a beautiful, aquatic, delicate floral where the lily really shines.
    Interestingly, I cannot stand the EDT – it has a sour, artificial note on my skin – but the EDP is divine.

  47. :

    4 out of 5

    Love it!! It’s very strong on me though, much stronger than the EDT but when applied with a light hand this is one of my faves.

  48. :

    4 out of 5

    Loved this when it came out but upon someone I know reapplying it to see if it would work again – it hasn’t invoked the same magic.
    Not sure why it didn’t seem so good, I think perhaps it seems too sweet, it gave us a headache. Perhaps the composition is too much or it isn’t so groundbreaking. But anyhow, she (and I) are over it. I feel the same about the male version of this too.

  49. :

    4 out of 5

    Very fresh, crisp, cool and clean definitely.
    The opening is a cloud of bright, dazzling, sparkling white. Dominated by Juicy, sweet, fresh melon (calone) and Freesia.
    evokes marine mineral freshness, water and aquatic plants, green at some edges, fresh sweet white flowers, a hint of spice, and warm floral musk. Smells like a cloudy day at the wharf.
    Really safe, inoffensive. Easy to wear on most occasions.
    However It can also be really synthetic smelling. Like commercial white laundry musk. Calone also smells like fresh caught seafood. In particular, raw oysters. If you think about the sexual connotations relating to oysters, it’s also a dirty /naughty secret of this perfume.

  50. :

    Super clear and clean…
    Remember Escape but weak.

  51. :

    4 out of 5

    I don’t know why but I tried on the scent today and it smells like urine on me. I was expecting something fresh and floral but it just wasn’t like that on my skin. I’m deceived

  52. :

    3 out of 5

    A cool floral blend of lotus, freesia and lily. This smells light and almost watery, and is quite relaxing. This is a subtle and calming scent when not overapplied. Lasts a very long time for such a light scent.

  53. :

    4 out of 5

    I got this one as a gift and I loved it since day one. It was my first perfume and it took me a long time to understand what it was all about. A lot of people around me don’t appreciate it, but then a lot of people don’t know much about perfumes 😛

  54. :

    5 out of 5

    One of my signature scents, I’ve owned it twice. Wore it the other day and my other half was like….this is what you used to wear when we first met….never knew he liked it on me so much. On this second bottle, I was a little leary because it seemed different to my nose when I started back wearing it. However, I’m noticing liking it more on me in this fall weather…Not sure, but I guess I will keep it in my stash.

  55. :

    5 out of 5

    As soon as spring breaks I reach for this perfume. It’s so fresh, so beautiful, so clean and so very classy! It’s a beautiful spring/summer scent. The lotus flower definitely dominates but as the fragrance wears I can definitely smell lily, carnation and cedar giving it depth and character. I don’t get any musk in this fragrance. It’s very, very aquatic. Perfect bridal scent. It’s innocence and femininity in liquid form.

  56. :

    5 out of 5

    One of my favourite scents- so wet, so fresh – reminds me of a lush garden after a good rain drenching, wet sandalwood and lilies galore, but somehow a very cool (as in cold, not Chloe Sevigny) scent, unique in its formulation, beautiful…
    Had to edit this today after reading so many bad reviews of Issey – why oh why are there so many haters of the Issey?! I really don’t get it – it seems that this one reacts really badly with an awful lot of people’s skin chemistries. Interesting but will never put me off. Lilies and rain, bottled, is my idea of heaven…

  57. :

    5 out of 5

    Reminds me of a cold, clear lake somewhere in high mountains. Lotus adds that freshness, is very comfortable and lightweight, but just too weak. It would be perfect for meditation, so I always imagined that smell of Japanses fragrance should be just like L’eau d’Issey. Clear and almost transparent, like drops of dew which only lasts a minute showing all the beauty of a passing moment. So mystical and elusive.

    Oh dear! Issey Miyake is a designer that started at givenchy! l`eau d` Issey (issey`s water, or an intended pun- Odissey~) is the original aquatic scent.
    this is popular not due it`s commercialisation!
    unlike other scents that started gaining popularity after being featured in movies, tv series or music videos this one gained its loyalty through quality and the attraction of the masses when they recognized a really good perfume.
    it`s good not because it`s niche, quirky or so pompous you can`t stand it! it`s not a pretentious scent, one that almost makes you say you hate it but you still wear it because it`s the vogue. no,no…
    l`eau has great longevity- 10 hours at least~
    it also has good projection, a bit of a cold one, but doesn`t make the others in a room start to sneeze! it`s a medium projection which increases with the number of sprays,but i think it`s sufficient to spray once on the pulse points in order to get an idea of what the others will smell on you.
    issey miyake as a scent is very… japanese. I absolutely back off upon calling this one oriental. japan, as you may hav noticed, exceeded it`s traditional scene after being under US occupation. japan is pretty much a westernised country with a reality of its own and a love of famous brands such as gucci and LV. Imagine that Issey Miyake was very much attracted by the western culture and lived and worked in France.this scent dosen`t yell at you- hey, I`m oriental! that is just stupid and simplistic.
    or… to even compare ming shu with issey miyake! i mean, go on, but ming shu has nothing of the complexity attached to l`eau. it barely lasts, but yes, it tries to copy it, and it makes me smile!
    first of all, issey miyake is a very complex fragrance. it`s comprised of a LOT of ingredients~
    watery and citrusy~ lotus, white lily, peony, rose, green tea, lime, and probabily algae.
    woodsy- wet sandalwood
    and musk seeds- which have the sweet, flowery and heavy fragrance of the musk but a bit on the drydown. a great alternative to the animal musk!!!
    and add something synthetic to it and voila!
    A scent that`s been envied by many.
    with these and probably a few dozens of other ingredients, l`eau is evolving in layers, each and every one with a strength of its own.
    created in 1992, L`eau through its bottle resembles a lighthouse, or who knows, maybe the ivory feminine shape itself- longiline and thin, not curvy.
    it`s sharpness and cleanliness – the aquatic aura- has been copied to an extent by many other brands. it just has something very desirable, but none other had realized enough to be remembered.
    this scent isn`t simple, though it`s not murky and difficult like others. it gives you tranquility and awareness. It balances very well the asian belief of detachment from the material world yet adds the sense of pragmatism common to the europeans. one is aware and intelligent without being less imaginative and dreamy!
    take a look at the designer`s creations. they all resemble towers in some way or another… maybe it`s an influence from the eiffel tower? as hated as it was, the eiffel tower has become a symbol of paris.
    oh my, but I`m rambling.
    this is by far the scent I like to keep among favorites. and I am happy it is so popular, still!

    It’s funny- I don’t remember this purfume being popular in the 90’s. All I remember is CK One, The Body Shop’s Fuzzy Peach and Gap’s Grass! Of all things, it reminds me of my best friend’s mother from my very early childhood, which was very much before this was released. Her room always smelled fresh and clean and floral, which is what this reminds me of. I’ve worn in for years and will keep doing so as it’s a great daytime purfume that has never garnered a complaint from anyone to me.
    I prefer the purfume; I’m glad there’s a dedicated page for it! The EDT mocks my love for the EDT in it’s vauge similarity and ends in metallic, Freesia hell. At least for me. The EDT isn’t a bad purfume when just sprayed, it’s just not my preference on my skin. Long live the EDP!

    I have bought hundreds of new perfumes, but keep going back to this. Its my smell now and i have been wearing it since its launch. I love it ! I feel naked without it.

  61. :

    4 out of 5

    A light, soft, almost tangy, basic floral which is lovely, though stays close to the skin..
    I applied 6 heavy sprays
    0 – 3 mins – Not much
    3 mins- 1.5 hour. 1.25 foot projection. Youthful, synthetic and casual. Ages 21 – 32. This could easily pass as a sports frag or a “stepped out the shower” aroma. It is the sister of Lanvin Homme Sport. Very feminine, not unique and very linear. Lovely and care free, it lightens me up and anything that does that is good for me. Summer frag.
    1.5 hours 2.5 hours- 6 inch projection. Linear smell. This is a simple scent which may become booring quickly, but it is really nice and laid back.
    2.5 hours – 5.5 hours. 1.5 inch projection. Close to skin
    5.5 hours – 9 hours. Lasts a long time on skin but no projection
    This scent cannot compete with Issey Homme EDT, which is incredibly complex and a masterpiece, though you can tell that they are related. I recommend a small bottle of this EDP as you may get boored with this. This would be a good 1st purchase into fragrances.

    I have loved this perfume since the mid-1990’s, when I actually thought it was obscure, and I still wear it all the time but I need to find something new. I got all of my sisters-in-law wearing it and I have to move on now (weeping.) I don’t know what else to buy when I am done with this.
    Maybe if Clarins would bring back Elyssium, I might be happy.
    I actually started to try to study aromatherapy, spending a fortune on it, and really messing it up. I started diffusing orange and patchouli oil and all my sheets are sprayed with rosewater and it is giving me a migraine.
    I’m going to have to throw this other stuff out and start diffusing Issey or SOMETHING so I can get this headache to go away.

    I was obsessed with this fragrance in the early 2000s but didn’t buy it until 2010 or so. To me it’s a lovely, fresh, watery Oriental. I tend to wear it for dressy occasions because of the dominant rose and lily notes. I still think it’s beautiful, but it does feel a bit dated now that the fresh-aquatic “thing” has been done… and done… and done. I probably won’t repurchase when I finish my bottle.
