Versatile everyday fragrance despite the “Nuit” in the title.
The opening is classic Issey Miyake: a strong citrus supported by a woody note. Soon after, though, it evolves into something much more relaxing and sophisticated. The amberwood is dominant but smooth. I would say that the fragrance description is accurate in this regard.
The sillage is not as strong for me as the note pyramid would suggest, but I just love how this fragrance develops. Fresh enough to wear in the day, alluring enough for nighttime. Also dumb-grab worthy across most seasons.

I’d enlist this into the ‘escapism’ category of scents. It’s the type of juice that helps you forget about where you are and who you are. This is suppose to evoke a diamond canopy and with the Woody edge this carries, everytime I smell it I think of camp fires, the forest at night, running rivers, vast outback mountain ranges, just pure nature really. Not that I’m particularly into that sort of thing but it just takes you there. Not the best longevity in the world but for the price you can’t go wrong. Considering getting it.

I dont understand this one, but then, I only tried it once on my wrist.
The opening is an amazing bergamot and coriander blast, but then it just becomes…nothing special…yet, I could not take off my wrist from my nose, there is something that keeps making me going back for more…and more…and more.
I think I like it!!?
A very easy to wear all rounder.
I will buy this and add an update to this review.

Amazing fragrance!
Lasts unbelievably long especially in warm weather: > 10 hrs.
Strong – not overpowering – Citrus/ Spicy/ Moderately Woody mix.
Approximately 2 hours after applying – and outdoors in > 33°C weather – the boil-down ( no pun intended ) is a very pleasant & vibrant quality that is characteristic of salty/ peppery/ sea-like/ with something else in there that is quite enigmatic but which adds a marine quality to it.
9.5/ 10 overall

It’s a fresh smelling fragrance that not every guy wears like ADG, so go for it, if you are still deciding whether to buy or not.

Ordered online just now & it’s a blind buy, glad to read the reviews that i didn’t make a mistake

Beautiful name, lovely scent. An all season scent in my opinion that despite its “Nuit” designation can easily be used in the daytime as well. Despite their different ingredients, its smell reminds me a lot of Aramis Gentleman – masculine, fresh, smooth and spicy – although Bleu Astral lasts much longer. Recommended!

Bought it last week. Superb fragrance . Long lasting . Settles down smoothly and fresh . Love it.
christmasbaby – :
This is a pleasant ‘blue’ frag and it kinda smells what you expect it to smell like – fresh spicy citrus sweet and ….. blue
Tropical waters, clear seas, heat, fresh ….. but lasts very mediocre
Tested this on the opposite wrist to Eau Majeure and after 2-3 hours this is gone – Majeure is cruising
Trends change and this flanker is generic in concept, likeable and not offensive in any way just doesn’t last and there’s very little originality to this creation
Good smell but no legs and slightly dated/boring (IMO)
cimbal – :
Yes it smells like a mix between Issey Nuit & Issey Sport but it is much closer to the latter because of how predominantly the lime note is.
I love both Nuit & Sport but Bleu Astral is better than neither in my opinion. It smells like a good, but inferior, reformula of Issey Sport. I guess that is why it’s a “limited edition”.
I like it but not enough to buy one.

as a female smelling this, i received this as a sample along with 5 other samples and i’ve sprayed these all on paper. this scent i put 5th while still wet. after they all dried, i ended putting it 6th swapping it with givenchy gentleman which smells to have a few of the same notes. i have 3 i like and 3 i dont like and as this being 6th, its one i dont particularly like. its not horrible but i’m not attracted to the scent at all. my impressions of notes i can smell is its very woody and leathery and lime. could imagine wearing it in a forest in spring in the fresh morning. other than that its not a scent thats going to lure me into you.
juliana2007 – :
It actually is an interesting scent during the first few minutes but the dry down is like mouthwash. But still, it’s interesting. Lol.

Quite disappointed with this scent,its performance is weak,silage is even weaker,i think issey would have done better on this latest release,i will always go back to the original issey,dont know what happen there after.
oksi10lompa – :
I love it! Not something very unique, but it’s perfect for a summer night out. Very elegant, great performance and overal a good fragrance. As i said, not very unique actually, it does remind me a lot of the original Cool Water from Davidoff and Green Irish Tweed- Creed. It’s somewhere between these 2. It’s not really a daring fragrance, i don’t think someone could say it really sucks. It’s pleasant, clean, elegant and safe for every environment.

I didnt know what to expect, but this to me is plain boring. There are much better alternativ out there.
tonaj – :
First of all i agree with Frample this
does start off rather fresh, i just
tested the Austral expedition on the
other hand as well, it comes of a bit
more spicy than the Astral but i think
thats pretty normal as Austral has more
notes, if you put your nose a little
to close to where you sprayed they both
are a bit dirty and earthy, but walking
around i get whiffs of a creamy delightful
scent, and that goes for the both of them,
i do like them very much the drydown is amazing.
