Issey Miyake Le Sel D’lssey, Sample
Le Sel d’Issey by Issey Miyake is a Woody Aquatic fragrance for men, introduced in 2024 by renowned perfumer Quentin Bisch. This fragrance is a captivating reinterpretation of the classic aquatic genre. The opening notes of sea salt and ginger create a refreshing and invigorating sensation. The sharpness of the ginger pairs harmoniously with the dry, mineral quality of sea salt, evoking the bracing freshness of a coastal breeze. This combination sets the stage for a scent that is both energising and sophisticated.
As the fragrance unfolds, an energising heart of seaweed and vetiver emerges, offering a unique interplay between the marine and earthy elements. The seaweed provides a subtle, saline quality that complements the grassy, slightly smoky character of vetiver. This heart creates a sense of dynamic tension, enhancing the overall complexity of the fragrance and maintaining its aquatic essence while adding depth and intrigue.
In the base, classic oakmoss and cedarwood provide a grounding, woody foundation. The oakmoss contributes a rich, earthy undertone, while the cedarwood adds a touch of warmth and refinement. Together, they create a dry-down that is both comforting and enduring. Le Sel d’Issey is a modern fragrance that offers a unique and appealing scent profile, making it a versatile choice for those seeking a distinctive signature fragrance.
