Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - L'Eau d'Issey EDT
A benchmark aquatic floral that's as clear and delicate as a mountain spring, L'Eau d'Issey is the archetype of effortless daily elegance. Both uplifting and quietly sophisticated.

Our Verdict - Osaka EDP
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey pour Femme (1992) - lotus, peony and cedar translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.
