Which Should You Buy?
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.
A budget take on Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey, that benchmark airy aquatic floral. Complete Japanese captures the watery lotus-and-melon freshness and the clean floral heart, but the ethereal, spring-water transparency reads flatter, and it stays even closer to the skin than the already-mild original.
