About

L'Eau d'Issey Eau de Toilette is a crystalline composition that shimmers with luminous lotus, dewy melon, and a cascade of watery florals. Transparent and airy, it opens with a cool rush of lotus, cyclamen, and fresh melon, then blooms into a heart of lily, lily-of-the-valley, and peony. The base is sheer and clean, with musks and subtle woods lending a gentle caress. Iconic for its purity and freshness, it evokes the feeling of a garden after gentle rain - pristine, modern, and serenely feminine.
