Issey Miyake L'eau d'Issey Eau D'Ete Summer Edition is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2009. L'eau d'Issey Eau D'Ete Summer Edition opens with Fruity Notes and Pear, and settles into a heart of Floral Notes, Rose, and Peony. Issey Miyake's L'eau d'Issey Eau D'Ete Summer Edition carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This summer flanker is a surprisingly divisive one for something so generally likeable. Fans rave about its fresh, aquatic rose, while detractors find it unexpectedly stale and musty. Proceed with caution, but it could be your new hot weather favourite.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

L'eau d'Issey Eau D'Ete 2009 unfurls with a delicate, watery rose, swiftly accompanied by the lush sweetness of peony. A juicy pear brightens the composition, adding a touch of playful fruitiness to the predominantly floral heart. It's a fresh, uplifting bouquet with an aquatic undercurrent, designed for sun-drenched days.
