About

L'Eau d'Issey opens with a delicate, dewy rose and sweet melon, immediately evoking the sensation of a fresh aquatic floral. As it settles, a bouquet of lily and peony emerges, underpinned by a soft, almost powdery white floral heart. The base maintains this clean, refined aura with subtle woods, creamy sandalwood, and a whisper of amber and musk, leaving a lasting impression of serene freshness.
