Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

Built on white floral, citrus and fresh spicy - a composition that sits best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its fresh, delicate floral character makes it highly suitable for casual wear and the office, where it won't overpower. While pleasant, its subtle nature means it might get lost in formal or more intimate date settings. It's too soft for sport.

About

Lumieres d'Issey opens with a bright burst of mandarin and the green snap of redcurrant leaf, softened by a dewy rose. The heart introduces a gentle floral blend, with the sparkling freshness of lily of the valley given a subtle kick by a touch of peppery spice. It settles into a tender base of powdery violet and a hint of creamy tuberose, creating a sheer, airy white floral experience.
