Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey Shade of Sunrise is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2019, created by Aurélien Guichard. L'Eau d'Issey Shade of Sunrise opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Jasmine, and Frangipani, settles into a heart of Rose, Ylang-Ylang, Heliotrope, and Osmanthus, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, and Coconut. Issey Miyake's L'Eau d'Issey Shade of Sunrise carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

A brilliant, creamy tropical floral that's a dead ringer for more expensive beachy scents like Maison Margiela's Beach Walk. It's a sunny, sophisticated holiday in a bottle that the community raves about, despite some wishing for better longevity.

About

Imagine waking up on a luxurious tropical island. L'Eau d'Issey Shade of Sunrise opens with a bright, zesty hit of lemon and bergamot, quickly joined by the lush, heady scent of frangipani and jasmine. As the citrus mellows, warm ylang-ylang and heliotrope emerge, blending seamlessly with a creamy coconut and soft sandalwood base. It's a sweet, floral, and utterly transportive experience.
