Issey Miyake Nuit d'Issey Austral Expedition is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2015, created by Loc Dong. Nuit d'Issey Austral Expedition opens with Lemon, Grapefruit, Lime, and Coriander, settles into a heart of Leather, Herbal, Lavender, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Coumarin, and Amberwood. Issey Miyake's Nuit d'Issey Austral Expedition carries an Acquired verdict, an aromatic-led wear.

This flanker offers a genuinely captivating opening that's arguably art; it's a shame the performance doesn't match its initial brilliance. A unique, fresh take on the Nuit d'Issey DNA that's sadly fleeting.

About

Nuit d'Issey Austral Expedition opens with a burst of zesty lime and grapefruit, sharpened by a distinct, almost icy coriander and mint. This vibrant citrus freshness transitions into a sophisticated heart of lavender, earthy geranium, and a subtle, refined leather. The drydown settles into a comforting base of smooth vetiver, warm amberwood, and a touch of sweet coumarin, leaving a gentle, masculine trail.
