Nuit d'Issey Bois Arctic

by Dominique Ropion , Fanny Bal

Issey Miyake Nuit d'Issey Bois Arctic is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Dominique Ropion and Fanny Bal. Nuit d'Issey Bois Arctic opens with Grapefruit, Mandarin, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Basil, Pepper, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Tonka Bean, Vanilla, and Tobacco. Issey Miyake's Nuit d'Issey Bois Arctic carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh spicy-led wear.

A truly underrated gem that nails that tricky 'winter fresh' vibe. It's a versatile beast, although its limited availability means grabbing a bottle feels like finding a pot of gold.

About

Bois Arctic hits you with a bright, zesty grapefruit and mandarin punch, sharpened by a lively pink pepper. As it settles, fresh basil and a deeper black pepper emerge, bridging the gap to a warm, inviting base of creamy vanilla, tonka bean, and a subtly smoky tobacco. It's a cool yet comforting dance of fresh spice and sweet aromatic depth.
