The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2011, A Scent Soleil de Neroli by Issey Miyake is a floral fragrance that captures the essence of sunlit citrus groves. Perfumer Daphné Bugey crafted this scent around neroli and tiare flower, creating an opening that feels bright and fresh with a hint of green freshness. The heart notes of hyacinth, jasmine, and gardenia add depth and warmth to the composition, while musk rounds out the base, providing a soft, lingering finish.

How to wear it

Apply one to two sprays to your pulse points. The fragrance opens quickly with its citrus freshness but evolves over time, so it's best worn in layers for a more complex experience throughout the day.
