The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2011 by Issey Miyake and crafted by perfumer Alberto Morillas, L'Eau d'Issey Florale is a floral fragrance that marries the freshness of citrus with the warmth of woody notes. The composition centers on rose and white florals, creating an atmosphere that is both delicate and enduring. The soft spicy undertones add complexity without overpowering the floral heart, resulting in a scent that feels like a serene day spent surrounded by blooming gardens.
One or two sprays are sufficient — the citrus top notes are bright but fleeting, while the floral heart and woody base linger throughout the day. This fragrance reads better close to skin rather than across a room, making it perfect for an intimate environment.
