The story behind the bottle.
L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme Summer 2013 by Issey Miyake was launched in 2013, capturing the essence of a vibrant summer day. Perfumer Alberto Morillas crafted this aromatic fruity scent with a blend of fresh citrus and tropical fruits that exude brightness and energy. The fragrance opens with grapefruit and kiwi, creating an invigorating start, followed by coriander and nutmeg, adding warmth and complexity to the composition. Pineapple brings a juicy sweetness, while cypress and vetiver anchor the scent with earthy depth.
Apply this fragrance lightly to avoid overpowering its delicate balance. The top notes fade quickly after application, but the heart and base notes develop gradually over time, making it ideal for daytime wear when a fresh, invigorating scent is desired.
