The story behind the bottle.
L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme Summer 2017, created by Alberto Morillas and launched in 2017, captures the essence of a vibrant summer day. This aromatic-spicy fragrance opens with bright citrus notes like grapefruit and kiwi, balanced by the tropical sweetness of pineapple. The heart introduces coriander and nutmeg, adding a fresh spicy dimension that cuts through the fruitiness. As it settles into its woody base, vetiver and cypress provide a grounding warmth.
This fragrance blooms within an hour of application, so a light first pass allows the layers to develop naturally. It's best suited for daytime wear as its bright citrus opening can feel too energetic in the evening.
