The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Vetiver by Issey Miyake is a Woody Aromatic fragrance launched in 2023 and crafted by perfumer Marie Salamagne. The composition opens with an aromatic freshness that transitions into a warm, earthy vetiver base, creating a scent that oscillates between crisp, aquatic notes and the rich depth of woody accords. This balance is reminiscent of Issey Miyake's innovative approach to design — marrying simplicity with complexity to create something both modern and lasting.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance lightly — the aromatic top notes are bright but fade quickly, allowing the vetiver base to emerge gradually. It pairs well with casual wear during the day and transitions effortlessly into an evening out.
