The Story

In 2011, Jacques Cavallier crafted L'Eau d'Issey Eau d'Ete for Issey Miyake — a fragrance that captures the essence of summer's freshness and light. The composition opens with water notes and pear, creating an immediate sense of crispness and vitality. As it evolves, rose, peony, carnation, and osmanthus introduce a delicate floral bouquet that is both bright and soothing. The woody base grounds this luminous blend, making it feel like a gentle breeze on a sunny day.

Application Tips

Apply this fragrance in light spritzes — its freshness works best when it feels like a gentle mist rather than an overpowering presence. The floral notes will bloom over time, so wear it close to skin for a more intimate experience.
