Reviews of L'Eau D'Issey| Darvant ItalyShow all reviews | This is in each sense an aquatic, a floral and airy aquatic with a musky-woody base that tames a bit the metallic tartness of lemon and carnation, a fragrance in which the citrus produce the water and the right dosage of bitterness balanced by a floral subtle mildness . Over that citrusy sink float many different kinds of aquatic flowers as peonia, lotus, water rose, freesia and others that create a sophisticated and delicate wake that is extremely balanced and subtle. The lemony and airy vibe reminds the Pour Homme's temperament. The green feel is produced by the musky base and a sharp ambergris imprints taste, a bit of dust and bodily appeal. A different, transparent and silent kind of sharp womanly appeal. 27th November, 2011. |

| nonnative ItalyShow all reviews | I expected much from L'Ed'I. I liked the ad and the bottle. Intrigued by such a cultural name, reminding of greek classical readings of my youth, I wanted to try it. I'm sorry to say I was a little disappointed. Even if I appreciated the watery bitterness of sea notes, what I mostly perceive is a cheap man aftershave. And the velvety drydown make you forget the freshness of the opening notes. 2nd June, 2011. |
| frankincense United StatesShow all reviews | I'm attracted to florals for day only when they are as crisp and fresh as L'eau d'Issey. I haven't had a whiff of Escape in a long time, but I think the "water" attraction is the same for me in both these fragrances. A long long time ago, growing up in a small town, I bought a drugstore concoction called "Rain." Although priced for teens and surely never to be found again, there is definitely a hint of it in L'eau d'Issey. I agree with Lady Love that there is exquisite melon here too, reminding me of how many melon-flavored things one can find in Japan. 2nd April, 2011. |
![]() The Aethernaut United KingdomShow all reviews | I can understand how this groundbreaking juice was originally sold as the scent of water itself - it's coolness could be an interpretation of fresh water, but to me this is simply an elegant and unusual floral. It's use of crisp, clean floral notes which are strong and heady but not cloying or indolic give a powerful illusion of calmness and cool almost to the point of being chilly. Though this fragrance does not play nicely on everyone and can be incredibly variable it is absolutely beautiful on skin that suits it, and for once I am lucky as I can wear this and I know it smells as it should. Most florals screech or turn sour on me so I consider myself doubly lucky that if I chose, I could wear this. 22nd March, 2011. |
| lady love ArgentinaShow all reviews | Smell like a mature and exquisite melon. I'm crazy about melon notes, and this fragrance work them beautifully. You will fell the woods and the musk. 28th January, 2011. |
