L'Eau Bleue D'Issey pour Homme (2004)
by Issey Miyake

One of the best Issey has to offer and the top one for me from this line. This one catches ones attention fight from when it lands on skin. Very powdery & to an extent herbal in a very cool way. This one has that unique quality which I have
seen in only few scents...the way this surrounds/engulfs the wearer. The other scent which created this domain for me was L'Instant. The peppery zing along with exotic florals and dash of spices lead you into a beautiful accord which forms the heart of this scent...the interplay is just plain amazing. The best part isn’t over yet, it has to offer one of best ambery, woody mossy drydowns ever, making you feel totally refreshed for another round. A classic somehow underplayed and ignored here on BN.

oh my God, was my first reaction, it brought to my mind those days of drawing and painting, when i was a painting artist, it´s true remembered also NEW WEST aramis. excellent fragrance!

I really do like this one. It is somewhat complex. It has a piney-herbaceous overtone that stays throughout the cologne's lifespan; then there is a soft powdery undertone which softens the pine and herbs. The powdery undertone hints at iris even though there is no mention in the notes pyramid but that is how it comes across to me. Anyone can wear this for any occasion, day or night. I have to admit it is different but worth a try.

I personally love this one, the basenotes are where it shines the most though.
The Topnotes are kinda weird. It has this thing that it does which pisses me off
though, it changes on my skin according to the weather(summer does this good).
Plus don't over apply this one, It's kinda strong. But other then that go for it.

Kind of smells like rosemary and cucumber. What a strange scent. Smell first before buying.

What a strange concoction. It's both putrid and wonderful at the same time. Quite odd. Reminds me of the notes of Fluid Iceberg. Hugely synthetic. Thumbs up on the weirdness, thumbs down on the smell.
