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

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.

better than the new one whichis terribly terrible but no match to original. it lasts awhile but not my kinda scent. a fougure type that does not reach home plate.

This one...if you want a head turner fragrance, this is it...people will turn their head wondering why you smell so bad...i have to admit...3 sprays for first trial...3 sprays the next day for 2nd trial and i dare not try it again...went straight to the bin..sorry, not for me.

I really tried liking this as I am a huge fan of other Issey Miyake fragrances, it just didn't get my attention it didn't stink but to me it didn't smell great either. longevity was good the dry down was nice but the opening was way to much for me, so I will give a neutral rating because the scent wasn't to my liking but it passes in all other categories.

Oooh is this a weird scent or what...? First of all, why is called "Blue"...? I get no blue vibes here and I have tried many blue scents before. Maybe rather leaning towards green, since the wood notes are so dominant in this fragrance. The only scent that I can come to think of with this much wooded notes is one from Hugo Boss. I also read that some find this to be a unisex scent... I can't really see that, unless you are the boyfiend of a wood chucker... I can see how all this does not seem too positive when it comes to grading these fumes, but I can't help, it is appealing in some sort of weird manner, noting I would wear, but maybe something that I would sniff from time to time... Another notion comes to mind, how is this scent working in Japan...hmmm...can see how the original IM is brilliant on this level, but this is more suitable for a Canadian lumber jack or like myself a Norse Viking...where the need for a mosquito repellent is imminent...or can come in handy when you need to leave a scent trail for a search party in the great woods...

My best friend used to live on a dairy farm. I have a lot of memories from that place. This scent brought them alllll back. Unfortunately, I do not want to smell of wet hay and granulated cattle feed. Yes, wet hay and granulated cattle feed. We used to play in barns full of the stuff, and I clearly remember the smell. I think someone earlier said that this is "agricultural", and I think that's a perfect description. It's not bad, but I don't think it's for me.

to be honest i did fork out a lot of money for thsi fragrance after smelling it on someone but i guess its one of those scents that you have to be the right person to wear it. it was just average to me
