L’Eau d’Issey Summer

Thursday, July 10th, 2008

My favourite summer fragrance is the Issey Miyake - L’Eau d’Issey. I have been a fan of this one for about 5 years now. What I love most is about this fragrance is that it has light and beautifully feminine notes of lotus, freesia, lilies and tube roses. This is considered quite a complex perfume, and has a wide range of scents to it. I think it makes the perfect fragrance for summer, and I’ve always loved that the Eau de Parfum comes with a refillable bottle.

Based upon the same notes as the original L’Eau d’Issey, the new Summer fragrance is described as a ’sparkling, luminous and effervescent’ perfume. I think the pretty bottle is reflective of this sparkling scent, with the blue glass and the decorative waterfall adornments. With so many summer options for fragrances, it is hard to know where to start. I tend to stick to just a few fragrances, so if you are a bit stumped with all the choices, start with what’s new in the lines you already know. With such a large number of new fragrances available this summer, now is the perfect time to try out some of the new and fabulous fragrances on offer this season.
