Basenotes says:
L'Eau D'Issey is very popular, and is a big hit with the ladies. The packaging and bottle are very minimalist.

Basenotes visitors say:
"I used to be a big fan of Aqua di Gio... I have recently made the switch to Issey Miyake... it's really a fresh, clean scent.
And what I like about it, is that I can see this working well in the winter just as well as the summer. Then again, I find all citrus fragrances typically quite good in cool weather.
Issey Miyake is another fragrance that can be dressed up, or dressed down... another reason why I like it so much!"
by Jeffery Primeau , USA , 2003/05/09.

"This is a nice smelling cologne at first. However, I found it very annoying after using it several times. I liked it a lot, and then I started getting a headache after a while. Something about it also smells slightly like women's perfume."
by Sam , USA , 2003/03/27.

"Only tried it a couple of times and its one of those that makes my head ache after a while which is annoying because I love it! The one time when I splashed on the stuff at a shop, when I left, there was this granny sniffing away and following me with her daughter asking her: 'What are you doing?' and she said, 'He's wearing gorgeous aftershave'. I was worried but then a 16 year old loved the smell and claimed it drove her nuts and she was following around the streets in Leeds. Closest to an aphrodisiac so far, I can understand why it keeps getting rated as a favourite among women. Plus I have a housemate who always wears it and always seems to have girls chasing after him..."
by Media Mogul , UK , 2002/06/08.

"This is a good scent... but not for me. I found it too light - and sweet. After all the hype about it I was dissapointed. I'd classify it as a floral - oriental- citrussy - amberry fragrance that to me had elements of aqua di gio and claiborne sport. The topnotes were very sweet - and enervated my nose. The drydown was nice - the cypress - amber - sandalwood - tobacco notes - but very faint. But maybe its my just skin, which reacts negatively with many acclaimed perfumes..."
by Mark Devan Jonklaas , 2002/04/07.

" I LOVE THIS!!!!! PERFECT SUMMER SCENT!!! SO fresh and light. YAAAAMMMM!!!! nice lingering herbaceaus notes. I sampled this a while back and have gradually come to LOVE LOVE LOVE it!"
by Ali Nakhai , 2001/08/10.

"The best fragrance ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My favourite fragrance.It lasts a long, long time on u're skin. A littel bit expansive but it worth the money. Pure, fresh scent for the whole day. "
by Marius , 2001/08/02.

"hmmmm, today I tried on a sample of Issey Miyake I had. I dont like aquatic,herbaceous scents. But I liked Miyake a lot 2day. I wonder what it was? Have to try this more. The drydown was beautiful. Very soft yet fresh. go ISSEY!!! GO! Any thoughts? "
by Ali Nakhai , 2001/06/12.

"I like it very much! It's my summer fragrance of choice. It replaced the Givenchy Insensé Ultramarine I was wearing before. L'eau d'Issey has a beautiful dark woods base, with a fresh citrus top, with spices in-between."
by François Blais , 2000/11/10.
