About This Perfume
Fusion d'Issey by Issey Miyake is a Aromatic Fougere fragrance for men. Fusion d'Issey was launched in 2020. The nose behind this fragrance is Nathalie Lorson. Top notes are Coconut Milk, Fig Nectar and Lemon; middle notes are Sandalwood, Rosemary, Cardamom and Geranium; base notes are Ambroxan, Woody Notes and Patchouli. Powerful, vigorous, and fiery, nature reveals itself (again) with a vengeance. Molten lava pours expressively from a volcano. Fusion d’Issey transforms this eruption of energy into a bold, nuanced composition, giving rise to a creative, endemic nature. Depth, tension, and power for a distinctive fragrance. Master Perfumer Nathalie Lorson composed Fusion d’Issey, a fougère for men with solar and mineral notes. A rewriting of a masculine classic. A play on contrasts between the cold and the heat of warming spices. For the cool aspect, the sparkling brightness of lemon is paired with the milky sweetness of coconut water, a long-lasting solar scent. Plunging into the heart of the volcano to encounter the mineral and uncover the roundness of ambrox. In an ethereal whisper, essence of fresh rosemary, geranium, and cardamom (both cool and blazing) dissipate, filling the surroundings with their trailing scent. Underlying the notion of fusion is the choice of warm, volcanic wood featuring patchouli. For Nathalie Lorson, Fusion d’Issey “shows an incandescent quality”. A new masculinity, heat and cold to express the idea of the quintessence of molten rock. Overflowing with energy and vitality, Fusion d’Issey, a fragrance for daring adventures. The bottle is made of shiny glass in a deep blue color, with the inscription Fusion d'Issey printed in bright orange. Issey Miyake Fusion d'Issey is available as a 50 and 100 ml Eau de Toilette.
