Issey Miyake is a Japanese designer house; its L'Eau d'Issey line launched in 1992. The 59 Issey Miyake perfumes here start at about $16 and go up to about $160. If you are new to Issey Miyake, Issey Miyake A Drop d'Issey, Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme and Issey Miyake Le Sel D'Issey Eau de Parfum are the names fragrance communities mention most.
Issey Miyake A Drop d'Issey (Eau de Parfum, 2021) comes across as creamy rose and almond milk with soft powder; the notes run from almond milk and Damask rose to Ambrox, musk and Atlas cedar. Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme (1994) reads as clean citrus water, woody spice, amber warmth, opening on yuzu and mandarin orange and drying down to sandalwood, vetiver and amber. Issey Miyake Le Sel D'Issey Eau de Parfum (Eau de Parfum, 2025) smells of salty sea air, green algae, incense smoke, with Salt and seaweed up top and cedarwood and amber underneath.

From community discussion. Scendira reads what people say about a perfume on forums, social groups and video platforms, then turns it into scores for longevity, projection and blind-buy safety. Notes and accords come from public catalogue data. We say nothing when there is too little evidence to judge.
A perfume judged relatively approachable without trying it first. The Blind Buy Safety score combines community ratings and first-wear reports with catalogue data, not marketing. Skin chemistry still varies, so sample first when you can.
No. Scendira is not affiliated with any fragrance house and does not take paid reviews. No brand can pay to rank higher or be recommended by Dira. Buy links are affiliate links: we may earn a small commission, and you pay the same price.
