L'Eau Majeure d'Issey
L'Eau Majeure d'Issey by Issey Miyake is a masculine-leaning eau de toilette from 2017 in the designer price tier. It opens with clementine and salt air, moves into ozonic notes and rain accord and dries down to cedarwood, musk and clean musk. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Clementine Small, sweet and a bit candied. Very easy to wear.
- Salt Air Open, breezy and mineral. Less sweet than most aquatics.
Heart
- Ozonic Notes The smell of air before a storm. Sharp, clean, slightly electric.
- Rain Accord Wet pavement and clean air. Comforting in a way that's hard to explain.
Dry-down
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Clean Musk Fresh laundry and soap. Safe and universally liked.
