A Scent By Issey Miyake

A scent By Issey Miyake has been a breathe of fresh air for me thanks to the simple plain bottle and the unique uplifting fresh scent. When I first saw the bottle I was pleasantly surprised and loved the simplicity of the design and shape. I definatley believe in the motto 'Less is More' and this fits perfectly on this occasion.


♥ Top Notes ♥
Verbena

♥ Heart Notes ♥
Hyacinth & Jasmine

♥ Base Notes ♥
Galbanum

Issey Miyake describe this as-

A fresh, floral and woody Eau de Toilette. A unique fragrance of natures essentials: leaves, flowers and woods. Fresh notes of Hyacinth and Galbanum provide the perfume with a green, floral heart, enchanced by uplifting Verbena and a hint of Jasmine.

When I first sprayed this it did remind me of a gents fragrance and even my husband commented on how 'manly' it smelt. However after allowing the fragrance to settle it soon came apparent how feminine and delicate the scent actually is. I like the frosted design on the sides of the bottle and how the name of the fragrance is in bold writing on the front making a big statement.

You can pick up a bottle of this for as little as £16.50! If this appeals to you then I would recommend you pop along to Escentual.com where they have a special offer on the 30/50/100mls.
