Issey got good

Wow citrus scents are then nevertheless times in good and interesting. I'm not usually a friend of the classic lemon bombers, but this one's got something. The bergamot is refreshed right at the start by the mint. The rosemary only adds a subtle but not inconsiderable light spice for the prelude. As a friend of Kenzos Power I like well constructed floral notes in men's perfumes. These assumed mMn. a certain age of the wearer because they didn't sound a sweet-prollily, riot-brushed trombone with an exaggerated sillage, but rather discreetly sprayed a certain amount of stem. Maybe I only have an exclusive opinion, who knows. But, finally, back to the fragrance, musk and the white Pachouli variant that hasn't told me anything so far bring a wonderful base that still makes the floral heart appear masculine. And, because I am just a little money saver, with 25 Euronen for 75ml at TK (is unfortunately always connected with a bit of luck at TK) a real snapper

Me-likey Miyake !

A simple but distinguished spring/summer scent that's best for any daytime dress shirt occassion, imo. A cool, astringent bergamot peel in mint-oil accord hits me in the Opening. Establishing a "mature" herbal character. (By "mature" I simply mean more reserved than energetic in style.)

As the scent developes... A calm and reassuring skin-musk warms up to my body temperature... and blends everything seamlessly to my skin. This is where "Bleu Fraiche" really shines. The musk diffuses rosemary and bergamot, to undermine the severity of it's bitter elements with a delicate citrus/floral tint. An understated and intimate "heart". Gentlemanly, without beng uptight.

I get a smooth, airy, close to body sillage for 5+ hours on my skin. Pretty good preformance for a light, translucent scent. To say that "Bleu Fraiche" is simply "L'eau Bleu" without the spiciness and "body" (although true), would be doing it injustice. It has enough character of it's own to stand shoulder to shoulder with popular office-friendly scents like Bvlgari pour homme extreme, for example. There is one caution! This scent may work against those who have strong "scent-memory" of Vicks vapor rub, or a mentholated ointment -at least in the opening. I initially get that vibe myself to be honest. But fortunately... that disappears for me after the scent develops.

A "must try" for anyone who likes Issey Miyake scents. But don't blind buy. Very very Good.

L'eau Bleue watered down

Balanced smell of rosemary with a bit of lemons and mint.

It's really a watered down version of L'eau Bleue. Actually a good version, great for summer.

Sillage, lasting power and projection are medium.
