Issey Miyake EAU MAGNOLIA
Thirty years ago, Issey Miyake expressed an olfactory desire never realized before. With his first perfume he dreamed of finding the smell of a drop of water on a woman's skin. Today we are introduced to Issey Miyake EAU MAGNOLIA.
To respond to this unusual and surprising request, perfumer Jacques Cavallier invented L'Eau d'Issey. More than a perfume, it was the first expression of a completely new olfactory category: aquatic fragrances. Thanks to an overdose of Calone, a synthetic molecule, one could feel the intoxicating gush of almost salty water on the skin.
A woman's skin, symbolized by white, vaporous and sensual petals. It happened in 1992. Three years later, a masculine essence, like a flood of woody spices, made its appearance. A reference duo for 30 years. Today, Issey Miyake presents two fragrances that celebrate the meeting of the elements with the extraordinary delicacy that has always characterized the Maison.
Issey Miyake EAU MAGNOLIA: A declaration of love for water, naturally, for its mutability in the encounter with wild nature. An ode to the beauty of the plant world, its raw materials, the incredible variety of its textures, its innate sensuality. A new impetus from the Eaux d'Issey which celebrates their history, but which orients the brand towards the future with the ever-present desire to innovate while remaining at the service of nature.
L'EAU D'ISSEY | Issey Miyake EAU MAGNOLIA
The waving water, fresh and enveloping, meets the magnolia, a lively, light, luminous and so delicately feminine flower. An almost divine union between two elements: the water, velvety on the skin, and the air rich in light that penetrates the magnolia petals. An infusion of flowers, like vibrant dew, bathed in sunlight. An elusive Issey Miyake EAU MAGNOLIA Intense Eau de Toilette, almost a dream, yet so addictive. Daphné Bugey, nose and star of the Firmenich brand, is the creator of this incredibly delicate score. In a clash of the elements, water and wood merge in this Eau de Toilette Intense that explores the power of masculinity in its most refined form. The humidity of the water contrasts with the dry and vibrant wood of the cedar to the point that its strength acquires movement and fluidity.
It is as if the water were modeling the wood without affecting its strength, but rather transparently revealing the vital essence of its sap.
His secret? A cutting-edge molecule, Aquozone®, which generates a multi-faceted, floral and aquatic fragrance, delicate and powerful. Similar to a velvety dew, supported by the juicy sparkle of a bergamot sweetened by neroli. The emblematic flower of the fragrance, the magnolia spreads a magnetic aura on the skin in its irresistible duality, as ethereal as it is sensual.
A bouquet of roses enhances its most feminine accents, while a sunny breath sublimates the velvet of each petal and the sensuality of its heart. A base note of sandalwood makes it even more engaging, leaving its trail on the skin wrapped in tender musk. The expression of a simple and pure sensuality, of an evidence.
