I have the following from Issey (Most worn to least): Noir Ambre, Or Encens, Pulse of the Night, Nuit d'Issey Parfum, Noir Argent, Bleue, L'Eau Intense, Summer 2018, Oceanic Expedition, Bleu Astral...
I remember the original. It was amazing. So sad how reformulation changed it so much. I now only own the summer version of it but I forget which year it is. I like it quite a bit.
Nuit d'Issey Austral Expedition imo is a better rendition of this series. The added coriander note softens the leather and woods and gives the citrus freshness a herbal allure.
Leau Dissey Pour Homme is my dad's signature and he has had since it was released. I've been smelling for so many years and it's also my reason for wanting to get into the frag game and find my own signature (Burlington 1819). I will always love Issey Miyake's Leau Dissey Pour Homme and have it in my collection. I've been collecting all the variants of batches and they are all great, just missing the first batch now. Even the current ones (sheseido), although not too strong... still smell similar enough and keep the DNA well. Great timeless scent in my opinion and Thank you for the video on the house ❤
You must try the fraish version from 2016, it is like a mix of OG and Sport with added good dose of ambroxan - very long lasting , bitter sparkling and chic and elegant Thanks for the review.
That’s so funny, those were my only main fragrances throughout the later 90’s too! Le male, D&G por homme mugler a men, issey miyake along with another by sander (which is impossible to find now) called sander for men
Thank you for reviewing Issey Miyake! The original Leau Dissey pour homme is my favorite and have used it for years but haven’t bought myself a new bottle. I need to. I’ve always had compliments wearing this fragrance in the boardroom. Bravo! This fragrance is definitely a classic.
L'Eau D'Issey Pour Homme is really the best from the brand, though it doesn't seem to last long on me. I have and enjoy Or Encens, Noir Ambre and Noir Argent. I also have Fusion Extreme, but it's just ok - it really smells like a lot of other designer fragrannces out there. Nice coconut note, if you're into that sort of thing.
I enjoy this house! Nuit d'Issey is the grandfather of This is Him and Nuit d'Issey Parfum is a clear inspiration for the Z&V. Or Encens is the best for me, followed by PoTN and then Ambre Nuit which, disappointingly, smells very close to Arabian Oud's Kalemat, which I already had in my collection.
Few months ago I got the chance to try L’Eau Super Majeure d’Issey, reminds me of AdG Profumo. I used to own L’Eau d’Issey original when I was younger. Back then I only wore freshies😅
There is also L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Vétiver which was horrible and I couldn't smell it after 30 mins. One of my worst blind buys (together with Prada Luna Rossa EDP) in 2023.
L'Eau d'Issey will ALWAYS have a spot in my collection. It provokes the most nostalgia out of everything I own.
I feel the same way.
Its a legend!
I loved their summer flankers

I recently revisited the original and I agree, it doesn't smell dated at all.
The new Vetiver is fantastic as well
Issey Miyake Intense is amazing for the price and longevity is off the scale!
You should try L'Eau d'Issey Intense, it's a great mix of the original's fresh yuzu with some amber and incense in the drydown.
I wore the exact rotation as you, L’eau D’Issey Pour Homme, Dolce & Gabbana Pour Homme, and Le Male.
This was the way ❤
Nuit d'Issey Austral Expedition imo is a better rendition of this series. The added coriander note softens the leather and woods and gives the citrus freshness a herbal allure.
I’ve been wearing the original all this week. Couldn’t believe it when I saw you were reviewing it.
I have many many fragrances but the Issey get me the most compliments.

Ooo, thank you, sir, for this list!!
Pulse of the Night is my favorite Nuit d’Issey
L’eau Blue is my other

My favorite brand of designer fragrances.

Welcome!
Pulse of the night was fantastic!! A very nice Herod like fragrance!

Can you review the new Guerlain Vetiver Parfum ?
Thanks for the knowledge
I used to the Bleu(the blue bottle)it got me a lot of compliments.
Too much lemon and yuzu
My husband got the L'Eau d'Issey Vetiver from last year. He loves it. I think this year they are releasing a lavender one
I enjoy this house! Nuit d'Issey is the grandfather of This is Him and Nuit d'Issey Parfum is a clear inspiration for the Z&V. Or Encens is the best for me, followed by PoTN and then Ambre Nuit which, disappointingly, smells very close to Arabian Oud's Kalemat, which I already had in my collection.
Eau & Cedre also has grapefruit and cypress in it. So it has some citrus in it. I like this one, it is indeed a little boring, but it smells good.
Bleue and Intense are also great
I have Nuit D'issey Parfum, Noir Argent and Noir Ambre... All great scents...
Sebastian, would you consider doing videos for the Snif brand and also for the Estee Lauder Luxury collection?
L’eau Bleue is still available….
Pick it up before it’s gone!
His fragerances are really good just wished they projected more
Sebastian, you should definitely try the Vetiver version, it’s beautiful!
I liked it. Thank you for reminding me!! :)
Early 2k's Lavender heavy L'eau D'issey was the best.
Jacques Cavillier also created masterpiece Armani Sport Code.
Or encens and ambre nuit are the best
I bought my issey yesterday the first time I heard about was from biggy small he sang about it In one of his raps and I wanted one since
Pour Homme was a GREAT fragrance...game changer
Good stuff!!
I hate the note of Calone but I really can't smell it in Eau&Cedre
I hope I wont start smelling it now😮
Oh no.
How long of longevity do i get now if i buy a new bottle in 2024? Did the reformulations make it THAT bad ir dies it still perform like 5-6 hours?
Not 5-6 hours on me!
Weird that added leather makes it “sport.”
Few months ago I got the chance to try L’Eau Super Majeure d’Issey, reminds me of AdG Profumo. I used to own L’Eau d’Issey original when I was younger. Back then I only wore freshies😅
Noire Ambre is the one I'm keen to put my nose on.
There is also L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Vétiver which was horrible and I couldn't smell it after 30 mins. One of my worst blind buys (together with Prada Luna Rossa EDP) in 2023.
Is the L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme Vétiver Eau de Toilette Intense similar to the L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme Eau & Cèdre Eau de Toilette Intense?
I smelled it in passing and they weren't similar. Might have to pick that one up soon! :)
@@ThePerfumeGuy Thanks so much for your prompt reply. Look forward to your review of it.
You're welcome! :)
miyake pour homme (the one you like? has calone in it
Not according to the IM website. And if it does have it it’s hidden as I don’t pick it up thankfully. Cause I can’t stand that 🤮 note! 😀
Great house!
It’s lost that amazing pungent yuzu as it once smelt. It’s now flat. Smells like a urinal now.
LA NUIT
Nice fragrance. But it is not long last at all. Even I do not feel smell after 1hr
That’s a bummer.
🌹
Issey Miyake Sport is great. Not many reviews of it. I like it over the original. Very fresh, woody and kind of sweet.
Thanks for sharing!
