L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Sport Polar Expedition

I get a kick out of how they got this to smell like snow. A favorite after a workout hot shower and simply lounging about

for me this is the best issey miyake scent. I usually don't like issey miyake (PH, d'ete, summer) they are identical for me. But this one is different. It reminds me a scent from another brand but i don't remember. I will update if I remember.

yes, everything with "Sport" has bad longevity.

Well, if I was blindfolded, I wouldn't be able to distinguish between this and Chanel's Platinum Egoiste for the first few minutes. The best I can say is that it lacks that metallic sting that users of P.E. are greeted with. Issey is a more tamed version so to say, of the Chanel, both in terms of scent and how agressive it is to begin with. But the difference is mild at best to begin with. The drydown is where the two scents differ the most in my opinion. Issey lacks the class and zest of the Chanel here and has to content with a generic lemon-lime drydown, very similar to Versace Man Eau Fraiche drydown. Performance is not as good as the Chanel, but given that it's low cost, one can always reapply at will. I prefer the Chanel over this installment from Issey but the two are readily interchangable with minimal variation in the actual scents.

If you want a citrus freshie without any other notes in it - this is the one. There's no middle notes or base notes, just simply a blast of citrus that goes unchanged throughout the rather short duration that it stays on the skin. Of course this is no realistic, natural, niche-level citrus, but this is definitely that screechy, sharp, aquatic often found in all designer fragrances, but very good for the low price if you still manage to find one these days. If you consider the price and know what to expect, this is an absolute winner.

WTF??? If you can't tell the difference between this and Chanel PE there's something VERY wrong with your senses Honestly, I'm convinced some people are either intentionally making comments/comparisons that have nothing to do with the fragrance or they're drunk and on the wrong page...and the sheep that give it balloons are even worse This fragrance is 99.9999% like the original Issey Sport and smells NOTHING like platinum Egoiste....all I can do is shake my head

Clean crisp. Very refreshing and elegant citrus for everyday use. if you are familiar with the original sport flanker, this is the same DNA+Tons of citrus. It is More fresh and has less sweetness which makes it customized for extreme hot days.

Poor longevity and sillage. I will never buy any sport fragrance again
