L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme Summer Eau de Toilette

I don’t know how many of these bottles are still floating around out there, so: If you love the Issey Miyake yuzu/citrus DNA, do yourself a big favor and hunt for this one. It has that l’Eau d’Issey citrus without the florals/multiplicity of spices and woods. Its a simpler and more straightforward composition that suits the “fresh” genre more successfully than the original. The addition of cardamom and sage give the drydown a mild yet divinely exotic depth that is such a pleasure to experience. Just a great summer fragrance.

One of my favorite summer fragrances, without question. The opening is PERFECT. Bright, zesty, citrus, clean, refreshing and airy, the dry down is cold, dry/spicy, bitter citrus, mildy floral. The only downside is either the performance is weak or I get scent blind to it after an hour or two. Other than that I am on my third bottle and will chase down time itself to continue buying this. It’s the perfect citrus/airy spice fragrance on earth, bow to it.

A lovely combination of yuzu and water lily with an ambery sage bloom. This is my personal favorite cologne. Gives you a blast of fresh citrus at first but then fades, it still hangs around unlike some summer fragrances, very nice. Projection and lifespan are exceptional. This is ideal for the summer.

This one is my favorite cologne. A lot of the summers smell the same to me, some of the older ones, 2002,etc, also have a weird sulfur powder smell, perhaps from age. This year (2010) the smell is awesome, one of my fav colognes, always complimented by women.

Beautiful yuzu + water lily mixed with an ambery sage flower. Little drier than the original and less aquatic but worth a try as is a gorgeus reinterpretation with the same long lasting and projection as the initial one Thumbs up!.

The smell is so refreshing that it tells u rightaway SUMMER IS HERE! Very apt for Indian summers and for young Indian men... Overall: 4.2 5 Nose-gasm 4 Awsome sauce! 3 Good but not exciting enough 2 Meh! 1 Hell to the no!

HEY !!!!! no need to be sad summer will come around again and we will rejoice and have fun again!!!! Until then Issey Miyake!!!

One of my signature scents from the L'Eau d'Issey summer range for men. I Think Its Perfect... Heavenly...

Very similar to Summer Glimmer, but projects and lasts longer. A floral clean scent, like fresh cut grass and flowers. Most summer fragrances from Miyake smell similar. Women like it, so it's a fragrance to wear whenever you are around a lot of women. Maybe a bit too floral for some men. I would recommend this for the Spring time, and cool summer days. (3-4 sprays max) Age group: 18+ Projection: 5 stars Longevity: 4.5 stars Versatility: 3.5 stars Smell: 3.75 stars Overall: 4 stars

☻☺☻☺☻ L'Eau d'Issey Summer is simply citrusy and smooth from opening to drydown in a colorful bottle. Its transition makes me wonder how it starts off so fresh and end up as a balanced sweet and woody fragrance. IMHO, L'Eau d'Essey Summer is a very good juice. I might consider buying this if summer editions of other brands does not tie with this one. Cheers, ☻☺☻☺☻

THIS GIVES YOU A BLAST OF FRESH CITRUS AT THE BEGINING BUT THEN FADES, IT STILL HANGS AROUND UNLIKE SOME SUMMER FRAGRANCES, VERY NICE

Bought a bottle of this juice blind after reading amazing reviews online. I've tried it on a couple times and really can't get into it at all. I pickup a lot of green and much less citrus then most people are saying. I am selling my full bottle on eBay so I can recoup some of my money to try something else. This is my first blind buy that I wasn't happy about buying.

L'eau d'Issey Pour Homme Summer is surprisingly sweet, much lighter and less sharp than the original. I'm rather enjoying it, and while I've only just been introduced to it, I'm considering it for myself. Due to the lemon and the pepper being absent in this fragrance, I find the scent as a whole, a lot more pleasing to the nose and much cleaner. The yuzu and the mandarin orange are quite sweet and zesty, almost like the scent of an expensive shampoo. Thankfully the sage and the vetiver provide a masculine touch, however like I said, this could be worn by women also. Most people are bored with the quantity of Summer flankers flooding our stores, however I'm glad that this particular flanker was released. This fragrance isn't an aquatic and that's why it differs so much to the original. It has this wonderful 'fresh out the shower' feel, which is all you need on a boiling hot day. At times it can be a little soapy, but really I'm not complaining. If a man close to me was wearing this right now, I'd most likely give him my number regardless of what he looked like. The longevity is pretty good as is the sillage which is not too strong nor too weak. It has been a lovely surprise discovering this fragrance, and something I wish was not just a limited edition.

This one is nice and fresh and just the thing for summer in the tropics; I really like the mint and citrus notes up front, although the dry-down gets a bit soapy which is fresh but not really my thing. It doesn't last forever (2-3 hours) but the silage seems good for a while, certainly long enough to attract positive comments from men and women. I've had a number of people ask (one actually insisted) whether this was CK One; which I don't have; and evidentl;y don't need if this smells just like it...

Put the soft aromatic lines of the original and mixed with a velvety green aura, lovely variation. Im not a fan of the classic L ́Eau but in this version is balanced, luminous, organic and sensitive. What i expect in the first fragance is what i found in this summer version. The bottle is a piece of art.

Picture a slighly diluted of the original version of L`Eau d`Issey Pour Homme with a sharp citrus scent at the begining! Refreshing and consider long lasting (3 hours plus on me) among other summer fragrance! One of the best Summer fragrance for 2010!

Glad I found a sample on eBay! This stuff makes my girlfriend weak in the knees.. I’ll have to get more because I’m going to wear this whenever I hope to get down. -she likes the issey DNA so I knew this would work., Issey Miyake bring it back!

Good choice for summer. It was different on strip and totally different on skin. I like it, it has a slight DNA of original , but wayyy better than original, as i really dont like original. It should have more sweetness. So much citrus..

Summer edition is way better than the actual famed version which i am not a big fan of. really good longevity for a summer frag. projection mediocre. Smells like a beautifully fragrant summer.

have always soft corner to ISSEY MIYAKE. using it now. should say Ok. Longevity needs to test now. This BRAND is some thing which I cant hate
