551 Scent of Familiarity

This one took some getting used to. On first spray, it leans pretty musky and woody on my skin, almost to the point where I wasn’t sure I liked it. The opening can feel a bit sharp or dry, depending on the day. After an hour or so, though, it settles into something much nicer — soft, warm, and very close to the skin. It’s definitely a “you smell it on yourself” kind of fragrance, not something meant for compliments or strong projection. Longevity is decent, but it wears quietly the whole time. I like this more in relaxed settings or when I want something subtle and personal rather than noticeable. Not love at first spray, but it grew on me.

THE BEST!!! I layer this with all of my fragrances it is actually a good perfume layering. I've yet to find a scent I cant pair with this. It's a very intimate skin scent so don't expect it to be loud but it's also a good way to make strong fragrances wearable. I especially love the hint of green apple makes it quite fresh.

This is my very first ISSY perfume, and I got it as a gift. I’ve been obsessed with it since day one! Even my father couldn’t resist it; he loved it so much he actually asked if he could claim it as his own 😭😭😭 Definitely repurchasing this for both me and my father because we’re officially ISSY-perfume lovers now!

mine and my boyfriend's favourite perfume! its very easy on the nose and we would always get compliments when we wear this out. the scent lingers on the nose and skin - but it isn't too overpowering. i kinda love the smell of this as it mixes with a bit of sweat/ your skin.

I absolutely love this perfume — the scent is elegant, long-lasting, and something I genuinely want to have in my collection. It’s the kind of fragrance that makes you feel confident the moment you wear it.

So fresh with a musky touch. This is my go-to scent every day whether I’m on a date or at the office. I get compliments most of the time when I wear this.

I love the musky subtle scent. Very clean and simple but has great impact. Nothing too crazy, just straightforward.

This scent is for everyone! It has the right amount of femininity and masculinity. It's smells clean and fresh!

This scent is a perfect fall fragrance. It smells warm and cozy. It matches cooler weather and sweater days.

I want it, but I can’t buy it right now because I’m prioritizing other things at the moment.

My fave from Issy's edp collection! Simply feels soft, fresh, and clean!

It has unisex scent and warm and comforting fragrance that lasts long.

I love this perfume because it can be layer with different perfumes.

551 Scent of Familiarity is a crowd favorite, but to me it's only third best of all three. It plays it safe, balances the appeal of 030 and 492, but isn't as strong as those two alone. Still, without the two, it stands out, and you can't help but look for its scent again and again.

beautiful musk! i smell mostly the ambroxan and musk. id like to say it smells like photorealistic white musk – clean, dry/starchy, and just a tinge animalic! edit: i was thinking of bunny tail grass (and confused it with white musk)

It performs pretty well on my skin for its price. Since the scent profile is similar to the ones I currently use, I can easily layer it with my existing stash. It reminds me of Tamburins Botarri, but I can’t seem to find it here.

Very fresh and vibrant. Turned out to be a surprise for me. Its like getting out from a cold shower, my hair's fresh, my skin's refreshed and ready to wear linen.

sad imitation of Another 13. identical but the performance.. OOF. better off to buy from other filipino dupe brands that are more bang for your buck. but i guess you're paying for the brand right?
