L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Vétiver
In 1992, perfumery was often characterized by very opulent, heady and oriental fragrances. What a surprise it was to see the appearance of a clear and very minimalist women's perfume named L'Eau d'Issey. Yet this essence for women immediately achieved immense success. Barely two years later, it was extended into a masculine edition. Nearly 30 years after the creation of L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme, Issey Miyake reinterprets this star essence to create L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Vetiver.

L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Vetiver, a perfume inspired by water

Coming into contact with vetiver root, it becomes a deep and mysterious essence. Its aquatic notes give it extreme tonicity. The man who wears this perfume does not hesitate to challenge conventions. He is made to lead an active life. He is a free and energetic man. Its woody breath, meanwhile, symbolizes his strength, vigor and natural virility.

L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Vetiver, a woody and aromatic creation
L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Vetiver by Issey Miyake is the union of several elements. The result is a perfume that is at times spicy, woody or more aromatic. Naturally, vetiver occupies a central place here. Sourced from Haiti, it is cultivated in an ethical and responsible manner. Its powerful sillage is amplified by the sharper, peppery note of ginger. Sage, meanwhile, adds a greener, more aromatic facet to the whole. L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Vetiver by Issey Miyake is a perfume with a short formula. Yet it remains all the more impactful. It contains 93% ingredients of natural origin. It is a vegan perfume, certified eco-responsible.
The very natural bottle of L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Vetiver
In the image of the scent it holds, the bottle of L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Vetiver does not mask its masculinity. It goes straight to the essential and is devoid of any excess. Its minimalist design has not changed since the creation of the very first Eau d'Issey pour Homme, in 1994. Only its color has evolved slightly. Its glass is now tinted with a light brown hue. Its cap, meanwhile, is made of ash wood. This glass case is available in 50 ml or 100 ml sizes. In the purest respect for the environment, L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Vetiver comes in a bottle made of 20% recycled glass. Its cap, meanwhile, is free of plastic.
