L'Eau Super Majeure d'Issey

Such were the words of Issey Miyake to present his very first fragrance, in 1992. Then, two years later, he created its masculine counterpart. Even today, these scents are still very widely talked about. In this context, Issey Miyake unveils yet another variation. Focus on L’Eau Super Majeure d’Issey.

L’Eau Super Majeure d’Issey, a blend of strength and purity

L’Eau Super Majeure d’Issey is a fragrance that beautifully captures the full richness of water. It mirrors man's fascination with this material. It must be said that without water, no life would be possible, which is more than enough to inspire one of the greatest perfumers of our generation. L’Eau Super Majeure d’Issey is a scent synonymous with contrasts. It combines strength and purity, turmoil and serenity, the masculine and the feminine. Heavily charged with virility, this fragrance nonetheless preserves a certain tenderness. L’Eau Super Majeure d’Issey seems to have been shaped by encounters along the way. It is a little as if seawater evolved and became charged with scents as it came into contact with other odorous ingredients on its path. The result is a scent synonymous with perpetual movement, polishing woods and plants to the extreme. L’Eau Super Majeure d’Issey is a fragrance full of spirit yet entirely balanced and pure.

When the sea meets the land

L’Eau Super Majeure d’Issey is a woody, aquatic fragrance. This time, it is indeed ocean water, giving off a certain salinity. Nevertheless, white woods also make up another major ingredient of this fragrance. Other elements featured in this composition no longer stay in the background. Sage and rosemary give it a typically masculine aromatic scent. Darker patchouli builds structure into the whole and adds a touch of mystery. A duo of black salt and vanilla amplifies the sensuality of L’Eau Super Majeure d’Issey. Finally, the whole is softened with amber and cashmere wood. On the purely aesthetic side, L’Eau Super Majeure d’Issey comes in the emblematic Issey Miyake bottle, revisited with a more modern touch. Its imposing stature speaks volumes about its masculinity. Its glass comes in a bluish gradient bringing together two opposing shades. Finally, L’Eau Super Majeure d’Issey is topped with an imposing brushed metal cap, as if water itself had passed through to sculpt this visual. There is therefore a perfect harmony between the aesthetic aspect of this fragrance and the scent it holds. It comes in two different sizes, 50 and 100 ml.
