Nuit d'Issey Bleu Astral

The new fragrance Nuit d'Issey Bleu Astral thus appears as a condensed form of luxury without artifice. It is akin to modern art, casting a new gaze upon the world. As its name suggests, it is a flanker of the essential Nuit d'Issey by Issey Miyake, delighting lovers of woody and spicy fragrances.

The softness of nights as seen by Issey Miyake

Issey Miyake is a very poetic figure. In this sense, he draws most of his inspiration from the heart of nature. He has made night one of his main subjects of choice. This is how his fragrance Nuit d'Issey has ranked as one of his best-sellers since its release in 2014. It transports us to the heart of an enigmatic world, delivering a boundless landscape underscored only by moonlight. Each of the fragrances from the house of Issey Miyake is an invitation to meditation. What is more, they are very often enhanced by the color blue. In fact, Issey Miyake even devoted one of his perfumes to this color. It was released in 2004 and was named L'Eau Bleue d'Issey pour Homme. It alone evoked the whole complexity and fascination that the color blue can conjure. Indeed, it is the color of water, an indispensable source of life on earth. At the same time, blue also echoes the sky. It is the emblematic hue of masculinity, the expression of the heavens, of space, and of a sometimes distant elsewhere. This is precisely where the new fragrance Nuit d'Issey Bleu Astral leads us.

The many contrasts of Nuit d'Issey Bleu Astral

Nuit d'Issey Bleu Astral is a highly nuanced fragrance that alone reveals the whole complexity of masculinity. Its opening is thus particularly invigorating. It sets the freshness of lime against the vibrant, spicy warmth of coriander. Then, the whole is carried forward by a leather-based heart. Thus, the Issey Miyake man seems eager for sensuality. This, in fact, appears as the guiding thread of this fragrance and continues into its base with the syrupy presence of amber. Finally, the virility of this juice comes through in woody notes. The whole is delivered in the house of Issey Miyake's iconic bottle. Nuit d'Issey Bleu Astral takes the form of a thick rectangular block of glass. It rises skyward while being split in two. Its base is transparent and ribbed, while its cap forms a thick, opaque blue cube whose color clearly evokes the atmosphere of night.
