Issey Miyake L’Eau D’Issey Rose & Rose

Rose & Rose is the stunning new intense eau de parfum from Issey Miyake.

Experience the regal bloom of majestic rose in all its joy with this glorious nectar which has been inspired by the concept of being ‘moved by nature’.

L’Eau D’Issey has been transformed into a luxurious, sweet rose scent for the modern woman.

Traditionally when you think of rose inspired scents you may find yourself expecting a heady, floral and old fashioned scent. Rose & Rose couldn’t be further removed from this notion.

Rose & Rose is a complex and elegant scent which is highlighted by a bouquet of fragrant, fruity, woody and fresh tones that bring a sensual, romantic and comforting sensation. 

The iconic L’Eea D’Issey vessel has been ever so lightly redesigned with an elegant tyrian pink tinted bottle.

The silky matte cap in the same rich shade echoes the velvety softness of a rose petal with the translucent ball tip symbolising a precious water droplet.

It is beautiful imagery to compliment the key notes within the fragrance that give Rose & Rose its intoxicating and beguiling aroma.

The fragrance bursts opens with top notes of spicy pink peppercorn, juicy raspberry and sparkling pear, creating an enticing and sweet opening experience.

Its heart explodes with a bloom of beautiful floral notes of Bulgarian Rose Essence, Damascena Rose and Osmanthus before base notes intensify the scent with opulent, silky Ambrox, Cashmeran and Patchouli essence.

The result is a decadent, warm and rich bouquet which plays with the classic rose element to create a uniquely modern and elegant scent.

Rose & Rose manages to retain all the freshness and lightness so closely associated with the L’Eau D’Issey brand but manages to incorporate an addictively sweet yet floral element which seduces your senses.

I would best describe this beautiful fragrance as intoxicating yet up-lifting. Modern yet with classic elements, it is a stunning, sparkling and vibrant scent that leaves you feeling empowered and elegant.

Issey Miyake’s L’Eau D’Issey Rose & Rose is available now and costs £65.

Issey Miyake L’Eau d’Issey Pure Nectar

L’Eau d’Issey Pure Nectar de Parfum is the beautiful new spring-time scent from Issey Miyake.

This delightful, fruity-floral scent is the third edition to launch from the iconic brand. 

Retaining the original concept that at the source of L’Eau d’Issey there is a single, rare drop of water in its purest form, Pure Nectar is a representation of the process that results in a flower’s precious nectar.

“Nectar is the ultimate stage in the metamorphosis of water, from sea to dew and from dew to rose.

 

A petal turns into a blossoming flower, yielding a drop that captures its purest perfume... its nectar.... and dew turns into nectar.”

Indeed its concept of a single ‘drop’ is once again reflected in the appearance of its tall, elegant tear-shaped bottle.

Its exquisite copper and rose gold hues have been purposefully used not just to create a stunning vessel but to reflect the radiant rose nectar within.

It really is the most gorgeous bottle, both in its sleek and chic shape and its eye catching, warm and stunning tones.

It is so much more than just its bottle though. This fragrance is literally like spring captured.

Pure Nectar opens with notes of soft, sweet, tender pear drenched in golden, delicate, aromatic honey.

This sweet freshness gives way to heart notes of dew-pearled rose petals, sweet and soft and instantly recognisable as a beautiful floral boutique.

Base notes of creamy Sandalwood then blend seamlessly with sandy and salty ambergris to create a succulent and soft experience while cashmeran accord rounds off the scent with the signature Eau d’Issey note.

I love the complexity of this fragrance.

It somehow manages to be both fruity and floral, light and creamy, bewitching yet breezy and undeniably delicately feminine.

It is a fragrance that exudes new beginnings, new life and in essence, spring.

 It is a beautiful perfume to look at as well as to wear and is nothing short of enchanting.

The delightful Issey Miyake L’Eau d’Issey Pure Nectar is available now and costs £77.50 for 90ml from The Fragrance Shop.
