L'EAU D'ISSEY POUR HOMME INTENSE
Description
A fruitier, more colorful burst of citrus, evolving towards a spicy-astringent heart, just barely camphored with cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg and saffron. Spicy and multi-facetted, the heart gets some fresh air from the aquatic note of blue water lily. The deeper, darker, woody trail blends papyrus, frankincense and benzoin. A fragrance signed Jacques Cavallier, from Firmenich.

The intense odyssey of a mythical eau
History
Thirteen years after L’Eau d’Issey pour homme, a spicy-woody scent with an aquatic heart, designer Issey Miyake opens a new olfactory chapter for this now-classic men’s scent, with INTENSE. It was composed by Jacques Cavallier, who was also responsible for L’Eau d’Issey: ‘I’m lucky because I’m totally addicted to L’Eau d’Issey pour Homme. I designed it, I wear it (…) I knew what themes needed to be respected’ for Intense. It has been amplified, shaded in mystery, warmth and sensuality.
Range
Eau de Toilette 2.6 and 4.2 fl. oz.
Bottle
The prism-shaped bottle of L’Eau d’Issey pour Homme has been reinvented in a blend of dark storm-cloud gray and anthracite hues.
