Over 30 years ago, Issey Miyake granted Jacques Cavallier carte blanche to capture “the essence of water on a woman’s skin” within a fragrance. This collaboration resulted in L’Eau d’Issey, pioneering one of the first aquatic fragrances for women.
In 2024, Issey Miyake introduces two new and intense Eaux de Toilette: L’Eau d’Issey Solar Violet and L’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme Solar Lavender. Serving as an ode to nature’s beauty, these olfactory narratives now commemorate the fusion of water with two innovative materials. This unique occasion celebrates the transformation of water after encountering the sublime, now infused with luminous violet and striking lavender.
“These new fragrances narrate a passionate tale of light and contrast— warmed by the vibrant rays of spring, where water harmonizes with the delicacy of crystalline violet and the potency of aromatic lavender,” says Marie Salamagne, perfumer of L’Eau d’Issey Solar Violet and L’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme Solar Lavender.
As dawn’s light unfolds the wonders of nature, these two Intensive Eaux de Toilette, tested dermatologically, offer an opportunity to embrace the dynamic interplay between water and matter even closer. They are designed to be worn in the sun, accompanied by suitable sun protection.
