aaaahh. I don't even know how to describe this fragrance. I have heard a lot of people say it is simply clean and minimalist but i get a different smell on my skin. While it is clean, there is this...

I love this scent. I think it has some kind of aldehyde in the topnotes because the floral notes really lift off the skin. It is a transparent fragrance. On me, the floral notes only last for a...

I would say I'm a fan of very sweet vanilla based scents (Pink Sugar and L de Lolita Lempicka are my current favorties) but on the occasions that I am in the mood for something different, this is...

Try as I might to like this, just can't do it. Smells much too bitter on my skin. L'eau Par Kenzo is similar, but much smoother and more pleasant to me. For fresh scents, though, I'll stick with...

Totally love this fragrance. Nothing at all compares. It's crisp, sophisticated and minimalist. I try others but I always come back to L'Eau D'Issey.

This is the third fragrance in my life that truly excited me. I bought my first bottle of it in Switzerland, so at least some of my love for it has something to do with strong memory associations....

I have to say I'm bummed that this perfume, my all time favorite scent EVER, got a relatively low rating. Oh well, maybe that means I'm more unique than I thought. :) I can't really describe this...

This review is for the Edp. I really wanted to like this perfume since its description (watery, light/subtle, sophisticated) sounded sooo appealing....unfortunately I'm not liking it too much so...

I can't wear this because it smells like sawdust on me, but it's my mom's HG and she can really rock it. She has a really classic, minimalist style and this perfume complements it so well.

I am not a fragrance freak but this stuff is to die for! First i love the Cool blue bottle but what truely inspired me was this intoxicating fresh fruity scent! It's definitely summer in a bottle!

This really grabs the male attention. I've had guys asking me what perfume I was wearing (once a stranger on the bus!) I LOVE this smell and so do my sisters.

I actually did not like this at first. I purchased a sample and wore it and didn’t think it smelled very good. I have a really hard time with perfume; it is hard for me to find one that smells...

While I normally lean toward rich oriental frags, I do take a detour for aquatic/oceanic ones. My fave (and hubby's fave) has been Acqua di Gio, but today I sampled Issey's version and liked it a...

Really nice fresh scent, cirtusy without being too strong, kind of a woodsy floral citrusy scent on me. I don't like sweet perfumes so this is def more my thing. The only bad thing about this...
