The Story
L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme Summer 2009 is a limited edition that captures the essence of a seaside summer. It opens with a burst of zesty yuzu and fresh grapefruit, then settles into a heart of spicy ginger and cooling mint. The base is a clean, woody blend of cedar and musk. It's a refreshing, aquatic take on the classic that feels both familiar and new.
