Our take
What does A Drop d'Issey smell like?
A Drop d’Issey, launched by Issey Miyake in 2021 in a drop-shaped bottle, offers a tender, intimate take on florals. A soft almond milk and light rose open with an almost milky texture. The heart brings together fresh lilac, jasmine and orange blossom in a delicate spring bouquet. Musk, vanilla, ambroxan and cedar in the base create a clean, lightly woody skin softness. It evokes soft fabric, a gentle gesture and a sense of comfort, in a minimalist aesthetic true to the house. The lilac is its most distinctive note, fresh and slightly powdery, rarely featured so clearly.
