Evening Wear: The intense, warm, and dark notes, especially Incense and Papyrus, make it perfect for dinners, parties, or formal events where a sophisticated and memorable scent is desired.

Target Pulse Points: Apply to warm pulse points such as wrists, neck, and behind the ears for optimal diffusion and scent development throughout the day.
Moderate Application: Due to its intense formulation, a light spray or two is often sufficient to achieve the desired effect without overwhelming.
Allow to Settle: After application, allow the fragrance to settle and develop on your skin. Avoid rubbing your wrists together, as this can break down the scent molecules and alter its intended progression.
Your Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme Intense arrives ready for immediate use. Simply remove the cap from the atomizer and depress the spray nozzle to apply the fragrance. The 75ml bottle is designed for easy handling and portability.
This fragrance is specifically designed for adult men, as indicated by its gender: Male and age_group: adult attributes. As with any fragrance, individual skin chemistry can subtly alter how the scent unfolds. It is generally compatible with all skin types. If you have particularly sensitive skin or known allergies to fragrance ingredients, it is always recommended to perform a patch test on a small, discreet area of skin (e.g., inner forearm) before full application.
To preserve the integrity, quality, and longevity of your fragrance:
Storage: Store the bottle in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight, extreme heat, or cold. Fluctuations in temperature and exposure to light can degrade the fragrance over time. A drawer or cupboard is an ideal storage location.
Secure Cap: Always ensure the cap is securely replaced after each use. This prevents evaporation of the precious liquid and protects the atomizer from dust and potential damage.
Handle with Care: While the bottle is sturdy, avoid dropping it. When traveling, keep the bottle upright and secured to prevent leakage or damage to the spray mechanism.
