L'Eau D'Issey Shade Of Sunrise 2019
A citrus opening — lemon and bergamot — sets a bright, clean entry that quickly hands off to jasmine, which arrives less as a heady absolute and more as a sun-warmed translucent floral.

By the editors · 2 min readA citrus opening — lemon and bergamot — sets a bright, clean entry that quickly hands off to jasmine, which arrives less as a heady absolute and more as a sun-warmed translucent floral. The first impression sits between fresh and floral without choosing.
Ylang-ylang, osmanthus, and heliotrope build the heart into a soft, slightly creamy white-floral cluster. Osmanthus brings a faint apricot-leather hint; heliotrope adds a powdery edge. It reads as a daytime-floral structure, polite and slightly tropical without going opulent.
Sandalwood and cedar close things out with a clean woody base — smoothness from the sandalwood, dryness from the cedar. The dry-down stays skin-close. Best in warm-weather daytime use, spring and summer wear, office or casual.
