Original Issey miyake l'Eau d'Issey parfumkat
I have used this perfume for many years and have not found anything nicer. The toilette version is not the same scent-and fades quickly; and I strongly prefer it to the newer "Pure" perfume by Issey Miyake (which is a completely different, musky, generic scent).
The original formula is getting harder
to find (don't understand why?); but is clearly still the winner in this line. I get compliments almost every time I wear it (20+years later). Men (in their20's-70's) in particular, ask for the name so they can buy it for their women. Thanks, Nordstrom for continuing to stock it.

Scent was not its normal smell
I normally love this scent. But for some reason it did not smell like it self.

Favorite for 27 years
I first purchased L’Eau d’Issey in a trip to the south of France in 1995. Since then, I’ve worn many other fragrances, but always go back to this one.

SO Fresh, So Clean
I love this fragrance. I have been wearing it for years and I try and save it for special occasions, but it never happens. Its light, but long lasting. It makes you feel so sexy and fresh. I love the way my clothes smell after I've worn it. I always layer my fragrance, when I can, with body cream or lotion. They last longer that way. You'll absolutely love this fragrance.

Love this perfume!
I have been wearing this perfume for 20+ years and still get compliments almost daily. This perfume is a well-kept secret!
My Nordstrom online and delivery experience was great - no issues and speedy, free delivery.

My all time favorite...
I've been using L'Eau d'Issey EdP since the nineties and have gotten more compliments than I can count. It is a fresh, clean scent and the peonies in it remind me of the flowers in my aunt's garden that she would cut for my birthday bouquet.
