With a delicate blend of nature and technology, each fragrance captures the essence of pure beauty, transporting you to a realm of sophistication and tranquility. Four years of research and development were required to design this new format. With its apparent simplicity, IGO is an unprecedented innovation in the fragrance industry that has been subject to a patent application. If you’re a fan of the original L’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme, then IGO is made for you. The fragrance within remains the same; it creates an invigorating freshness by opening with an unexpected burst of juicy mandarin and yuzu, a Japanese citrus fruit with a deep, citrusy aroma. IGO cap: travel-friendly, lightweight, unbreakable, the fragrance bottle is ready to go. Able to hold 20 ml of perfume, the IGO cap is a mini format ideal for travel. It can be carried independently in a bag so you can spritz your scent whenever you like. ISTAY bottle, IGO cap: IGO is a two-in-one scent with a travel format that encourages you to go on an adventure and discover its iconic fragrance. With IGO, Issey Miyake is proving itself to be an innovative force.

L’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme IGO Eau de Toilette lasts for a long time for an Eau de Toilette; when we tested it, we could still smell it six hours after application. Although L’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme is designed for men, it feels fresh, juicy and uplifting at first so it would easily appeal to all genders. As the fragrance develops, it begins to feel more traditionally masculine. With the IGO cap, you can spritz your scent at any time on the go. The fragrance is the iconic Issey Miyake scent: an aquatic floral with a woody wake.

The water lily heart note gives l’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme a refreshing aquatic feel, which is warmed through by a dash of cinnamon and nutmeg before the base notes reveal a highly masculine presence as tobacco, amber, sandalwood and vetiver unite. Its design tells the story of l'Eau d'Issey: a bottle that transcends time and fashions. During a night in Paris, Issey Miyake sees the moon shining above the Eiffel Tower. And thus, a cone, a sphere and an extended design were born. A bottle that stretches skywards, topped with a ball that looks to be suspended. A blend of simple and subtle shapes. L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme offers the perfect balance of serenity and notes streaming forth. Its freshness endures and surprises with an unexpected burst of mandarin and yuzu: a Japanese citrus fruit with a deep aroma that pulses like a memory. With its extended, monolithic design, IGO pays homage to the look of the iconic l'Eau d'Issey bottle: a cone, a sphere, a base that stretches skywards topped with a ball that seems to be suspended. IGO is an exciting new take on L’Eau d’Issey that’s made for the 21st century. The bottle’s silver, ultra-lightweight cap can be pulled off to allow you to carry up to 20ml of the fragrance around wherever you are, while the 60ml base remains at home.

Miyake officially retired from design in 1997 but continues to oversee all the lines in the company. Please note that this cap is only compatible with its respective IGO bottle. It will not fit on the original L'Eau d'Issey Eau de Toilette. Innovation flows through the core of Issey Miyake. It is his belief that nature is the world’s best perfumer and this underlies every perfume he creates. L'Eau d'Issey is a simple and pioneering composition. A perfume whose scent evokes that of a drop of water on a female body. Heralded as a visionary in both fashion and fragrance, Issey Miyake’s launch of L’Eau d’Issey in 1992 serves as the perfect example of his innovation and inspiration from nature. The scent – light, floral and aquatic – was the first of its kind, and is Issey Miyake’s olfactory interpretation of water upon the skin. Meanwhile, the bottle – uniquely iconic in its shape – is modelled after the silhouette of the Eiffel Tower eclipsing a full moon.With its extended, monolithic design, IGO pays homage to the look of the iconic L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme bottle with an extended yet stable, luminous and recognisable design. For an Eau de Toilette, L’Eau d’Issey is incredibly long-lasting; you can still smell its subtle base hours after first applying. Miyake was born in Hiroshima in 1938, and was a witness and survivor of the atomic bombing of the city during World War II. After studying graphic design at Tama Art University in Tokyo, Mikyake went on to work for some of the most famous couturiers of the 1960s. A move to Paris led to work for Guy Laroche and Givenchy. Another move to New York brought the opportunity to design ready-to-wear for Geoffrey Beene. Miyake returned to Tokyo in 1970, founded the Miyake Design Studio and began producing women's fashions. Its design tells the story of Eau d'Issey Pour Homme with an extended yet stable and recognisable design.

We love that L’Eau d’Issey’s frosted glass cone and metal-look cap remains nearly identical to the original as it continues to paint the same picture as the original; the design has been created to depict the moon perched atop the Eiffel Tower. The Water Lily heart note gives L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme an aquatic feel, subtly warmed by spice. Meanwhile, the base notes provide a strong masculine presence with bold tobacco, amber, sandalwood and vetiver.
