L'Eau D'Issey Absolue Issey Miyake for women

This sounds very good. I haven't seen it around. I think this skipped my country :( sounds absolutely Devine !!!

Elegant, sophisticated... modern, definitely a work scent, but a gallery owner work scent.

This is like two perfumes in one...the top notes have little relation to the drydown. It begins very fresh, similar to the original l'eau d'issey, then transforms into a subtle, warm honeyed base note. It's confusing - an ozonic gourmand? I like both stages of the fragrance, just not sure if I want them one after the other...

Lovely.. Have to wear this everyday..
Any other ones similar to this ?? As this seems to be a limited edition..

Ive been thinking since it arrived in the stores what it reminded me of. Now I get it: autobronzant creme. But actually I love the smell, not very perfumelike though...

You're absolutely right about Lys soleia! They have the same sweet creamy sunny effect although light and summer feeling fragrances. I love Lys soleia and I love issey absolue also. It may not be a wow! perfume, but it's very wearable and sensual together.

This is unexpected: It reminds me of Guerlain Acqua Allegoria Lys Soleia, which I love for summer. It has very similar sunny floral notes. It might be the tuberose that smells a bit like the lily in Lys Soleia. Eau d' Issey Absolue fades to a slightly generic summer fragrance though, and the freesia dominates the composition in its later stages. Quite nice, but forgettable.

Tried this yesterday at the mall. Wow! I've been looking for some time for a new signature fragrance. It has to be floral and elegant but also it has to have something sassy. Not too light not too overwhelming. Speak out loud but in a warm manner. Create a warm feeling, a beautiful state of mind. For now Miracle by lancome has done that for me. But then I had to keep looking again. Summer by Kenzo has brought delicacy and sensuality in my heart, made me feel sexy and inlove.
And yesterday I smelled a flavour that combined those two. I've been looking like crazy for a floral to really love,and this is it- pure and strong at the same time. With a hint of sensuous and romantic, blended together in clean and classic :) It really exceeded my expectations. Made me have that summery feeling in my heart, told me a story about happy love.
Not sure about the staying power, I want it so much though. Too bad its a limited edition...

I found this version very bitter and sharp. The SA said that it was Lilac... I haven't tried it on my skin, but on paper strip I didn't recognize anything from the original, it was like testing an entirely different perfume.

this edition of l'eau d'issey has suprised me... it starts very sharp... althought i can imell white flowers... its almost bitter.... then wen its settles down on my skin..it becomes so beautiful... its turns powdery n a lil bit sweet.... this was a nice suprise...im glad i bought it....

I tried it in duty free and it smelled very floral, very rich and sharp to my nose, I wish I had gotten a sample to try it again. So I can say it has a certain quality, it isn't casual, it is intense and golden it reminds me of JAdore EDP in its intensity.
I need to try it again to have a better opinion.

A "zen" scent. Definately suitable for work allthough pricey.

I've been wearing it for an hour now and it reminds me of Poême so much. And fortunately I adore Poême, I consider it one of the best scent ever made. This feels to me like a summer version of Poême :-). Lovely, delicate, sweet, "thinner" than poême. I guess it's the honey. Like Taliera said, a fresh plucked flower, which scent lingers through the room. A true comfort scent.

I get jasmin, honey and tuberose, perfectly blended to my nose. Not too sour, not too air-freshner, not too sweet. Glad I bought this one. I can't imagine you could offend someone while wearing this. It's definately noticeable but I would be amazed if anyone could truely dislike this fragrance. It might not be everyone's favourite, but even if someone doesn't like florals, he/she would be able to tolerate it on someone else. On the other hand, the fact that it's easily appreciated could make it quite boring for some of us.

I imagine a confident, youthful, optimistic woman wearing this and feeling extremely "zen". A ladylike woman walking through life with a smile. In my opinion not a fragrance for teens. Perfect floral spring-summer scent for age 20 and up. I don't know what the jasmin will bring with hotter weather though. It could possibly get a bit cloying.

If you want superspicy & superloud, don't try this one.

White flower's swords almost killing me...
It's very similar to L'eau D'issey Gold absolute...
Atctually, I feel similarity all every limited edition of L'eau D'isseyes.

Oh, I could be draped in this. Olivier Cresp has made another masterpiece! This is beautiful and perfectly balanced. It has honey and vanilla in it, but is the quintessential white floral. Immediately I noticed similarities with J'Adore, but Absolue is more delicate. And when I brought it home, to my disappointment it smelt just like something else in my collection: Marc Jacobs signature. However, I have decided not to take it back because it is sufficiently different, in the sense that Marc Jacobs is more "watery". Absolue is also watery (due to the lotus) but not as much as Marc Jacobs. Absolue is really pure, and because of the purity it smells a lot like gardenia. The note is actually tuberose - but I often mistake tuberose for gardenia (or vice versa). It also reminds me of daphne (does anyone else know this flower? I don't think it has ever been represented in perfumery). What is so exceptional about this fragrance is that it really smells like a flower. Like a REAL freshly picked one - not the essential oil version. IMO, nothing smells as beautiful as a real flower, as the scent is unmatchable, but this comes pretty close. Overall, I would describe it as soft, pure, silky and golden. Definitely for floral lovers. But I think it will most appeal to white floral lovers.

I love Issey Miyake and the notes of this fragrances smells good. I can't wait to try it myself!

I love it as it is a keeper to me

its very good

I love all the notes! I can't wait to try it!

Sounds Devine, I just hope it's light on the tuberose otherwise forget it.
