Some fragrances have allergens that are absolutely worse when they heat up, as they would when worn in the sun. These allergens are usually limited in the percentage/quantity that you can use them altogether in one fragrance.
I know your collection is huge and probably equivalent to what 50 average people would accumulate in their lifetime's collectively. However, that is part of the reason a State of the Collection would be great to see. You could episodically segment it up into a series where you show parts at a time so it's not such an enormous endeavor. You could do it by brand or scent profile. You do this as an extreme hobby or maybe for a living at this point so I imagine you would know how to better separate them into categories than I ever would. With such an expansive collection, that has to be one of only a handful in the country, if not the world, your collection is far more interesting than most would be.
Refinement is the word that comes to mind.. This one is much easier to wear while keeping it clearly in the same vein as the OG. I actually also really like the eau & cedre. Both much easier to wear than the original while keeping true to the flanker status. . Issey Miyake frags have recently started to peek my interests.
Many reviewers saying Issey is boring and simple as a negative. The name is "The water of Issey" which conveys a pleasant lightness or "Essence of". Japanese culture isnt known to be garish/loud, so this fragrance line evokes understated, minimalist, beauty in simplicity with respect for natural elements. Some people dont want 12 notes 36hr lasting heavy fragrance.
Not sure why Issey Miyake has been doing so many safe fragrances lately. I love lavender so I have to try this before judging it but it would be nice to see them make powerful and creative fragrances again 👍
What is going on with Issey Miyake? They created about 4 of the best designer fragrances of the past 20 years in their flankers. Polaris, Or Encens, Pulse of the Night, Noir Ambre. They killed all of them off despite universal acclaim and demand, and then started releasing incredibly boring, pedestrian everyday scents for the past few years. Bois Arctic was pretty good but they killed that almost immediately. I'm not into these boring releases. Bring back the fragrances I named and cut out this boring trajectory Issey, if anyone from the company is reading this.
It could have something to do with Issey miyake passing away not sure but you're right another fragrance that you missed in that list of great fragrances is noir argent
Came here to post that. Lavender on me in the sun makes my skin turn bright red and itchy af. That's why I can't wear anything with lavender when it's bright sun out (my Blue Ridge does it... sorry Ash. Still love it!). I'm guessing it's something they put inside to compensate somehow. I want to test this out now.
Majority of issey fragrances have been underwhelming for me i put the sport edt as their best work in the fresher line and noir ambre is a good one in the winter line, the parfum is average too i gave up trying to find the rest of the winter line because they play hide and seek with them so clearly they don’t want to sell me good quality stuff they want to sell me trash like this air freshener quality lavender or the very feminine original with the yuzu note
Ultimately doesn't matter. Sables by annick goutal has water as second ingredient, lasts for 8 hours easily, and projects for 4 of those hours. Kerosene followed is literally a nuclear bomb, and it has zero alcohol and is water based. You tried though pal.
Where's that guy that said you only review old fragrances? Don't miss him, sotf, Lattafa Shaghaf, absolute d*gshit fragrance, I wish I never purchased. The notes do not match the scent or maybe they do but just the cedar, birch or whatever
Lads avoid this at all costs,I have to say it's probably the worst scent I've ever bought,stays around for 20-30 mins at best(after 6/7 squirts)I don't usually leave comments but felt compelled to warn others off this one!
I ordered this one a few days ago. Sometimes you don't need to impress people. A nice subtle scent for you only.
Idk y I didn’t think ash had a kid but I’ve never heard him mention his kid in any other video maybe I’m just not a true fan fr
His kid rocks Batman edt
He mentioned once that his son likes fresh and clean fragrances, although Ash is more than happy to share his entire collection with him 😀
yeah, same bro
He actually mentioned him once before in his BR540 review from like, 2018 I think
He mentioned bvlgari aqua was the fragrance he choose to give him
Miyake have some great scents. Wood & Wood is one of my favourites.

Recently discovered Issey Miyake Intense EDT, very much a hidden gem!!

Lemon and lavender. I’m getting images of Lysol in my head

Shades of Boredom Apathy Edition
Maybe this could be a good scent for relaxing or trying to fall asleep. 😴
Great review Ash! I will def check this one out. Lavender is one of my favorite scent notes, and I love Issey Miyake fragrances.
Love the cowboy bebop shirt 👍🏻

There is such thing as limited ingredients stock...or banned ingredients later on that are not allowed on market anymore!
@@kypsunrider5983 I was wondering are the banned ingredients the reason why colognes don't last as long as they did 10 years ago?
@Mooljim I doubt.. there are releases 23/24 that last easily 12+ hours...it's the quality of ingredients related to price more specifically !
Money happened. The blandies sell better as there are far more bland people out there, than there are strong characters.

Tried this today! It's nice, basically the same as the OG with a bit of lavender
Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day
I get rashes from wearing fragrances on skin while I'm in the sun. So this might be something to look out. Especially for the region where I live.
Love the video gents secrets stay motivated dream big 1 mill on the way
This sounds so good
This was my fav out of cedar and vetiver. This is bright and relaxing and semi sweet. Very easy going
Oh. And...cedar. 🤣 The tag line for this one should've been, "Wear this. Smell like a teddy bear." 🧸 Probably.
I like issey ..... Sometimes
I feel like not allot of people know about issey miyake shade of lagoon limited edition I had 3 of them I loved it very hard to find now
The fragrance can be phototoxic. Lavender oil can be very powerful for the skin

@@sorv5790 put directly on your clothes
Solar Lavender is on Aura. Le Sel Dissy as well but unless you want old spice swagger shower gel as a cologne stay away
Issey Miyake is so handsome!
He is my first love
This bottle design is unchanged in 30 years. Never change L'eau D'issey, never change.
"Where water meets lavender"... Practically sells itself.
Sounds perhaps along the lines of a less musky/more fresh CK Be? 🤔 If so that sounds good to me!
Hey Friends 😎
Great lavender aromatherapy body spray
Got my nose on this today, honestly the opening was a little interesting but it got pretty boring pretty fast.
Bedtime scent?
One question:
How does it compare to Ferrari Pure Lavender?
Does fragrance buy work in Europe also?
Where did you get the cowboy bebop shirt?
I wonder why they're deciding to concentrate on the leau D'ssey line instead of the Nuit D'issey line 🤷
It’s like the GOAT died (Issey)…left his daughter in charge, and boom! Watered down lotion for cologne…yeah!!
Son?!?!? Big daddy Ash!

W shirt
Of course he's going to like L'eau D'Issey Vetiver. He's a Vetiver fan boy 😂
It smells like Savon De Marseilles Lavande
How this guy can recommend this is baffling, smell lasts literally 20-30 mins after 6-8 squirts
For the person who did the write-up for this fragrance....You do know that water dilutes most scents, right?
Ultimately doesn't matter. Sables by annick goutal has water as second ingredient, lasts for 8 hours easily, and projects for 4 of those hours. Kerosene followed is literally a nuclear bomb, and it has zero alcohol and is water based. You tried though pal.
His batch codes always got a 3
Devil
Coincidence? I don't think so🤔
Where's that guy that said you only review old fragrances? Don't miss him, sotf, Lattafa Shaghaf, absolute d*gshit fragrance, I wish I never purchased. The notes do not match the scent or maybe they do but just the cedar, birch or whatever
You know, when I think lavender, I think of the sun. When I think solar, I think of water...just like Issey Miyake 😂
Sounds like another boring offering from IM
Boring is all they do now
@@Polyfusia their cold weather scents are excellent!
What the f*&k is with the theatrics, is this a fragrance channel or a vaudeville act 😂
We're almost at Infomercial, he just needs to cut a bottle in half with scissors.
Lads avoid this at all costs,I have to say it's probably the worst scent I've ever bought,stays around for 20-30 mins at best(after 6/7 squirts)I don't usually leave comments but felt compelled to warn others off this one!
Issey Miyake is always a hit or miss. Even the hyped stuff isn’t always loved by everyone. 🫠
Boring is an understatement!!! Since Issey Miyake died in 2022 , pretty much everything fragrance wise has been cack !!! 😂
