- Long-lasting scent
From Issey Miyake, L'Eau d'Issey Solar Violet opens on juicy pear, bright and a touch watery. Violet takes over through the heart, soft and slightly powdery rather than sharp. Iris closes it, cool and a little dusty, giving the whole thing a fresh, aquatic-floral feel with a woody hint underneath. Released in 2024, it is worn by women who like pale florals with light rather than heavy weight. Voters keep it for spring, worn by day and at the office, an easy choice for work. The vote calls it moderate for longevity and moderate again for sillage, present without demanding attention. A 3ml decant gets you through a week at your desk, time enough to weigh up the bottle.

The community verdict
Fresh and powdery, L'Eau d'Issey Solar Violet moves from pear to violet and an iris base. Most find its wear time and projection moderate, though some find it fades fairly soon or stays close to the skin. Its gentle floral feel fits spring days, with summer and office wear also working well.
