We hold five materials for it and they work as one accord rather than as a sequence. Seaweed is the lead and it is the reason the scent stands out: green, mineral and faintly briny, the smell of a tideline rather than of the sea itself, and almost nothing else on the market uses it this plainly. Oakmoss sits with it, earthy and damp, pulling the composition towards stone and shade. Ginger supplies a dry heat that lifts the whole thing, cedarwood gives a clean splintered dryness, and vetiver adds a bitter, rooty depth underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe box holds a 50ml Eau de Toilette and a 50ml shower gel. It is a short composition and it behaves like one. There is no long evolution to follow, no sudden turn after an hour, just a steady accord that fades slowly over the course of a day. Quentin Bisch composed it, and the economy looks deliberate rather than cheap. As a present it works for somebody who is bored of what they own. It is not a conventional men's fragrance, it will not remind anyone of a hundred other bottles, and the boxed presentation makes it feel like a considered choice rather than a safe one. Cool weather and daytime suit it, though it carries well into an evening. Two sprays is the right dose, and it tucks itself against the skin once the opening has passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIssey Miyake set up his design studio in Tokyo in 1970, the company was incorporated the following year, and its head office remains in Shibuya. A first store opened in Tokyo in 1974. The label built its reputation on experimental construction and pleated fabric, and it entered perfumery in March 1992.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Issey Miyake","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53306627621191,"sku":"ENG209970","price":69.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/MTgwbzk4U0J5YUo5N29EL3dpK0JaeTBTRTByYjl1SWZ5clhRU2RzSVNybDF2b2EwZ2NaVW9QZzRYV0UxV1VrdQ2.jpg?v=1770723723","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/issey-miyake-le-sel-d-issey-gift-set-eng209970","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
