Composition
Launched in 2021, A Drop d'Issey is a floral built around an almond-milk and Damask rose opening. The heart blends lilac, solar notes, jasmine, star anise and orange blossom. Musk, vanilla, ambroxan and Atlas cedar give the base warmth and roundness.
This smells like a spring morning you want to bottle. Almond milk and lilac make it soft and creamy, damask rose and orange blossom bloom through it like a garden waking up, and the solar notes add this warm, sun-on-skin glow. Star anise gives it a strange, lovely twist; vanilla and musk make it linger like a good dream. It is tenderness as a perfume. Impossible not to like. The atlas cedar in the base is pale and dry, like a wooden deck in the sun, and the ambroxan makes it glow warm for hours. It is softness with staying power. Beginner-friendly.
