Like a breath of fresh, ocean air and the scent of sun-warmed florals, Issey Miyake's perfumes are both sheer and lingering all at once, softly cocooning your person in ethereal notes that never fail to please.
As a fragrance lover and beauty writer, scent is one of my favourite topics of conversation. Discovering someone's signature is my idea of small talk, and while all brands and blends are a personal, subjective choice, there are a few that, if named, send my heart aflutter. Of course, any of the best long-lasting perfumes are lovely choices for an everyday scent, but if you were to single out one of the best Diptyque perfumes, for instance, I'd instantly trust your taste - and consider you very chic indeed. The same goes for a certain Japanese brand, which, in my opinion, is very underrated, especially where its ethos and nature-inspired fragrances are concerned.
