Renowned Japanese designer and spiritually creative Issey Miyake has gone back to basics in a quest for minimalism and simplicity with his newest women’s scent, aptly named A Scent.

A Scent pays tribute to the poetry of minimalism, and was inspired by the fresh, clean smell of the mountains in Japan. It is a woody floral-green fragrance, with fresh hyacinth and galbanum providing the floral heart, while being enhanced by uplifting verbena and a hint of jasmine. It is housed in the most simple of bottles, created from an unadorned slab of pure, raw glass.

Issey was looking to create with A Scent a smell as simple and beautiful as the air we breathe. The result is a fragrance that expresses simple luxury with a harmonious and balanced blend of notes inspired by pure air.

Designer Issey Miyake fuses his spirit with an earthly harmony for life, and Issey Miyake Parfums mirrors the artists quest for exceptionality and balance. His minimalist view of blending ones spirit with the environment culminates in his creation of modern, alluring fragrances, and A Scent continues this trend of refined and engaged elegance.
