L’Eau Bleue is an exquisite experience; smelling it transports you to a forest full of cypresses, very natural. Unfortunately, it’s more for personal enjoyment than for general use; 90% of women dislike it, but 80% of men love it. A mature fragrance with class and a unique body, with insane performance for an EDT (easily lasts 12 hours). I use it when I want to stand out with a unique, present scent. Warning: never buy this blind, no matter how cheap it is, and don’t even think about using it to pick up a date; it’s made for something serious and mature. These are the kinds of perfumes that have their own life and take you with them.
‘The rosemary of the mountains kisses her forehead…’ Like Cool Water, even though it’s green, the bottle and name confuse people and try to lead us to aquatic blues. Nowhere near the truth; this is the perfect definition of aromatic. Herbal and fresh tints that create a sense of humidity without any aquatic notes. Hard to explain by comparing it to others; it’s something at least unique. A shot of energy and vitality for hot and mild days.
Honestly, I don’t know where to start. If you’re thinking of buying this blind, DO NOT do it. Seriously. If you already bought it blind, you’ll probably end up with the same face I have. It’s a bomb of cypress and rosemary at first; the smell of an open field with weeds is more realistic than anything I’ve heard. I don’t detect citrus, just cypress, lots of it; if they’d added more, they’d market it as an atomic bomb of rosemary and patchouli, all anise-flavored. The anise gives it a vibe similar to Azzaro Pour Homme that I like. As it dries down, things get interesting: it literally smells like chamomile or tea. I live near a hillside full of chamomile, and it’s an almost photorealistic aroma. Open a box of tea bags, and that’s the scent. That’s the dry-down. You get the idea. I’m not sure if I want to smell like weeds and a tea bag, which is why I don’t see it as versatile as people say, nor as mature; it would suit someone aged 25-30 well. Is it as fresh as they claim? Less so; I even see it as quite a nighttime scent for fall and winter. Perfectly unisex but more usable if you’re a man. It’s cheap with notable quality and realism. I wouldn’t buy it again, but I’m not regretting it despite not using it much. Repeat: not a safe blind buy; you have a high chance of disliking it unless you love the smell of the countryside and cypress. It’s a beautiful but difficult fragrance to wear.
I really loved L’Eau Bleue by Issey Miyake. It evokes that relaxing, woody, herbaceous sensation of forest fauna, projecting a sense of forest freshness to anyone wearing it. It’s a classy, refined freshness that seems to bring life to your stride. Undeniable quality, authentic from the start, and it improves as it develops. Scent rating: 9.0. Projects well for two hours before fading, but it doesn’t disappear. Lasts about 7 hours on skin. Highly recommended.
A powerhouse fragrance that, despite being on the market for a decade, still has a dedicated following. Only a few niche scents cast a shadow over it, like a T. Ford from the Blend collection. It boasts incredible projection with just two or three sprays and a beastly trail. In my batch, the rosemary and Atlas cedar really stand out, lasting about 8 to 9 hours before settling closer to the skin. Perfect for fall and winter, especially in the evenings. The quality-to-price ratio is also impressive.
It smells like a concentrated used tea bag. I don’t know which one, those blends of tea, fennel, anise, and chamomile. It’s a pleasant scent, but if I want to smell like that, rubbing a used tea bag on my skin is more cost-effective.
Green, I want you to be green. More than ‘Bleue’, it should be called ‘vert’. Not a sunny green, but a dark one. If you saw Hellboy 2, the forest elemental smells like this. It’s a mature, different perfume for someone confident. I like it more in autumn and spring, though due to its potency it works in winter too. In summer, only for night.
It smells identical to Pinamar, on the coast of Buenos Aires. Where the pines meet the sea just meters away. That’s where I get the ‘blue perfume’ reference. There’s something maritime in the rosemary, two things easy to associate. But I think the sea note comes from the intense cypress.
It’s similar to Hishane Hacivat. Period. It’s probably the moss and cedar, the only notes it shares with Istambul. It has a very elegant scent. Give it a try.
It’s a masterpiece. I tried it in the summer of 2006 at Corte Inglés, and after that, it was hard to find another favorite. It works with everything in any season, though in summer or enclosed spaces it can be heavy; apply it about two hours before because its projection is powerful. Close your eyes and it transports you to another place. A solid 10/10.
I bought it again after 8 or 9 years of not finding it in stores. When I put it on again, I immediately associated it with Lalique Encre Noire Sport, a scent I discovered recently. For me, these deep herbal aromas still hold great appeal. In any case, the Eau Bleue beats the Encre Noire Sport in projection and longevity, at least on my skin.
The blue of the bottle has nothing to do with the contents. If you’re looking for something aquatic or marine, this isn’t it. It smells great, that’s undeniable; it smells like herbs all the time; honestly, I don’t find the woody note listed as the main accord. The rosemary is very present. The trail is low and longevity is too, with one exception: I wear it in the morning and go to the gym at night; suddenly, when it seemed faded, bam! New bursts of scent appear. The price is good, but for that price or less, there might be better options in Zara; I think the fragrance isn’t quite up to the brand’s level.
I recommend it for women. It doesn’t smell feminine at all, but on a woman’s skin, it’s delicious. If you’re an open-minded woman and don’t mind what marketing says (‘pour homme’), you’ll love this perfume. It’s one of my favorites for a long time. It’s powerful and aromatic, lasts a long time on skin (about 7 or 8 hours), and if it lands on your clothes, you won’t even believe it. You’ll receive compliments. It seems discontinued, but you can still find it at a good price.
Amazing perfume; it doesn’t resemble anything else I’ve ever heard. It’s hard to describe because it has a rare scent, just as rare as it is charming. It might seem strong to many people at first, but after 15 minutes, its magic kicks in, and it becomes addictive.
The Bleu, honestly, doesn’t convey anything blue. It’s a very original scent, a key piece of modern perfumery. I wanted to buy it in 2007, but my nose wasn’t ready to move beyond the concept of a different kind of perfume, which is exactly what the Bleu de Issey Miyake conveys. Now that I want to smell it, or maybe try it, it’s completely gone. A real shame.
It smells like a dry summer forest floor under strong sun—very green, with resinous shrubs and aromatic herbs. At first, it was a bit complicated, but after macerating it for a few months, it has notable longevity and potency. It smells like maquis. Very special.
The Bleu is green, very green. It smells like the mountains, cypress, and a forest… with patchouli in the background. I’ve never heard anything this green. It’s not a common scent, not for everyone, and definitely not something to buy blind. It’s powerful, long-lasting, projects well, and is always present without being tiring. I’ve been using it sporadically for over a year, mostly when heading out to the countryside, and today, suddenly, it moved me at the office. Delightful waves keep hitting me; it smells amazing (before, it just seemed curious). Maybe the mistake was wearing it in the country; it feels like a cologne for when you want to feel in the forest. Now I’m completely won over, to the point where I had to write this.
I’m smelling it for the second time, and it reminds me a lot of AdG Profumo, but much greener.
This is exactly what I look for in a designer scent: simple yet original, and it performs incredibly well on my skin. It opens green, citrusy, and aromatic, then transitions into woods and florals, eventually revealing moss. From start to finish, it’s green—like a damp forest after a light rain on a sunny but cool day. That forest scent transports me right there. I keep it in my collection; its price, aroma, and performance speak for themselves.
I own both, the Bleu de Chanel and the original. The original projects more, has a better trail, and lasts longer; you can really smell the rosemary. The Fraiche is softer, with more contained projection and trail, lasting about 5 or 6 hours.
Incredibly mysterious fragrance, with an intense and strong opening. It’s a fougère… It has citrus notes, but they aren’t immediately visible like in a sparkling summer scent; you have to wait a bit after the initial impact to see how they blend with a dark forest musk, herbal (but not grassy), creating an almost murky, sweet (that floral bomb isn’t free) and very green scent. As several commenters say, to enjoy it properly and avoid false impressions, let it settle for 40 minutes to an hour, where it transforms and you can start appreciating its complexity. The fixative, longevity, and trail are sublime. Warning: it’s not for everyone, and definitely not for blind buys. In my opinion, it’s not for any occasion; it lacks versatility and suits formal or sophisticated evening settings best. I wouldn’t wear it to the beach, the gym, or in the middle of summer.
What a beautiful perfume. Unfortunately discontinued. Its bottle should be green to match the composition. Definitely a designer scent leaning towards niche. A unique and distinctive aroma compared to commercial ones. Without a doubt, it’s in the top 3 of Issey Miyake perfumes. For a Japanese brand, it’s not subtle at all, unlike the scents the Japanese public usually enjoys. I had the fortune of visiting that country, and this perfume represents the wild side of their forests and untamed nature. It’s a gorgeous and striking composition. If you can get your hands on it, you won’t regret it. A 10/10.
I’m still studying it; I miraculously got my hands on it at the end of 2023. It has a super peculiar and ultra-powerful scent. Best for special, standout occasions. I’ll share that you shouldn’t buy it blind unless you’re interested as a curiosity, dedicate time to perfumery, and, given its discontinuation, grab a cheap bottle to test it; in that case, yes. But don’t use it as a signature scent; it’s a rare find. Definitely not for gifting. Not very versatile, unlike its younger sibling L’Eau Bleue d’Issey Eau Fraiche. It’s a unique, sophisticated scent ahead of its time (2005). Take your time studying it.
It’s a scent that needs time to digest, featuring very spicy and mossy notes. Not suitable for hot places or climates; it smells cloying to me and isn’t for young people, though it is a luxury for older folks. It’s a performance beast, lasting over 12 hours with a trail that spans several meters. I don’t recommend buying it blind or on impulse; give it time to adapt. If you love earthy or mossy aromas, this is the one.
A new old friend. It smells a lot like the original Tommy Hilfiger. It’s a fresh green scent with rosemary and cinnamon. In today’s terms, this would be classified as niche. I can wear it for the rest of my life. Recommended for true lovers of delicious scents.
Very well-constructed fragrance, in a classic style, with many notes that complement each other. Quite linear but with varied nuances: herbal, aromatic, luminous, though with a slightly heavy base. Less suitable for heat; I see it as versatile, with its ideal moment being cool days. Performance is decent—not a beast, but it lasts well on skin. From what I’ve read, it suffers the same fate as Encre Noir: those who don’t like green aromas reject it, but if you’re on their side, I can’t recommend it enough.
A masterpiece. There’s nothing like Bleue—it’s greener than anything else. Very vegetal, very masculine, perfect for any weather, and it doesn’t get tiring. If you see it, buy it.
Excellent fragrance; the only downside is that they’ve discontinued it.
I’ve been wearing this fragrance for 17 years. Luckily, I bought two bottles on sale and I still have some left from the second one. I think it’s spectacular. Today they gifted me The Noir 29, and it reminded me a lot of this one. The N29 is very rich, but I prefer Bleue d’Issey. It’s powerful, very masculine, and timeless.
What a fragrance—the opposite of the bottle’s color. I sprayed it three times last night and it was still noticeable this morning, which surprises me since it’s never been a beast. They’re still releasing batches from a year ago; if you find it, don’t let it slip away. It brings more satisfaction than 90% of designer scents today.
From least to most. I found it five years ago and didn’t hesitate to buy it. I only use it during this season, on summer afternoons, with the arrival of the second half of August in the Mediterranean and the thermometer finally taking a breath. At first, the herbal notes overwhelmed me. Over time, I’ve appreciated its complexity. It’s fascinating how it changes registers and winds between green, herbal, and citrus notes without being typically citrusy or ‘lemony,’ nor aquatic with an overload of calone. The blue color of the bottle can be misleading. I like it for summer nights. Different from almost everything; certainly, I enjoy it much more than the average, monotonous perfumery landscape of today.
I bought this fragrance encouraged by the good reviews. After trying it, I admit it’s not bad, but I stick with the classic L’eau d’Issey Pour Homme. Since 1994, a scent you never get tired of smelling. For anyone considering buying it, I prefer the other one.
A perfume faithful to the Issey Miyake signature, with a complexity ranging from green to dry grass and a bit of citrus. I liked it a lot, but I don’t recommend buying it blindly.
L’Eau Bleue d’Issey Pour Homme is aromatic, herbal, and sweet, ideal for intermediate climates (a cool night or mid-season evening) with very good longevity. Its scent is original and escapes the ‘blue’ trends. On my skin, it has an intense mentholated opening that quickly gets covered by ferns and herbs. It can become very intense and piercing, so measure your sprays and avoid using it in enclosed spaces. Highly recommended. Its dry down feels sensual, with a balance between herbal, spicy, and sweet notes. Good performance and reasonable price. If you want to smell different without losing attraction, it’s a great option.
Having tried others from the house, I bought this blindly due to the contrast between the name and the notes. The surprise was huge: a green, aromatic, and captivating experience from start to finish. No bright citrus or typical openings, not even the ones declared here. What I notice is an air of the countryside: moss, broom, lavender. Like squeezing dried chamomile between your hands: a herbal, oily sweetness with character and comfort. Its complexity is natural, with a mature personality. It’s not a ‘pristine’ perfume, but a green scent with a soul that evolves into woody nuances. The name remains a mystery, perhaps that’s the point: the blue according to Issey. Compared to other creations, the longevity surprises: solid and more than worthy. Perfect for temperate climates, though its rarity makes it versatile; I enjoy it on summer nights. Personally, I perceive it as unisex: it would work equally well on female skin despite being labeled pour homme. Since it’s discontinued, it can still be found. A jewel with character and distinction.
Intense herbal opening, slightly mentholated, which fades quickly in potency and leaves a very green, rich, detailed, and sensual fragrance. It has good longevity close to the skin.
It should come in a green bottle, because it doesn’t feel so ‘blue’ and not in a bad way. It has a certain base of the classic L’eau d’Issey with more green, herbal, and woody notes. Recommended for casual settings or even the office in summer. I only received one compliment when I wore it, but it didn’t offend anyone.
I’d say it reminds me more of L’Eau Verte d’Issey because it has nothing to do with blue. An absolute work of art, one of the brand’s best alongside the original. Spectacular for heat, elegant, and super fresh. The opening is a festival; to me, it smells like a tea bag with lemon squeezed on top. The only downside is the longevity, though it’s decent. I challenge anyone to find something better for 30 euros in 75ml. It’s a shame it’s discontinued.
They describe this poetically here, like ‘stepping into a cypress forest,’ but honestly, it smells like a typical blue fragrance to me, similar to Polo Blue or Aqua di Gio. The profile is quite generic. However, the performance is lacking according to the stats on this site.
Keep it brief: this is the Costa Azzurra Parfum youth version. This one is perfect for daily wear; the original feels a bit too formal, but this covers all the bases.
