In 2025, Issey Miyake Parfums is proud to introduce its partnership with Alexis Rosenfeld, founder of the underwater exploration project 1Ocean. Led with UNESCO, Mission 1Ocean raises awareness of the need to protect the oceans by showing us the beauty of the deep.
On the one side, an explorer, Alexis Rosenfeld. On the other, Issey Miyake perfumers Amandine Clerc-Marie and Sophie Labbé. Different talents, but with the same inspiration: the ocean.
Watch the videoFor Issey Miyake Parfums, nature and water are an inexhaustible source of inspiration. Guided by Alexis Rosenfeld, perfumers Amandine Clerc-Marie and Sophie Labbé took their creative process beneath the surface of the water to (re)discover the ocean and its olfactory unlimited possibilities. This encounter enabled them to invent the scents of these secret oceans that we do not usually smell, and to recreate a more intense version of the emblematic Eaux d'Issey.
“Underwater exploration is itself, in many ways, like creating a perfume. It’s a journey into an invisible world that leaves room for the imagination and pure sensations.” Alexis Rosenfeld, Founder of 1Ocean
Amandine Claire-Marie has created an intense, sensual fragrance that explores the mysterious landscapes of the ocean. A unique green Posidonia accord intensifies the floral and aquatic notes of L'Eau d'Issey Eau de parfum intense, while adding the gentle generosity and radiance of ylang-ylang and the textured sensuality of vanilla.
With Sophie Labbé, discover a vibrant fragrance inspired by the shimmering nuances of the ocean. The senses are awakened by the spicy character of Sichuan pepper, which intensifies the aquatic notes. The woody character and strength of fir balsam and cedarwood give the fragrance a deep warmth and texture.
The new L'Eau d'Issey Eau de Parfum Intense and L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Eau de Parfum are vegan and feature natural origin ingredients (91% for L'Eau d'Issey Eau de Parfum Intense and 92% for L’Eau d’Issey pour Homme Eau de Parfum). The patented cap is made 100% from natural wood, without any plastics, creating unique pieces. The bottle contains 20% post-consumer recycled glass, while the outerbox carton is made with materials coming from responsibly managed, FSC-certified forests and controlled sources.
Issey Miyake Parfums innovates for the future: the iconic bottles are now UNSCREWABLE and REFILLABLE with a dedicated 150ml refill.
