Composition of the fragrance
The initial notes glisten and glimmer just like the stars. First out is the fresh fragrance of bergamot, with a dash of pepper and cypress. Next, your senses get to enjoy woody accords of oud, patchouli and silky smooth cedar wood. This fragrance’s wonderful and long drydown enhances your masculine sensuality with warm labdanum and leathery notes alongside vanilla.

Story of the fragrance
The intense, woody fragrance Issey Miyake Polaris lights up your senses in the same way as the Pole Star lights up the night sky. The fragrance was designed by three perfumers: Fanny Bal, Dominique Ropion and Loc Dong.

The fragrance’s intensely captivating characteristic is mainly due to the ingredient oud. Oud is a rare kind of wood with an intense resinous aroma. The fragrance works best if applied to pulse points or if you let it disperse slowly from your clothes.

About the brand Issey Miyake

Issey Miyake was founded in Japan in 1970 by the designer of the same name. Born in Hiroshima in 1938, Miyake survived the atomic bombing he witnessed as a child – an experience that profoundly shaped his vision of the world and of beauty.

From an early stage, he stood out for his innovative approach to textiles and his exceptional design talent. Refusing to conform to traditional methods, he boldly challenged conventions – a risk that proved successful. In 1992, building on his reputation in fashion, he launched his first fragrance. Every Issey Miyake perfume is an ode to tradition, Japanese culture, and nature, expressed with simplicity and respect.
