Le Sel d'Issey, released by Issey Miyake in 2024 and composed by Quentin Bisch, is a fresh, mineral woody fragrance marketed for men. Woods and freshness lead equally, with spice and green notes at half that strength.

The opening pairs ginger, with its zesty, slightly sparkling spice, with sea salt, which brings a dry, mineral, skin-after-swimming feel. The heart combines vetiver, earthy and grassy, with seaweed, which adds a salty, slightly iodine-like marine depth. The base is cedar and oakmoss, a dry, clean woodiness with a green, mossy finish.

Most wearers report it as long lasting, with a moderate to strong sillage. It is voted for summer and spring and is mostly a daytime scent. It suits hot days, coastal holidays, the office and casual weekends, and anyone looking for a salty, mineral fresh scent that feels less sweet than many modern blues.
