Issey Miyake takes us on a summery journey in 2022. An invitation to follow the flow of water away from the daily grind defies every imaginable cliché: the concept combines the most cherished Mediterranean memories of Dora Baghriche, Daphné Bugey, and Marie Salamagne. Using the exquisite corpse method, each perfumer worked after the other to create a completely unique fragrance, the fruit of their combined emotions. To visually illustrate these fragrant emotions, French artist Kevin Lucbert drew the main steps of the journey using his faithful ballpoint pen, his artist’s instrument of choice which he uses incredibly poetically.

Dora Baghriche's grandmothers were pastry chefs and she devlopped a passionate relationship with food thanks to their influence. Her first fragrance memories during her childhood are full of the scents of pine nut cream, cinnamon treats and almonds.
For Marie, a perfumer embodies both the craftsman and the artist. "A good perfume acts like Proust's 'madeleine'. It has the power to transport and the emotion it arouses is uncontrollable and powerful. It is an entity in itself." Marie is constantly in search of this magic.
Daphne errs on the rational side of excess and has no desire to change her ways. She is curious about the world around her, with a constant appetite to learn. She wants to experience everything. Her creations benefit from this approach and her perfumery reflects her perfectly: spontaneous, audacious and free.
