Bujairami Summer Breeze
Bujairami Summer Breeze is a mineral aquatic extrait that captures the modern, oceanic DNA of Issey Miyake Le Sel d’Issey through a sharp salt and seaweed opening, a smoky incense heart, and a clean cedarwood amber base that feels dry, fresh, and naturally refined.
French Avenue Imperial Ocean
Imperial Ocean is a 2026 masculine Eau de Parfum built around sea salt, ginger and bergamot before moving through seaweed, lily of the valley and vetiver into ambergris and cedarwood. It is a clean salty marine fragrance with a darker woody base than the bright opening first suggests.
