Issey Miyake is a Japenese designer that has been renowned for his technology driven clothing designs and exhibitions, which have pushed back the boundaries of fashion and design. In the late 1980s, Issey Miyake began to experiment with new methods of pleating that would allow both flexibility of movement for the wearer and ease of care and production. This eventually resulted in a new technique called garment pleating and in 1993 the unique Pleats Please collection, in which the garments are cut and sewn first, then sandwiched between layers of paper and fed into a heat press, where they are pleated.

Issey Miyake perfumes are as unique and innovational as his fashion creations and have defined how people want to wear fragrances and also the aromas used in fragrances that followed his seminal L'Eau d'Issey for men and women.

Boss Perfume and Aftershave - Boss Pure For Men

PERFUME
This is the extract or extrait of a fragrance and represents the scent in its purest form. This often creates a smooth and round texture, which is hard to achieve with the dilution represented in the other concentrations of fragrance.
EDP
Eau de Parfum or EDP is one of the most popular forms of fragrance. Eau de Parfum contains between seven to fourteen per cent of fragrance oils and perfume elixirs and is the second strongest, and longest lasting means of wearing a fine fragrance.
EDT
Eau de Toilette or EDT is fast becoming the most common means of wearing a fragrance or perfume. EDT’s are not as highly concentrated in oils and elixirs as an EDP or Perfume would be and contain one to three per cent of fragrance oils. This impacts the ability of the fragrance to last and around eighty percent of the oils in an EDT fragrance will evaporate within three hours of application.
EDC
Eau de Cologne’s or EDC’s were first popularised by Napoleon. These fragrances are often constructed in a different manner to the traditional French Model and are formulated in one single burst. As a result of this process, EDC’s or Eau de Colognes last the least amount of time on the skin and can dissolve within a couple of hours. EDC’s should be worn as a invigorating spray.
AFTERSHAVE
Aftershave or Aftershave Lotions tend to be a more traditional means for men to wear fragrances. Aftershaves often contain a lot less alcohol because they are directly applied to the skin. This lack of alcohol content also makes their ability to last diminish and as a result Aftershaves should be used more as a fragrant, energising tonic than a fragrance.
