Nuit d’Issey Parfum takes the moonlit character of the original Nuit and intensifies it into a richer, sleeker signature that feels magnetic and composed. A bright spark of grapefruit meets rosy heat from pink pepper, a supple leather and vanilla heart adds satin depth, then tonka and patchouli lay down a dark wooded trail that reads sophisticated and quietly powerful from twilight to last call.

Story and Positioning
Conceived as a more concentrated sequel to the 2014 Nuit d’Issey, the Parfum amplifies contrast by pairing luminous citrus spice with a smooth leather vanilla core and a shadowy tonka patchouli base. It suits evening wear and dressier moments while staying polished rather than heavy. If you like refined smoky citrus woods in the vein of modern, elegant night scents, this lands in that suave territory while remaining distinctly Issey.
Bottle and Design
The tall, architectural silhouette returns in a deep night palette, reading like black glass that catches a soft glow. A satin black cap completes the minimal geometry, the broad base sits steady, and the elongated neck gives a sure grip for even sprays. The presentation echoes the idea of light cutting through darkness.
