This is my first purchase in this shop and I must say I was very exceptical about it … But woooow !!! The Fragrance Shop has just earnt my customer heart with the sample of this fragrance.
I spent 3 botles of the original before it got extinct and I still have one with a bit left. I compared them side by side and the only difference I apreciate is that the original is more sharp and spicy and this one is more lactonic and balsamic but still full of the same character. For me this makes the fragrance even better.
IT HAS A GOOD SILLAGE without being ofending. I live in Iceland and here is most of the year cold which makes any parfume less noticeable. But this oil wraps you for hours in a decet halo that will delight others arround you without giving them a headhache.
I am definetly going for the larger size botle, the body spray and the oil.
I consider this rendition to Le Feu d’Issey a work of art . A must try and worth every single cent you might pay for it.
ONE IMPORTANT ASPECT TO CONSIDER: this is an oil based parfum and it works different than an alcohol based parfum. Dont judge it by the first sniff just after you receivet it at home from the postal service. Please, please, please let it settle an hour at your home temperature and once you apply it wait some mins for the fragrance to get alive in your skin. You will get hours of pure delight.
UPGRADE IT, make a layering of this beauty with a drop of a good OUD or MUSK to make it yours and it will bring you to the extasis.
THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS OUTSTANDING by the way.

This must be a fragrance nearly impossible to duplicate, at least in oils. Its rapidly evolving smells
might need the alcoholic medium to produce the roller coaster sensation of the Feu d'Issey. As it is TFS oil has a pleasant fragrance, which captures the sharp citrusy opening and some of the woody drydown of the Feu, but misses its magnificent weirdness.
