New "Pleats Please" EDT by Issey Miyake is a feminine, flowery winner
Those who have wearied of the leathery "cashmere" scents that dominated the fall may welcome the sparkling new olfactory cocktail just released by Issey Miyake. Less green than Miyake's well-known L'Eau d'Issey, Pleats Please is an effulgent peony and sweet pea floral with a top note of nashi, a Japanese apple-pear. Perfumer Aurélien Guichard has managed to balance all the prettiest notes of "sophisticated" and "sweet" in Miyake's latest bouquet. Pleats Please eau de toilette, $66 (1.6 oz.) or $92 (3.3 oz.); at Issey Miyake, 119 Hudson St., 212-226-0100 (Sheila Anne Feeney)
