Comme des Garçons original perfumes made for both men and women in unisex scents.
CDG Play RED Notes: Labeled with CDG’s iconic red heart. The notes featured in this scent ‘play’ on the idea of all things red, from red cherry to red mandarin.
MONOCLE Laurel Notes: “We wanted to capture the same smell and sensation enjoyed while staying with friends in Batroun, Lebanon. It’s warm, inviting and at times a little sharp – just like the country.” – Monocle editor in chief Tyler Brûlé
MONOCLE Hinoki Notes: The inspiration for this fragrance comes from a perfectly still, slightly chilly spring morning spent soaking in a tub at the Tawaraya in Kyoto. It pulls together our memory of the mosses and trees outdoors and sharp notes of the boxy, hinoki tub.
MONOCLE Sugi Notes: A light, energizing and sophisticated fragrance inspired by the sugi – also known as Japanese cedar – which is a popular ornamental plant in Japan.
MONOCLE Yoyogi Notes: This fourth addition to the series is inspired by morning jogs in and around Tokyo’s Yoyogi Park. With its damp, sweet and green notes, the fragrance adds a cosy hint to winter months and a bit of coolness in summer.
CDG Original Notes: Eau de parfum is the original Comme des Garçons Parfum, launched in 1994. A perfume that works like a medicine and behaves like a drug.
CDG MAN Notes: The fragrance that caused crazed mobs to empty the shelves in Europe and Japan when it launched in 2004. CdG 2 MAN is a revision of the original 2 (in the silver bottle), taking it in a more woody/incense direction that are a mishmash of “manly” notes.
CDG 2 (TWO) Notes: Comme des Garçons 2 plays with complements and contrasts… with reflection and opacity… with mirrors and brilliance… with light and shadow… with earth and the energy of the sun.
CDG WONDERWOOD Notes: An Evocation of Exuberance. A positive overdose of woods, woody notes and synthetic wood constructions (Wood gone mad).
History:
Comme des Garçons is a Japanese fashion label founded and headed by Rei Kawakubo in Tokyo.
