Comme des Garcons 2011
feminine
Created by Antoine Lie
Comme des Garcons 2011 by Comme des Garcons is a Floral fragrance for women and men. Comme des Garcons 2011 was launched in 2011. The nose behind this fragrance is Antoine Lie. Top notes are Aldehydes, Saffron and Leather; middle notes are Lilac, Styrax, Musk and Hawthorn; base notes are Industrial glue and Brown Scotch Tape. The fragrance itself is that of "an industrialized flower to go with glue, an imaginary flower from an unknown civilization" constructed linearly. The opening is composed of aldehydes and safraleine (a saffron-leathery material) moving into hawthorn, derivatives of lilac, flower oxides, styrax and musk and the illusory "notes" of industrial glue and brown scotch tape. From Kawakubo, one expects the unexpected.
