Comme des Garcons at Parfuma
Rei Kawakubo broke open the Paris fashion world in 1981 with black clothes full of holes and unfinished seams. They called it 'Hiroshima chic'. It was a revolution. The same spirit she brought to perfumery in 1994, with the launch of Comme des Garcons Parfum.
CDG Parfum creates anti-perfumes. Fragrances that do not smell like anything you expect. Concrete smells like concrete and was delivered in a concrete bottle. Wonderwood is the scent of seventeen different woods at once. Every CDG fragrance is an idea, a standpoint, a question posed to the wearer: do you dare to smell different?
Discover Comme des Garcons Parfum in Parfuma store in Antwerp and get personal fragrance advice.
CDG Parfum is known for fragrances that deliberately avoid conventional perfume ingredients. Instead of flowers, fruit and forests, they use ingredients such as metal, concrete, nail polish or dry cleaning. These so-called anti-perfumes are designed to surprise, provoke and make you think. This in line with Rei Kawakubo's fashion house philosophy.
Despite their reputation as experimental fragrances, most CDG perfumes are surprisingly wearable. Most contain, alongside the unusual notes, wood, musk or amber that provide warmth and depth. Many CDG fans describe them as 'finally a fragrance nobody else is wearing'. In Parfuma stores you can test them on skin first.
The most requested Comme des Garcons fragrances are Wonderwood (a rich, warm bomb of woods), 2 (an iconic synthetic musk), Blackpepper (powerful, pepper and wood) and the classic Series range. In Parfuma stores in Antwerp, Hove and Wijnegem, our specialists are happy to advise you.
Comme des Garcons Parfum is available online at parfuma.com with free delivery in the Benelux from 60 euros. You can also discover the fragrances in person at Parfuma store in Antwerp.
Yes, all Comme des Garcons Parfum fragrances are unisex. The brand has never collected by gender, neither in fashion nor in perfume. The fragrances are designed for those who dare, regardless of gender.
