Founded in Tokyo in 1969 by Rei Kawakubo, Comme des Garçons became an incorporated company in 1973. After its beginnings in Tokyo, the house presented its fashion in Paris in 1981 and established a subsidiary there. Its fragrance line was launched in 1994 as an experimental extension of its fashion.
Comme des Garçons brings its taste for disruption into fragrance: incense, woods, spices, mineral and botanical notes are combined in unexpected ways. The house favours conceptual compositions, often unisex, and a close dialogue between the fragrance, bottle and object. Christian Astuguevieille has left a lasting mark on the artistic direction of its fragrances.
Right now at Fragsplit, 1 Comme des Garçons fragrance is available as a 1 to 10 ml decant: Rouge.
