What does Comme des Garçons 2 smell like?

Ink and aldehydes set a cool, sharp fresh tone. Cumin and angelica root add a spicy edge, while cade juniper and vetiver lay a woody, smoky base. Patchouli, frankincense and labdanum deepen it, and magnolia absolute brings a soft, powdery floral touch.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, and daily wear, leisure and the office come up most. Masculine and feminine votes sit close together, so it reads truly unisex. Tom Daxon Iridium and Comme des Garçons 8 88 have a close profile.
