Comme des Garçons Daphne is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2009, created by Antoine Lie. Daphne settles into a heart of Amber, Bitter Orange, Patchouli, and Tuberose. Comme des Garçons's Daphne carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

Daphne is a bold, divisive powerhouse that screams vintage glamour, yet manages to feel remarkably modern. It's a complex, shapeshifting tuberose bomb draped in incense and amber, demanding confidence from its wearer. Love it or hate it, you won't forget it.

About

Daphne opens with a complex dance of bitter orange rind and glittering saffron, quickly giving way to a rich, narcotic tuberose heart. This isn't your average white floral; it's luscious, yet balanced by smoky incense and earthy patchouli. As it settles, a velvety amber base emerges, wrapping the florals in a warm, resinous embrace, leaving a lingering trail of powdery, spiced sweetness.
