Comme des Garçons Red is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2012, created by Antoine Maisondieu. Comme des Garçons's Red carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

A truly divisive scent: some find Red a wonderfully tart, playful cherry, while others are put off by a screechy, artificial plastic note. It's unique, but don't expect a crowd-pleaser.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Imagine a basket of tart sour cherries and bright mandarin, dusted with a surprising kick of pink pepper and warm cinnamon. As it settles, a soft, leathery saffron emerges, entwined with delicate osmanthus. The base grounds it with a subtle resinous warmth from myrrh and tolu balsam, keeping the sweetness from becoming cloying and adding an intriguing, slightly metallic edge.
