Comme des Garçons Rouge is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020. Rouge opens with Pink Pepper and Beetroot, settles into a heart of Ginger and Mint, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Labdanum, and Incense. Comme des Garçons's Rouge carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Comme des Garçons Rouge is a divisive marvel, a bold, avant-garde scent that absolutely screams 'unique' but might also make you smell like a well-dressed borscht. Definitely not one for a blind buy, prepare for unsolicited opinions.

Its potent sillage and unique notes, particularly the prominent beetroot, make it too distracting for an office environment. However, its bold character and strong projection are well-suited for dates or casual outings where making a statement is desired.

About

Opens with a surprising blast of earthy beetroot and a sharp crackle of pink pepper. This vibrant, vegetal freshness quickly gives way to a spiced heart where invigorating mint and warm ginger blend seamlessly. The journey culminates in a rich, smoky dry-down of amber, labdanum, and incense, grounded by the deep, slightly dirty earthiness of patchouli. It's a complex, evolving experience, oscillating between fresh and deeply resinous.
