Comme des Garçons 2002 EDT
Series 3 Incense: Ouarzazate
by Mark Buxton
Comme des Garçons Series 3 Incense: Ouarzazate is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2002, created by Mark Buxton. Series 3 Incense: Ouarzazate opens with Red Fruits, Anise, and Pepper, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Nutmeg, Incense, and Sage, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Musk, Guaiac Wood, and Vanilla. Comme des Garçons's Series 3 Incense: Ouarzazate carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.
This one sparks debate. Some find it a light, accessible incense with a cool, peppery freshness, while others dismiss it as too sheer, unoriginal, or simply boring. If you like your incense understated and spicy, you might find something to love, but don't expect a powerhouse.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Best Occasions
Its subtle projection and light, clean incense profile make it suitable for office and casual wear without being intrusive. However, its poor longevity and lack of bold character mean it's less ideal for dates or formal events where more presence is desired.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this
