Comme des Garçons Series 3 Incense: Zagorsk is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2002, created by Evelyne Boulanger. Series 3 Incense: Zagorsk settles into a heart of Allspice, Birch, Pine, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Cedar and Hinoki Wood. Comme des Garçons's Series 3 Incense: Zagorsk carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This is a masterpiece, polarising for its hyper-realistic portrayal of a cold, meditative Orthodox church, complete with pine forests and melancholic solitude. It's not for everyone, but those who 'get it' adore its unique, evocative atmosphere.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Also Works:
Casual Sport

Its subdued sillage and introspective nature make it suitable for casual wear or personal enjoyment rather than social events. The cool, fresh elements lean towards sport or relaxed settings, but its unique character means it won't suit every situation.

About

Zagorsk opens with a bracing blast of pine and cedar, like a stroll through a frosty coniferous forest. Frankincense and birch add a smoky, resinous depth, conjuring ancient wooden interiors. Hints of violet and iris lend an unexpected airy, almost powdery cleanliness, while a subtle pimento spice adds an intriguing prickle.
