A collaboration between Comme des Garçons and the Finnish furniture company artek, “artek Standard” evokes images of veneered white oak and cool polished steel, with hints of age underneath, perhaps even rust. The word itself, “artek”, is a neologism chosen by the Finnish company's founders to manifest the desire to combine art and technology, and the multitude of scent notes in the "Standard" fragrance mimics this ethos. An initial combination of citronella and anise gives it a sharp, clean, stark feeling; while its drawn-out, coppery finish dulls it with warming hints of sandalwood and tarnish.
Scent notes include: Fennel, Ginger, Lemon, Saffron, Cedar wood, Musk.
This is a unisex scent.
100ml
Note: Comme des Garçons fragrances prohibits shipments of their products to any address outside of the United States for any reason at any time.
About Comme des Garçons:
Comme des Garçons is a Japanese fashion label started in Tokyo in 1969 and headed by Rei Kawakubo. Reaching success in Japan in the 1970s, CDG added a men's line in 1978; and in 1981 CDG debuted in Paris. Ever since this debut, which was noted for its principal use of black and distressed fabrics, Comme des Garçons has been known for its aggressive and avant-garde designs.
Playing an equal part in the expression of Comme des Garçons’ values as its clothes, furniture, shop designs, graphics, and images are the distinctive CDG fragrances. Without a doubt, Comme des Garçons makes the most original and exciting fragrances on the market today. Often thought of as the 'anti-perfumes,' Comme des Garçons utilizes non-traditional ingredients to create complicated and rich bouquets that leave a lasting impression. They are truly in a league of their own.
