Comme des Garsons 2 (for women and men)

Designer: Comme des Garcons Olfactive Group: Chypre Floral

Comme des Garsons 2 is a play of light and shadows, inspired by the Japanese art of calligraphy. The light side of the fragrance create new aldehydes, orange, mandarin and magnolia. The black side is ink. This unusual alliance is followed by the sharp oriental composition of patchouli, labdanum, amber, vetiver, Chinese cedar and juniper. Just like the first fragrance, Comme des Garsons 2 is a fragrance for a personality regardless its sex. It was created in 1999.

The nose behind this fragrance is Marc Buxton.

Very weird indeed. You know that kind of ink blot (rorschach) used in psychology? Some may think it is a flower or a dog playing with a stick others are sure they looking at a coupple of perverted siamese twins... This I think is the perfumed answer to rorschach´s blots.

It is wet black, inky, powdery, sweet, metallic, oh so masculin but no, so feminin at the same time. Constantly changing, disturbing, comforting, hiding, shining... Oh, yes I like. Or sometimes... not.

Staring for to long on the blot just make it looks like a blot, a blur, a mess... This is a perfume you shouldn´t chase with your nose, it is at it´s best when you just leave it alone. It has that in common with CdG 3...

Big bottle worthy, oh yes indeed. It´s a tricky little piece of art...

To tell the truth I don't understand the idea of this fragrance. It smells like some kind of mess on my skin, as if the notes were not blended together. On me it has the smell of the flowery essential oil which was added into a bottle of ink or paint by accident, where it does not fit at all :/ It is quite a disturbing fragrance, which does not work for me.

This is my 1st try on CDG perfume. and it's a love at first sniff.Very impressive.Modern and unique.The notes is complex and hard to describe,like something in contrast but can be mixed well in one bottle.On my skin,It's open with a sharp-cool blast and then come to sweet mellow flower with hint of green.Staying power is very good too.

Something in CdG2 reminds me of being a child in the 80s...something that makes me think of my friend's mothers, and maybe even of aunts and teachers that i may have had. I'm pretty sure its the aldehydes, as it soon fades and you are left with a pretty chypre floral that manages to be familiar and strange at the same time. As with most CdG frangrances, i find the composition delightful in its intricacies, its not like anything else i have smelled. Like Zoka, i have a hard time describing it! Although i do not wish to purchase this fragrance, the sample was fun to try on my skin.

I love this scent, it like a comfy jumper i put on in the winter. Very long lasting fragrance, so a little does go a very long way.

This starts off with a very aldehydic blast of top notes, (reminds me somewhat of the old Paco Rabanne Metal) but then quickly settles down to much more powdery, sweet, violets or sugared almonds effect - I am still not sure about this overall; I will have to get to the end of the bottle and then decide. Very long lasting on the skin, but also very distinctive - I think some people might find it rather overpowering, like Loulou, which used to prompt requests to open a window!

I love it. My girls love it. Even my boys love it, too :)) It's not everyone's scent type. E can't call it an unisex. It's too stronge and manly for women. Anyway, 2Man is a strange perfume, with a great longervity.

This is a very interesting fragrance, unusual and intense, I just can't describe it, very sensual, with amber, sharp and smooth at the same time ;o)
