In a world where concrete is ubiquitous, the mundane fabric of urban cityscapes, now it is given disparate context: the uniquely refined realm of perfumery. Here, the prosaic is treated as precious; stereotypes subverted. A versatile material finds an unpredictable form. An exploration of destruction, construction, and creation, CONCRETE is a fragrance where material preconceptions are deftly demolished, paving the way for something new. DESTRUCTION, CONSTRUCTION, CREATION Destruction: The richness of Sandalwood is shattered to reveal its very essence, a radically new scent emerging from its fractured form. Construction: New contrasts are created through familiar fabrics. Industrial synthetics pierce natural familiarity; artificial Rose oxide distorts an opulent woody overdose. Creation: Layers of resinous warmth are lacquered with metallic seams, built upon a foundation of Comme des Garçons’ spice signature. An exceptional scent created from fragments of familiarity, CONCRETE is Comme des Garçons disruptive approach to design distilled into scent.
