The Story
Comme des Garçons Series 12: Green - Bamboo is a crisp, green fragrance that captures the essence of a bamboo forest after rain. It opens with a sharp, green burst of galbanum and bamboo leaf, then settles into a heart of fresh mint and tea. The base is earthy and woody with vetiver and cedar, creating a scent that is both clean and wild. It's a unique, unisex green that feels like a walk through a misty grove.
