The Story
Comme des Garçons Series 13: Fruit - Apricot is a bold, avant-garde take on the apricot note. It opens with a burst of tart apricot and aldehydes, then settles into a heart of jasmine and rose, with a base of ambrette and musk. This is not a sweet, juicy fruit scent; it's dry, slightly powdery, and utterly unique.
