The story behind the bottle.
Classique Perdu, launched by Comme des Garçons in 2025 and crafted by perfumer Suzy Le Helley, captures the essence of Rei Kawakubo's avant-garde vision. The composition opens with a surprising note of tomato leaf, which creates an unexpected freshness alongside blackcurrant and lavender. This aromatic green opening gives way to the heart notes of clary sage, rose, and iris, adding depth and warmth. A powdery suede base anchors the fragrance, supported by evernyl, sandalwood, and styrax, creating a harmonious blend that is both modern and classic.
Apply this fragrance lightly to let the layers unfold naturally. The tomato leaf note is bright but fleeting, so wait for the heart notes to emerge before reapplying if needed. Ideal for a modern office or an evening out, where its powdery base will keep you feeling grounded.
