The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2000 and created by perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour, Comme des Garçons Series 1 Leaves: Calamus is a Floral Green fragrance for women and men that embodies the avant-garde spirit of its brand. The composition opens with green and aromatic notes, creating a fresh and crisp impression that feels both natural and unexpected. As it develops, musky and amber accords blend seamlessly into woody and powdery undertones, resulting in an intimate and complex scent that is both modern and lasting.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance sparingly — its intimate sillage means that even a light spritz will provide a noticeable presence. Given its moderate longevity, you may need to reapply in the evening for continued wear.

Bertrand Duchaufour

The world traveler's nose

Bertrand Duchaufour is a perfumer-adventurer whose creations read like a travelogue of the senses. Trained at Roure (now Givaudan), his work draws deeply from his journeys through Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and sub-Saharan Africa.

“The art of perfumery must be at the same time, innovative, harmonius, and “sent bon”.”
