The story behind the bottle.
Comme des Garçons Series 1 Leaves: Mint, launched in 2000 and crafted by perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour, is a bold interpretation of the floral green genre. The fragrance opens with an invigorating blast of mint and fresh greens, creating a crisp and vibrant atmosphere that feels both modern and lasting. As it evolves, warm spices and balsamic notes add depth and complexity, balancing the initial freshness with subtle warmth.
Apply this fragrance in light layers — the initial burst of mint is intense and fades quickly. Allow it to settle for an hour before reapplying if you want a more pronounced base note presence. It pairs well with cooler weather but can be worn year-round.
