The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2010, Comme des Garçons x Undercover Holygrapie is a daring Oriental Spicy fragrance for women, crafted by perfumer Antoine Lie. This composition is an embodiment of the avant-garde spirit that defines both brands — it opens with a bold blend of black pepper and ginger, spiced up with rhubarb and mandarin orange. The heart notes feature incense and nutmeg, adding layers of warmth and complexity before settling into a base of patchouli, sandalwood, cedar, and vetiver. This fragrance is not just a scent but an experience that challenges the conventions of traditional perfumery.

How to wear it

Apply one generous spray to ensure the spicy top notes are balanced by the woody base. This fragrance blooms over time, so it's best enjoyed close to skin rather than from afar. Perfect for evening wear when you want a scent that evolves throughout the night.
