The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Marseille by Comme des Garçons, launched in 2021 and crafted by perfumer Quentin Bisch, embodies the brand's avant-garde spirit with a composition that is both fresh and familiar. The fragrance opens with a bright citrus note, which contrasts beautifully against a heart of white florals and powdery musk. This interplay creates an intriguing tension — crisp yet enveloping, modern yet lasting. It’s this balance that makes Marseille stand out as an ode to the brand's signature 'anti-fashion' ethos.

How to wear it

Apply Marseille with two sprays — the citrus top note fades within an hour but leaves behind a lingering powdery musk base. It's best for daytime wear when you want something fresh yet subtly enduring.
