Story & heritage
Dover Street Market records the BLACK concept as a 2009 response to recession-era negativity, followed by the 2013 BLACK Comme des Garçons Eau de Toilette.
The official product description keeps it direct: a modern dark smoky addictive perfume for men and women.
Materials & craft
Modern dark smoky addictive perfume, men and women can both wear it. White and black packaging with logo of Comme des Garçons Black stores. Black pepper from Madagascar, incense of Somalia, leather, liquorice, birch tar, pepperwood, cedarwood, vetiver.
BLACK Comme des Garçons is presented through the Comme des Garçons Parfums visual system: a stark bottle-and-carton object, with composition notes foregrounded as the product identity rather than decoration.
How to choose & style
Choose BLACK Comme des Garçons when the point is not prettiness but character: it works best as a deliberate signature scent, worn sparingly and allowed to read close to fabric or skin.
