Rouge

Beetroot can be sexy in a fragrance. Who knew? The beets have an earthy, slightly sweet, flesh-like soil scent. A flash of zingy ginger cuts through the earthiness before settling into grounding incense and resinous cistus. From Comme des Garçons Luminous, grounded, sacred. Rouge presents a world subdued in passion, in fire and blood, escape from every day, a window into a realm of ecstasy. Through deliberate overdose and rapturous expression, Rouge presents an unexpected unison. An olfactive congregation of desire. The archetypal associations of the color rouge are seen and subverted through the distinctly disruptive gaze of Comme des Garçons. Rouge is an encounter between religious fervor and earthen reality. The transcendental and the terrestrial are seductive incense entangled. With vegetal roots, ardent woods are set boldly aflame. Resinous depth is illuminated by beetroot brights. A ceremonial clash of elements. Released: 2020 Perfumer Fanny Bal Notes spicy sweet peppercorn, Indonesian ginger, beetroot, Egyptian geranium leaves, sticky incense, cistus
