Comme Des Garçons’ Message In A Bottle
December 18, 2008 4:07 pm

This month, Comme des Garçons is dabbling in the existential. Working off the premise that words, like fragrance, convey messages that can be interpreted and experienced in a variety of different ways, the reliably avant-garde perfume division of Rei Kawakubo’s design house has spoken, and its holiday message is clear: Peace, Love, and Freedom. The three words have been etched into a black lacquer cover slipped over the silver mirrored bottle of Comme des Garçons 2, the classic unisex scent in which base notes of ink blend with incense, patchouli, cumin, and vetiver for a woodsy finish with spice. “Silver Words,” as this limited-edition is aptly called, is intended to be a beacon of hope in flacon form—as well as a must-own collector’s item for true brand devotees.
