Last night, Dover Street Parfums Market hosted a celebration of Comme des Garçons Parfums’ 30 groundbreaking years in fragrance, unveiling a special anniversary book

Published by Dino Simonett, the book explores the brand’s bold journey since 1994, redefining perfume with their “anti-fragrance” philosophy and iconic collaborations from Daphne Guiness to Pharell Williams. From their first creation, Eau de Parfum, to the abstract Odeur 53 and industrial Tar, Comme des Garçons has always broken the rules of traditional scent-making.

Their design innovation is equally iconic, especially the pebble-shaped bottle introduced with Comme des Garçons 2. Ergonomic, asymmetrical, and collectible, it became a cult favorite, evolving with the pocket-sized edition of Comme des Garçons 2.

In honor of its 30th anniversary, Comme des Garçons Parfums revealed its latest scent, Odeur 10, the 4th edition of the Odeur series.
