Comme des Garçons · Eau de Toilette (EDT) · 2002
≈ $100 · 50ml · approx. retail
Representing Buddhism and Shintoism in the Series 3 Incense set, Kyoto conjures a temple garden of cypress and cedar smoke with an unusual, bitter coffee facet threading through the dry-woody base. It is often singled out by reviewers as the most austere and meditative scent of the five.
