Wonderoud

Comme des Garçons · Eau de Parfum (EDP) · 2014

≈ $130 · 50ml · approx. retail

A smoother, more wearable companion to Wonderwood, Wonderoud layers Texas cedar and oud wood over Haitian vetiver and Australian sandalwood for a rounder, less aggressive take on CDG's woody register. Reviewers frequently note it as one of the more approachable entries in a catalogue built on deliberately difficult compositions.
