In case you did not buy the book Comme des Garçons Parfums 1994-2025 when it came out, here's your chance at a revised and expanded new version: "Comme des Garçons Parfums is happy to celebrate its thirty-three years of excellent and progressive scents and design. The entire collection of pebbles, series, special editions and collaborations is presented here, together with the packaging and hilarious printed matter. Never the same twice, never looking back! The second printing two years later than the smash hit cult book is reduced to half its size and reminds us of a radicalized Bible or similar.

[...] Half of the size of the first edition, thirty-two pages more, six new fragrances, new texts by Adrian Joffe, Denyse Beaulieu, interview Christian Astuguevieille by Emily Algar, Dino Simonett." $100 at Dover Street Market in New York.

Reminder: on 8/14, for National Creamsicle Day, wear a creamsicle fragrance, if you have one…
