Discover Avant-Garde Woody Incense: Comme des Garçons 2 Man Sample
Embrace the spirit of the hardworking visionary with Comme des Garçons 2 Man, a woody chypre Eau de Toilette that reinterprets the iconic CDG 2 with deeper, more masculine intensity. Crafted by master perfumer Mark Buxton in 2004, it opens with a sparkling aldehyde blast accented by spicy nutmeg, caraway, zesty kumquat, and fresh mint, then unfolds into an aromatic heart of earthy vetiver, exotic saffron, and powdery iris—finally grounding in a rich, smoky base of incense, luxurious mahogany wood, and animalic leather—perfect for the confident, unconventional man who appreciates boundary-pushing sophistication. At Perfuum, we offer authentic Comme des Garçons 2 Man fragrance decants and samples, so you can explore this cult classic without the full bottle commitment. With free US shipping on orders over $60, Comme des Garçons 2 Man perfume samples deliver niche artistry at an accessible price.
As a tribute to the craftsman who loves his work, Comme des Garçons 2 Man evokes smoldering incense in a cathedral-like space—dry, smoky, and textured—with a unique "white smoke" accord that feels both ancient and modern. It captivates woody chypre enthusiasts and incense lovers with its daring yet balanced profile. This Eau de Toilette delivers solid longevity (often 7-10+ hours) and moderate sillage that projects confidently at first before evolving into an intimate, enveloping aura.
Fragrance Notes: A Bold Incense Evolution
Comme des Garçons 2 Man surges from aldehydic freshness to smoky woody depth. Here's the breakdown:
- Top Notes: Aldehydes, Nutmeg, Caraway, Kumquat, and Mint. It opens with a crisp, invigorating burst—like a snuffed candle mixed with spicy zest.
- Heart Notes: Vetiver, Saffron, and Iris. These add earthy, exotic warmth and subtle powdery nuance.
- Base Notes: Incense, Mahogany, and Leather. It dries down rich, resinous, and tenacious, with high-quality incense lingering powerfully.
This groundbreaking composition earns rave reviews in fragrance communities for its "dry woody incense" sophistication—smoky and church-like yet fresh and wearable, often praised as one of Mark Buxton's best, with comparisons to a refined take on incense woods like Avignon or a more masculine twist on the original CDG 2, standing out as a modern classic in avant-garde perfumery.

Man2
Soft creamy woods and incense smells beautiful and up scale but sits close to the skin definitely would work well in work settings. But I would not recommend it as a night out scent as the profile will not get you noticed. There are better choices for that situation
