The new fragrance Hinoki by Comme des Garcons takes its name from the Hinoki cypress – a tree that grows exclusively in Japan and is used in the construction of the most luxurious palaces, temples, sanctuaries, and the finest wooden bathing tubs. The unique scent was inspired by a visit to the world-renowned Tawaraya hotel in Kyoto. It was there that the perfumers had the luxurious opportunity to bathe early in the frosty morning in the fresh air, in the legendary wooden Ofuro tubs filled with warm, healing spring water.
The richness of scents that enchant in the early spring morning was meticulously encapsulated in the unique composition of Hinoki. From the first seconds, it captivates with its rich, intense aroma of precious wood, and later envelops with scents of greenery, gentle touches of relaxing frankincense, and notes of woody moss.
The woody-fresh scent of Hinoki will wrap you in mystique and unforgettable emotions, which you will want to experience again and again.
Hinoki is magnificent! It has a vibrant, aggressive, and intoxicating opening, followed by a delicate and signature garsonov base. It gives a very green sensation. After several days of use, it creates a clear addiction. Oh my Lord, what do they put in there?!
