Astuguevieille reminisces, "During the opening dinner, we started talking about perfumes. The next day, we scheduled a meeting to continue the conversation because Rei wanted to launch perfumes." This pivotal moment sparked the creation of Comme des Garçons Parfum, demonstrating their unexpected but fruitful partnership.
Astuguevieille elaborates on their distinctive approach, stating, "From the very beginning, the consensus was to do things differently - with our own imagination, our own way of doing things, our own identity." This captures the essence of their revolutionary intent in fragrance-making.
Reflecting on the creation of unique scents, Astuguevieille mentions, " ...I began to create them in series - the Leaf series, the Red series - before announcing my intention 'to make an anti-perfume, the opposite of a perfume.'" This indicates their continuous innovation and willingness to break boundaries in perfumery.
He describes Odeur 53, saying, "The resulting Odeur 53 would be the first perfume ever assembled from entirely synthetic molecules, cloning oddities like 'the smell of laundry dried in the wind.'" This exemplifies their avant-garde philosophy and approach to scent crafting.
