A dazzling fusion of organic and mineral, of freshness and depth. A shimmering rainbow of greens, from green pepper, ivy and coriander, to gunpowder and vetiver. A blast of green energy.
Perfumer Jean-Christophe Hérault
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is for close-up spaces where a crisp, unusual scent can register without being swallowed by the room: a studio, a train platform, a late afternoon walk through cold air. It projects a green, mineral edge that feels alert and slightly defiant rather than soft or comforting.
How to wear
Best in mild to cool weather, where its leafy brightness and smoky base can stay distinct. Apply lightly at first; one to three sprays is enough for a clean but noticeable trail. On skin it opens vivid and peppery, then settles into vetiver, smoke and a dry mineral finish.
Who it’s for
For wearers who like green fragrances with tension, texture and an unconventional edge. It will appeal to those drawn to coriander, vetiver, smoke and mineral notes, and to scents that feel abstract, modern and a little industrial rather than purely botanical.
Release year
2012
The nose
Jean-Christophe Hérault is credited with Amazingreen in the product description, and his work often leans toward clarity, texture and contrast rather than smooth conventionality. He is known for building fragrances with a modern, architectural sense of structure, which suits Amazingreen’s collision of leafy freshness and mineral smoke. In this composition, that approach reads as a controlled burst of energy: green notes are sharpened by coriander and pepper, then darkened by gunpowder, smoke and vetiver. The result is less a naturalistic green than a stylized, high-contrast one, which is very much in line with Hérault’s contemporary style.
Comme Des Garcons’s story
Comme des Garçons treats perfume as a conceptual medium: unconventional, sensory and often deliberately disruptive. The house favors contrast, abstraction and unexpected materials, using fragrance to provoke curiosity rather than to follow familiar beauty codes.
Amazingreen’s concept
Amazingreen was launched in 2012 as a green fragrance built around a striking contrast between lush vegetation and mineral smoke. The concept frames nature as something charged and explosive, with jungle leaves, coriander and ivy meeting gunpowder, flint and vetiver in a deliberately tense composition.
Extra info
Amazingreen is one of Comme des Garçons’ signature “concept” fragrances, built around the unlikely pairing of jungle greenery and gunpowder. It is presented in the house’s minimalist, pebble-like bottle language and has been described as an “ultimate green fragrance.”
