By the editors · 2 min readA 2016 collaboration between Comme des Garçons and Russian streetwear designer Gosha Rubchinskiy, this fragrance was conceived as a deliberate echo of Red Moscow, the Soviet-era classic, and packaged in a red box stamped with Cyrillic. Perfumer Alexis Dadier opens with buchu and angelica — both green, bitter, faintly catty — before chamomile and mandarin push it into something hay-sweet and faintly medicinal.
The drydown is the most familiar territory: styrax resin, patchouli, and Haitian vetiver settle into a smoky, balsamic skin. It avoids the powdered-aldehyde direction Red Moscow took; instead, it reads as a post-Soviet rewrite — drier, more streetwise, with herbal weight where the original had floral lift.
