2 Man
2 Man by Comme des Garçons is a masculine-leaning eau de toilette from 2004 in the premium price tier. It opens with aldehydes, nutmeg and cumin, moves into incense, vetiver and smoke and dries down to cedarwood, patchouli and musk. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Aldehydes Fizzy, soapy, slightly waxy. The 'sparkle' at the top of Chanel No. 5.
- Nutmeg Warm, woody and slightly sweet. Cosy without being gourmand.
- Cumin Warm, spicy and unmistakably sweaty. Divides rooms.
Heart
- Incense Smoky, dry and meditative. Adds gravity to anything.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Smoke Charred and dry. Adds drama fast.
Dry-down
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
