parfums*PARFUMS Guerrilla 2 (2006)
by Comme des Garçons

It reminds me of tabasco pepper sauce. I enjoy every moment but not sure that everyone like to smell like very hot chilli pepper. Unique for my experience though.

My initial infatuation and the camaraderie between this rather dirty (not in the "good' sense as is the case with Lutens' Muscs Koublai Khan) fragrance and I has worn off like the factory newness of a now old and sweaty peppered pair of raspberry Chucks.

Pretty fresh(invigorating), fruity and gingery openin accords which in 15 minutes settle to whats is very clearly, a very realisitic accord of tuberose. more like the petals and not the absolute. lingers on pretty well and settles to a dusty, woody base. overall, i would call this a Tuberose based scent. if you have a collection of over 30 scents then you have better scents to hunt for. this is okay for someone who is specifically looking for a gentle, floral. btw, this one is very much unisex.

Also I get is a rosy berry and very perfumey scent. Nothing very amazing or outstanding. In fact, it's a generic feminine fruity floral.

Guerilla 2 is a quirky little fragrance that I liked right off the bat but then, I tend to enjoy off-beat perfumes such as Escentric Molecules Escentric 01 and CdG Peppermint.

It is hard to say definitively what Guerilla 2 smells like and heaven knows, the name is no help. However, from this I get a fresh green/slightly citrus fragrance that has a touch of ginger and musk. As it dries down, a warm yet delicate vetiver note emerges. Guerilla 2 is truly a unisex fragrance, appealing to both men and women.

Here are the notes for Guerilla 2: bergamot, pink pepper,ginger, red pepper, curcuma, raspberry, tuberose, vetiver, cedarwood, and musk.

Much better than Guerrilla 1, which is not a difficult thing to be: All they had to do is leave out Guerrilla 1’s raw meat note. Guerrilla 2 opens with a light floral / spice accord; the pepper adds interest to the simple bergamot / ginger opening. The middle accord is spicy, sweet and floral, and equally light. It’s enjoyable. The base is rather an ordinary woody musk. It’s not a complicated fragrance and it is light and subtle. The accords are creative and pleasant, but I wouldn’t call them engrossing or intriguing; they’re different; they’re very nice. I don’t know what CDG were trying to do when they developed this Guerrilla line of fragrances. The first one presented a butcher shop odor, and this one presents… well, it’s nice … yawn.
