Renowned Korean Photographer Launches First Fragrance Brand
Cho-Gi-Seok, the mastermind behind KUSHIKOHC, has officially entered the world of fragrance with the launch of his new brand, CGS. The debut collection, COEXISTENCE, features three distinct perfumes: “FLOWER STUDY,” “LOVE AND HATE,” and “BAD DREAM.” Each scent embodies a unique concept and design, blending artistic vision with olfactory elegance.
“FLOWER STUDY” – A Scent of New Beginnings
Described as “a scent of a new beginning,” “FLOWER STUDY” boasts a romantic and dark design, complete with a matte-black magnolia-shaped cap. The fragrance opens with refreshing citrus notes and delicate white florals, balanced by a cool cypress breeze. As the scent settles, warm musk and sandalwood create a rich base, enhanced by woody patchouli and subtle hints of vanilla.
“LOVE AND HATE” – A Bold and Sensual Blend
With a bold metallic design and a cap sculpted as a male torso embossed with a heart and angel-and-demon wings, “LOVE AND HATE” is a fragrance that demands attention. Its makers describe it as “a scent of love entangled in innocence and desire.” The fragrance combines green tea tree and pine with spicy cardamom and coriander, supported by comforting cypress and Artemisia. A touch of rose and jasmine adds a sweet note, while agarwood, incense, patchouli, and sage provide depth. The scent lingers with a sensual trail of musk and rum.
“BAD DREAM” – A Dreamy and Mysterious Scent
“BAD DREAM” is a fragrance that will transport you to a deep dream. It combines exotic spices like saffron, cinnamon, and clove with the smoky aroma of tobacco. As the scent develops, gentle notes of rose and iris emerge, adding a touch of sweetness. The fragrance deepens with the warm nuttiness of tonka bean and vanilla, evoking a sense of ecstatic transcendence.

Each extrait de parfum from the COEXISTENCE collection comes in specially designed packaging, priced between $79 USD and $85 USD.
