This blows away any other rhubarb scent I’ve tried. My dad had a rhubarb patch on the edge of the lawn where I grew up in upstate NY, and this scent immediately transported me to a misty, cool morning snapping stalks of rhubarb for Mom to make a pie. It has the tart fruitiness AND the almost vegetal, slightly-celery-like green aspect of the rhubarb, as well as dewy green leaves and a faint hint of damp soil. It’s heavenly!
The performance is where it really pulls away from the crowd—somehow this has remarkable longevity for a tart, fresh scent. It lasts me through an 8-hour work day easily.
I’m nursing my 5 ml sample of this but it will be added to my collection when I run out.
