The opening of this fragrance is incredibly icky and sweet with a tuberose that has that bubblegum quality you can sometimes get. I didn't notice the rhubarb in truth but that could've been conspiring to create that pink hubba bubba opening? 611 becomes heavily exotic and heady with what I perceive as ylang ylang, but could just be the tuberose mellowing out. Also adding to this I got a almost boozy tonka/caramel base underneath but this is likely the sweet benzoin/vanilla and you do get a touch of licorice too. It's interesting reading the notes now and comparing to what I thought they might've been. Anyway...this fragrance does transition a long way staying quite floral but then drying down to basically a vanilla sweet benzoin which is probably my favourite part. At first I thought it was clumsy, flouncy, perfumery and overly ballsy in a Mugler kind of way. This perfume reminded me of the trend of this and the mini resurgence of late with everyone and their dog banging on about Byron Mula Mula with which this has some similarities. Opening hour or two was a bit rough going but then as it developed I really liked it, I'd say it's more feminine leaning for me.
