Very strange this one... but I kinda love it!!!! Absolutely eternal on the strip and skin and clothes and anything it touches frankly. Confusing, bitter and razor sharp greenery in the opening, needling through a some signature heft, yet lightness of Christophe's creations. The rhubarb aspect of this stays strong and present, driving this perfume but it's no Rhubarb my love, this is more aloof, queer and modern.
Utterly bonkers creation from Christophe Laudamiel.
It opens with an utterly huge blast of green rhubarb, but this quickly morphs into something else - pistachio, citrus, dry grass, even a hint of something creamy and vanillic. Then the rhubarb roars back again before changing into something different once more. It's sweet and tart at the same time, and has never smelt quite the same on every occasion I've worn it.
It's also very persistent and strong, and will cling to clothing for days once applied - spare application is required.
It took me a little while to love this perfume, but love it I now do. Too strong for summer perhaps, but ideal for spring when there's still that touch of coolness in the air.
