Cresp should be praised for this creation. I have only tried this once, but I can’t say I got rhubarb straight away, and I’m a rhubarb fanatic both making my own rhubarb accords and vetiver rhubarb compositions (like this is meant to be) I’m pretty obsessed to be fair. But I do really like this fragrance, so it probably makes sense that it’s in there. I can see how this has the bitter and tart energy in the opening but I wouldn’t say it’s overly fruity, it’s a very, very green opening which I got from it and that’s what is missing from the mainstream in my opinion, unabashed green perfumes for men. It smells a little like the greener tones of Dior Fahrenheit and really good citrus notes from good bergamot oils and herbs. It’s complex, wonderful, I had a feeling it might’ve turned a little violety, or something because it does have an aloof, floral quality. The drydown though to me is herbaceous, with a lasting citrus freshness and some earthy, mossy tones. It’s kinda a Chypre sort of, but it’s so herbal I’d say it’s an ‘aromatic’ maybe an aromatic chypre, I suppose what to call it matters not, but it’s distinctly a men’s designer release, so there’s enough of the usual, fixative agents to make it broadly familiar to some, look at the details though and it’s a fine perfume. I will be trawling TK MAXX and the like for a reduced bottle at some point. So decent! Mercedes Benz hey??? Who knew??? I’ve not tried any of these yet.
