Ruibarbo (Acorde)

I expected the tart green bite of real rhubarb and that's exactly what I got, though it softens into something almost jammy on skin after an hour. Been wearing it solo on warm days and it stays bright without going sharp.

I've been layering this over a plain vanilla oil and it turns the whole thing into something juicy and slightly sour, like stewed fruit left out in the sun. The accord is genuinely versatile too, it plays nice with both green florals and warm resins.

I've been layering this with other scents in my collection and it adds such a bright, crisp edge without turning sour. The accord feels true to the actual stalk — tart but almost green underneath — and a tiny dab lasts for hours on my skin. It's become my go-to for that fresh, unexpected lift.
