Infusion de Rhubarbe

This scent is absolutely addicting. The rhubarb is absolutely wet, sweet, and juicy with this one but what makes it unique, and undeniably a love for me, is the fizzy soda-like quality to its texture. The green mandarin makes the rhubarb so fresh and tart. An ideal scent for spring and summer, pure sweet + fruity. I haven't smelled other rhubarb-based scents so I can't compare across fragrances but this makes me want to get other rhubarb scents! Bought the full size (on sale) after smelling a travel size randomly in Sephora and have worn it extensively throughout the summer. Might not hold up longevity-wise against super sweaty/active days (biking in the sun, 30+ deg heat, travel days) but i love the scent so much it doesn't matter to me. Lasts decently in more chill summer days and projects moderately i think.

I've loved many rhubarb fragrances. Ricci Ricci was my high school sweetheart. Most recently, I've found myself involved with Pony Boy by Jorum Studio. Prada's Infusion de Rhubarbe is the latest in my line of rhubarb crushes. Rhubarb, when done well, feels exactly like the vibe I want to embody, at least on some days: playful, effervescent, existing in contradictions (in rhubarb's case: between sweet and sour, candied pink and vegetal green). This one especially is like fizzy pink rhubarb soda, and less sweetened than you'd expect it to be. The citrus emphasizes the green aspects of rhubarb making it mouthwateringly tart. The bottle is especially charming irl. What's not to love?

Well, this perfume is an immediate winner. I think the sillage, the longevity is immense. One thing that struck me odd is how it was super fresh in the beginning then it turned sweet, and after a few hours, it became more tangy skin scent rhubarb that is exactly like the original rhubarb. It is crazy to find something so beautiful that smells like real rhubarb and reminds one of summer. This is a definite twin to Hermes' cologne, and honestly, this twin is better in so many ways. It has more depth to it and stays on your skin for 6 hours. In the store, I wrote down that it gave me a fresh, fruity, green smell. This is irresistible in a sensual way but also playful. I love it

On my skin the opening was surprisingly green, with it smelling just like a fresh cut stalk of rhubarb straight from the garden. Then it starts drying down into a beautifully light jammy scent. It stays fruity, but becomes sweeter whilst keeping just enough of the greeness to keep it light and bright, without it ever becoming sickeningly sweet. It's a really pretty, well balanced, super easy to wear scent that isn't going to overpower anyone. If you're looking for something to announce your arrival to a room, this isn't it. But if you want something you can wear to work without gassing your colleagues, this could be the one.

So fresh, so cute, so pretty, so clean, so perfect for spring and summer. I love it. Such a lovely bright perfume. I love the rhubarb note in this one. Brings just the right amount of bitter sweet zesty-ness. My favourite of this line. As it's more of a lighter perfume the sillage and performance is on the moderate side. But I didn't expect it to be more than that. It's more of a refreshing perfume for a quick spritz of happiness. Lovely stuff!
