Rhubarb Thief
Rhubarb Thief by Heretic Parfum is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with grapefruit, cedarwood, angelica, thyme, lemon verbena and carrot seed, moves into rhubarb, jasmine and cypress and dries down to elemi and oakmoss. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects softly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Grapefruit Bitter, slightly sweaty citrus. More grown-up than lemon.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Angelica Musky, herbal root. Earthy and a bit strange.
- Thyme Dry, sharp kitchen herb. Bracing and slightly antiseptic.
- Lemon Verbena Lemon crossed with crushed herbs. Smells like expensive soap.
- Carrot Seed Earthy, rooty and oddly powdery. Often used to echo iris.
Heart
- Rhubarb Tart, pink and green at once. Sour fruit with a stalky edge.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Cypress Cool, green, resinous conifer. Sharp and clean.
Dry-down
- Elemi Peppery resin with a lemon-pine lift. Bright and dry.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
