Comme des Garcons Series 5 Sherbet: Rhubarb Comme des Garcons for women and men

Tart rhubarb, very fresh and a bit pungent. I like this and wear it not as often as I thought I would when I got it. Let me try to discover why. My only criticism is it soon fades to vanilla, leaving behind its originality and freshness. I still like it and I haven't had longevity issues once it establishes in that drydown. On clothes the tart part seems to linger longer (I'm rhyming everything haha) but nonetheless it is weak.

I believe this would be a complete hit if the rhubarb stayed more since it is extremely compelling. I love that part. I love the smell of this fruit and find that Maestrale by Profumi di Pantelleria has a better development, not as astringent but nicer and without fading rhubarb away. The added salt makes that one effervescent and charming.

These 30ml bottles seem perfect for the juice it delivers. I couldn't justify going for a bigger bottle. It seems more of a splash to my palate. Not having finished this tiny bottle in 3 years says something to me, however. Yes, definitely the vanilla ruins it for me to be completely honest. We need an edp of this without it. Come on Bertrand you did marvels with blackcurrant in Enchanted forest, now it's rhubarb time!

I have a sample of it. When I apply, it smells absolutely identical to fresh rhubarb, but with just a bit of sweet that softens the acidity. It really is what I expected, until 5 minutes after applying, when... it's gone. Entirely gone..
What a shame :(

Delicious! I love tart rhubarb pie (rhubarb only, not corrupted by strawberries!) and tried a sample of this. It's everything I had hoped. Oh boy, now I want an entire bottle!

Of the three scents in this series (Peppermint, Cinnamon, Rhubarb), this is the most interesting. Very rightly described as tart and sour, trailing off to a pleasant sweetness, but all the time staying a natural smell, avoiding associations with fake fruit or candy.

I bought this in the cream version, it was very long lasting and as I love the odour of rhubarb, I was delighted with it as a summer fragrance.

This was the exact smell you get chopping up rhubarb stalks - tart, green, astringent and very, very nice, until after half an hour it disappears completely. Oh how I wish that this had some staying power.......

To me this is more pinetree resin than a rhubarb and more masculine than unisex. And that's a really shame, because true tart, zesty rhubarb scent woud be so nice.

I really like this, but not as much as CdG 3 that it reminds me of. In Rhubarb Sherbet I think it is moore of everything, moore green, moore flowers and moore wood. The topnotes of rhubarb and litchi is pleasant, crisp and fresh... sorry enough they fade away quite fast. I miss the mysterious feeling I´ve got from CdG 3... this is much moore straigth forward and easier to get a grip on.

A really fresh fragrance, best suitible for summer and for both man and women. Stayingpower is really good, more than 5 hours on me...

I found this to be too tart and astringent to pull off as an every day scent. I used to spritz this on very warm days, but there is masculine edge that always made me uncomfortable. White pepper is great in eggs, but not in a perfume at least w/ my chemistry.(UPDATE) I've since repurchased this perfume. It has an energy and aromatherapy effect on me. It is tart and sour, but I guess my chemistry has changed because it does have a soft side.
