Rhubarb Thief is not a sweet rhubarb scent but a fragrance with bite: green, herbaceous, tart, and lively.
The scent opens green, cool, and slightly bitter with grapefruit peel, cedar, angelica, thyme, verbena, and carrot seed. It feels cool, aromatic, and slightly rough, almost like a stroll through a garden at dusk. At the center is rhubarb, crisp and tart, more vegetal than fruity. Pink Jasmine adds a delicate softness without smoothing out the green tension, while cypress gives the composition a dry, elegant line. Elemi and oakmoss provide depth, earthiness, and a subtle mossy finish in the drydown.
- Top note: Grapefruit peel, Cedar, Angelica, Thyme, Verbena, Carrot seed
- Heart note: Rhubarb, Pink Jasmine, Cypress
- Base note: Elemi, Oakmoss
Behind Rhubarb Thief is the idea of an unusual perfumer: Monsieur Lapin, a rabbit with an extraordinary nose and a stubborn obsession with rhubarb. At night, he roams gardens, slips through fences and hedges, gathers stalks, leaves, and roots, and brings everything to his burrow to capture the bright, tart, bitter spirit of rhubarb in a perfume: green, herbaceous, and lively – like a rare discovery from an undiscovered, wild, darker part of a garden.
- This product is part of the Rhubarb Thief Collection by Heretic Parfum. The collection includes Rhubarb Thief, Beekeeper, Fourteen Carrots, Jasmine Smoke, Dirty Hinoki, and the Rhubarb Thief Discovery Set. The collection combines green rhubarb with honey-warm, smoky, floral, woody, and earthy-aromatic notes into a distinctive world of modern niche fragrances.
Heretic Parfum creates botanically inspired fragrances in small batches at their studio in Los Angeles. The brand works with organic sugarcane alcohol, formulates vegan and cruelty-free, and sees fragrance as something alive that unfolds uniquely on the skin.
Application
- Apply as needed to the inside of the wrists, behind the ears, on the sides of the neck, or in the crook of the arm.
- Heretic Parfum uses natural plant-based ingredients, meaning the scents are light and transparent. To extend longevity, you should regularly reapply the fragrance throughout the day.
