What does Series 5: Sherbet - Rhubarb smell like?

It wears close to the skin: longevity is moderate and sillage weak. Most voters suggest summer and spring, and it suits leisure, daily wear and the office. More voters call it feminine, though a good share read it as masculine.

Rhubarb and bergamot give it a citrusy, slightly tart freshness, which lychee softens with fruity sweetness. Orchid and camellia add a green, floral note, while vanilla cream pulls it towards sweet, gourmand territory, with a faint spicy touch. Zara Orchid and Van Cleef & Arpels Néroli Amara have a close profile.
