Fischersund No. 8 • Fischersund

The flower stalks and orange cake note is what sold me, and it delivers—sweet and tart at once, with a weirdly pleasant asphalt edge that keeps it from being too sugary. Lasts a good six hours on my skin, which is more than I expected from a fruity gourmand.

I wasn't sure how asphalt and rhubarb would work together, but the blend is surprisingly fresh and nostalgic. The Sitka spruce note really grounds the tart fruit sweetness, making it perfect for everyday wear.

The opening blast of bergamot and rhubarb quickly settles into this weirdly addictive mix of orange cake and asphalt—like walking through a market with fresh sneakers. It's unlike any fruity scent I've tried, and the Sitka spruce gives it a grounding finish that lasts for hours.
