Rook Perfumes RSX/01: The Greengrocer is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Nadeem Crowe. RSX/01: The Greengrocer opens with Smoke, Ozonic Notes, and Peach, settles into a heart of Melon and Gasoline, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Spicy Notes, and Musk. Rook Perfumes's RSX/01: The Greengrocer carries an Acquired verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one's a proper head-scratcher and polarising as they come. It'll either intrigue you with its unconventional charm or leave you wondering what all the fuss is about. Not a blind buy, but definitely worth a sniff if you like a challenge.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Best Occasions

Best For:

Its unique and potentially challenging profile makes it less suited for formal or office settings where discretion is key. It's much better for casual wear, especially in warmer weather where its fruity and smoky aspects can truly bloom, or for more adventurous dates.

About

Imagine strolling through a bustling open-air market, moments after a summer shower. Sweet, ripe peaches and juicy melon burst forth, underscored by an almost humid, ozonic freshness. But this isn't just fruit; there's a fascinating, almost industrial undercurrent - a hint of plastic and perhaps even a phantom whiff of petrol. As it settles, a warm, smoky spice emerges, weaving through musky, woody depths, grounding the playful fruitiness with an earthy, intriguing complexity.
