In Rubies, amber, sandalwood and musk give a warm, woody foundation. Cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg add a spiced edge, Mexican orange lightens it slightly, and ylang-ylang carries the floral side. The overall impression is oriental, powdery and resinous, with animal and smoky tones sitting in the background.
Most voters pick it for nights out and evenings, with daily wear and leisure suggested less often. It is regarded as a women's fragrance. Calvin Klein Obsession (Eau de Parfum) and Béjar Secret Sandalwood have a close profile.
