What does Ruby Wood smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated strong, though the number of votes is small. It suits anyone who likes a dense, full-bodied fragrance, whether masculine or feminine.

It opens with coriander, cardamom, pink pepper and red berries, while tangerine and blackcurrant round out the fruit. In the heart, rose, violet, raspberry and coffee absolute come forward. The base settles into myrrh, sandalwood, labdanum and oud, adding a smoky, woody depth.
