What does Ruby smell like?

Ylang-ylang and red frangipani give it a floral warmth, while Ceylonese cinnamon, clove and Persian saffron sharpen that warmth with spice. Bourbon vanilla and rum sweeten it and add a creamy softness, and oud, sandalwood and ambergris build a smoky, woody, resinous depth.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out. Character votes favour masculine, though a fair share read it as feminine. Van Cleef & Arpels Bois d'Iris and L'Artisan Parfumeur Passage d'Enfer Extrême have a close profile.
