Ruby
Fragrance notes
Character
Ruby opens with freesia and coriander that present a fresh, slightly spicy entrance. The coriander adds a crisp, green edge to the soft petal character of the freesia. Quickly, the heart reveals tuberose, jasmine, and ylang-ylang. The tuberose is loud and creamy, supported by the sweet, warm richness of jasmine and the lush, tropical depth of ylang-ylang. This is a dense white floral arrangement that feels heavy and animalic rather than light. The base brings musk, patchouli, and heliotrope. The musk adds a skin-like softness, while patchouli contributes a dark, woody earthiness that grounds the bright flowers. Heliotrope rounds out the drydown with a powdery, almond-like sweetness that lingers on the skin. The overall accord is a bold statement of yellow and white flowers, supported by woody and animalic nuances. It feels entirely natural in a garden full of blooming peonies and warm pavement, surrounded by the humid air of a long afternoon.
The scent stays thick and waxy throughout its development, never thinning into something sheer. It is a perfume for the person who enjoys the weight of heavy flowers and does not mind a composition that refuses to whisper. Wear it when the air is warm enough that a heavy necklace feels natural against the skin and the daylight lasts past dinner.
