Our Verdict - Diamonds and Rubies Eau de Parfum

This Sophia Grojsman masterpiece can be divisive, often requiring patience to get past a tricky opening. Those who connect with it find a surprisingly rich, warm, and sophisticated floral-fruity, ideal for cooler weather and offering incredible value.
