Which Should You Buy?
This discontinued gem from The Body Shop is a divisive one- a warm, sweet, and comforting vanilla-floral that some adore for its nostalgic charm and versatility, while others find it a bit too childish or even headache-inducing. A true love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent.
A truly gorgeous, fruity vanilla with excellent staying power, Red Ruby is a crowd-pleaser that delivers a luxurious feel without the hefty price tag. It's not groundbreaking, but it's a solid, sensual choice.
