Bvlgari Rubinia is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Alberto Morillas. Rubinia opens with Mandarin, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Sandalwood, Jasmine, and Copaiba Balm, and dries down to a base of Violet, Saffron, Vanilla, and Tonka Bean. Bvlgari's Rubinia carries an Acquired verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

Rubinia is a surprisingly divisive fragrance; some find it a unique, sophisticated gem, while others are put off by its 'old-school' vibe and medicinal edge. It's not for everyone, but those who love it, really love it for its elegant individuality.

About

Rubinia opens with a fleeting citrus burst of mandarin, quickly giving way to a warm, balsamic heart of copaiba balm and creamy sandalwood, intertwined with delicate white florals. As it settles, a sweet, powdery vanilla emerges, deepened by tonka bean and a distinctive violet-saffron blend, creating a vintage yet modern drydown.
