Elizabeth Arden Always Red is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015. Always Red opens with Blood Orange, Plum, and Passionfruit, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Freesia, and dries down to a base of Amber, Mahogany, and Praline. Elizabeth Arden's Always Red carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This is a grown-up gourmand that punches way above its weight - if you can get hold of the original formulation. Forget the dud re-release; the proper stuff is a sexy, rich, plum-praline dream with beast-mode performance that's often compared to Armani Si, but at a fraction of the price. It's a genuine crowd-pleaser and a steal if you find it.

Its potent projection and long-lasting nature, particularly the original formulation, make it less suitable for office wear. However, the rich, sweet, and sensual profile, combined with its impressive longevity, makes it perfect for alluring date nights or making a statement at formal events. It's too heavy for sport.

About

Always Red opens with a bold, juicy burst of plum, passionfruit, and blood orange, instantly setting a vibrant, fruity tone. This quickly deepens into a floral heart where rose and jasmine mingle, before settling into a warm, inviting base of sweet praline, rich mahogany, and enveloping amber. The overall effect is a syrupy, dark fruit cocktail, balanced by gourmand sweetness and subtle woody depth.
