About

Diamonds and Rubies opens with a powdery blast of red rose, sweet peach, and a hint of almond, softened by lilac and lily. The heart deepens with a rich floral bouquet of jasmine and ylang-ylang, spiced with heliotrope. The drydown settles into a comforting, warm embrace of vanilla, creamy sandalwood, and amber, underpinned by a soft, musky cedar. It's a complex, opulent take on a classic floral, with a delicious spiced peach adding intrigue.
