About

Avant Ruby bursts open with a zesty, almost startling, trio of bergamot, lemon, and tangerine. This lively citrus introduction quickly mellows, allowing a beautiful heart of romantic rose and sweet jasmine to bloom, subtly spiced with cinnamon and a hint of orange. The journey concludes on a soft, clean base of musk and amber, grounded by earthy vetiver and patchouli, leaving a fresh, powdery trail.
