Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Ruby Velvet starts with red currant, orange and bergamot, a juicy fruity and citrus opening. The heart turns floral with mimosa, jasmin sambac and orange blossom, adding a soft, slightly sweet, powdery touch. In the base, iris and patchouli bring a dry, earthy depth, while musk smooths everything into a quiet finish. It is a fruity floral eau de toilette with a velvety, romantic feel.
