Van Cleef & Arpels Feerie Rubis is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Antoine Maisondieu. Feerie Rubis opens with Red Currant, Bergamot, Lemon, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Iris, Magnolia, Peony, and Freesia, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Violet. Van Cleef & Arpels's Feerie Rubis carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Feerie Rubis is a divisive scent, with some finding it a delightful fruity-floral and others dismissing it as a cheap, synthetic shampoo. Many agree the gorgeous bottle outshines the underwhelming juice within.

Scent Profile

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.

With its moderate performance and clean, inoffensive profile, Feerie Rubis is well-suited for daily casual wear and the office. Its lack of boldness makes it less ideal for formal events or a stand-out date night, but it could work for light sporting activities.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

A vibrant burst of red fruits - tart red currant, sweet raspberry, and exotic litchi - opens this scent, enlivened by a cheeky pink pepper zing. The heart blossoms into a gentle floral bouquet of peony, freesia, and magnolia, softened by a hint of juicy peach. The dry down settles into a clean musk and creamy woods, with a touch of powdery violet and warm tonka bean.
