Red Ruby

I had D&G The One for many years and I loved it, eventually I got tired of it and tried the rose version which did not last at all compared to the original. This one reminds me of it but it ́s not 100%similar in that the jasmine is less prominent, perhaps replaced by orange blossom absolute, once again I think the notes and the olfactive pyramid is all wrong (like on most Armaf fragrances on here) at least I detect absolutely no tuberose, and definitely no litchi nor musk. What I detect instead is juicy mandarin in the opening, or rather clementine/orange, and some orange blossom in the middle...the base is vanilla, possibly tonka and some amber...not suitable for the warmer months, perhaps for evenings though, good in fall/winter, very much everyday appropriate, good solid performance, not a monster but better than average designer. Cute bottle, packaging and overall I recommend all of the Niche line up. Really a splurge for the price!

Another my fave scent from sterling perfumes... a trully beauty. Nice velvet container with elegant bottle. Very beautiful so that you want to stare at this gorgeous all the time. The juice were perfect.. a fruity floral sweet scents. It represent the "red ruby" name. Elegant, mature, beauty, classy, feminine and determine. I m not good with notes, all i can tell is, it is delicious scent. It is linger for hours... i dont care about sillage... i want to enjoy the scent all for my self.. projection is more than 6 hours.. and last on my skin up to 8 hours at least. From all 4 women collection of armaf niche, red ruby is the winner...

#1161 in my "Tour de Fragrance" This is the second Armaf Niche women's scent I bought for a girlfriend and it's my favorite. The combination of tuberose and lichi comes off subtly fruity without being sweet. It's very lightly floral. I really appreciate not having the usual amber and vanilla bomb nature of so many women's wear, but without coming off like something super floral for old ladies. This is fresh, light, subtle, an enhancer, not a coverup scent. Something I will always be happy to smell on her skin.

I made this purchase based on Sarah Mayes positive review of Ruby Red and I was so happy and surprised with what I got. It was my first Armaf purchase so I was apprehensive. I don't have the D&G fragrance that it is said to dupe, but I have Marc Jacobs Decadence and I find it extremely similar. This may not shed a very good light, but I found this scent jammy and fruity to the point that I could almost taste Swedish Fish, haha. Despite that odd reference, I've really enjoyed this surprising find!

Its appealing and rounded composition is made of silky, absorbing substance and has a type of sweetness that hypnotises and attracts rather than annoys. I look amazing with staying power. It is mellow and aromatic, perfect for a night out on a special occasion. Red Ruby's vanilla is far stronger, creamier, and more sensuous. It smells great. Projection lasts on my skin for at least 8 hours and more than 6 hours. Adore it
