Ruby Velvet

Just loving this one right now, I have had it for a year and a half and am kicking myself for not wearing it sooner! That's what happens when your collection grows very large quickly! This beauty is one of those rare ones that suits all seasons night or day and pretty much any occasion. And lasting power or what! I've really got to get a backup bottle while it can still be found at Shoppers Drug Mart for !9.99, especially if I can snag it on discount Thursdays! The patchouli is there, but softly for those who shy away from it, so don't be scared off. Ruby is the perfect name for this baby, the jasmine is very prominent and the red currant is poking up too. Love, love this.

this is a must out of the collection.its long-lasting and a beautiful sweet smell, you cant go wrong with this scent

Just got it also from Shoppers Drug Mart (Pharmaprix in Canada) for 19.99$. This was a blind buy and took a chance because I bought a few weeks ago the Midnight Amber from the same line of ODLR and I love it so, from the notes of this one (Ruby Velvet) and reviews on this site I decided to give it a try. I agree with eloisegirl who compared it to La vie est belle, which I love. I would say they are close friends but Ruby Velvet is not as sweet as LVEB. This will be perfect to wear at the office and save my LVEB for special occasions since it is much more expensive. They had two other of the line, but I would like to find the Jasmine one since I'm a jasmine lover. Conclusion, I am happy with this blind buy, for the price this was a very good deal.

If Flowerbomb & LVEB had a baby sister, it would be Ruby Velvet. Very sweet, gently powdery and floral, and the patchouli & iris are tender but consistent. Moderate sillage, but lasts well enough, definitely in line for spring & summer. Super affordable, a worthwhile addition to a collection.

Lovely fruity-floral. It's sweet from both the fruit and floral notes but not overly so. It's similar to LVEB but certainly not a dupe. It's not as strong or sharp, it's softer and just very pretty. It smells more expensive than it is and you can wear it anywhere, daytime or evening.
