Purple Ruby

Intoxicating cocktail of raspberries, strawberries and strong, fresh vanilla. And I mean REAL berries, and REAL vanilla pod, not "plasticky" notes that are used in so many fragrances nowadays... There's decent amount of musk and peony (and you can really distinguish this beautiful flowery note!) and thanks to that whole composition is sweet but not sickening, fruity but not artificial and juvenile. It reminds me of Ultrared by Paco Rabanne, and CH 212 Sexy in the drydown (they're similar but not copies of each other!) Projection: app. 2-3 metres Longevity: A-m-a-z-i-n-g. 10h+ UK girls, it's currently available in TKmaxx for £15, bargain! (especially when you compare it to the original €59 price tag from Morabito's website). Enjoy!

I love this one. For the price, it's so amazing. I can smell this for days if I happen to get it on my clothes or if I lay in bed after spraying it on. For a day or two after wearing it, I'll still get wafts of it here and there from where it clings to fabric. I initially got this because people said it could be a dupe for Lancome's La Nuit Tresor. For me this smells nothing like LNT. It smells like a less sweet Pink Sugar with hints of a realistic orange. Like the smell you get when you have to tear open an orange and pull it apart because you forgot a knife. The smell that lingers in the air and on your hands. This also has a deep brown sugar caramel smell that reminds me of Jessica Simpson's Fancy as well.

I like this one a lot. I blind bought Purple Ruby after reading the reviews here and because it was so inexpensive. Since then, I've purchased some other Pascal Morabito perfumes, including Pure Perle, Perle de Nuit, Blossom Delight, and Lovissima, all really good on their own. This opens with the fruit, the raspberry and strawberry are strong. As it goes on, I get the caramel and vanilla in the base which eventually cradles the florals, especially the peony, and the fruit from the top with a little trail of musk. This lasts quite a while with moderate sillage. I can see wearing it in spring, fall, and winter, day or night. It's sweet, powdery, and feminine.

I think of a big bowl of strawberries sprinkled with powdered sugar in a room full of delicate sweet flowers where everything is colored pink. Heaven for some, hell for others. Happily for me I am in the former category, and better still this fragrance costs next to nothing and lasts all day. Just a moment ago someone leaned into me and said "mmm, you smell like strawberries" in a clearly approving way. Strawberries, yes, but also vanilla/caramel and very soft florals. Beautiful.

Amazing perfume very long lasting extremely sweet umm very rich and I love it I feel super sexi and powerful I get a lot of compliments and the price is super cheap what else can I ask

I think this is a dupe of lancome la nuit tresor... i love this,a lot cheaper but smells expensive

I love this love. It dries down on me and smells like a strawberry shortcake

Another of my blind buy bargains, 95 ml for about 18€. I could not say no to that, and the content in the bottle was a pleasant surprise. This is, as some other reviewers have pointed out a very sweet scent, so if that is not your thing, this one is not for you. It is sweet, creamy and quite young I would say. I could picture a teen wearing it, but at the same time it is also mature enough for some one slightly older. The notes that are most prominent for me are the berries and the caramel, followed by the vanilla and some musk. Not that complex, but a nice, sweet and warming scent. Something for the cooler month for sure. As another reviewer mentioned, it is a bit like a less spicy version of 212 Sexy. I pretty much agree on that. For being such an affordable scent I did not expect much, but I think the longevity is amazing! This is one of the perfumes in my collection that lasts all day. It is also very strong and a little goes a long way. All in all, very good for the price. Maybe a bit too sweet for my taste to wear every day, but it is nice to use now and then. The small red crystal beads inside the bottle is a fun detail in the design.

Caramel and strawberry ! It ́s like a creamy dessert. So sweet and fruity ! A sister of Amor Amor In a Flash or Fancy - Jessica Simpson. I love it, as I'm in love with most of Morabito perfumes (Pluie de perles, Perle précieuse, Perle pour elle, Pure perle, Lady in red......). They are excellent, delicate, feminine, sweet. Always well balanced. Excellent lasting power. I had many compliments with all these fragrances.

I find this perfume a GREAT dupe for so many high-end perfumes even with a better quality!! Better than « Tresor Midnight Rose » from Lancôme, but maybe sweeter! & a waaaay better than « Emporio Armani Because It’s You »! For the price, I give it 9/10

Absolutely gorgeous bottle! Simple fragrance. Reminds me a lot of 212 Sexy but more sweet, less spicy.

Very sweet, a bit artificial but not bad for the price

Fruity gourmand. It's pretty unisex to my nose.

This is very similar to Delina after 10-15 minutes of spraying. The strawberry note replaces the rhubarb but it is precisely the latter which makes Delina all the more interesting. Otherwise it would be just another designer scent, albeit a superior qualitative one. It projects really well and lasts really long ( I tested it on my hand and can still smell it after having washed my hands about four or more times by now). It's powdery, fruity, a nice feminine scent. I did not buy it because I already own Delina and that is enough fruity-floral feminine already. If it weren't for the rhubarb note, Delina would just not be appealing, so both are redundant really. Oh yes, it retailed for 13 euros...!

see i usually go for musky, earthy etc side perfumes but this was a gift from someone. yep, i am not for floral, sweety, those kinda perfumes however i think it's not bad, it's alright. imma rate it like a 5/10. yh man considering it was a gift n they don't know my selections, i'd say not a bad scent. just not my type. either way it's okay-ish. would wear it in my house cuz it smells good yh, not bad or too bland. would only recommend if u like them sunny, floraly-ish scents.

I really like sweet, fruity, fun gourmands. I have no qualms with wearing things that are categorized as teen fragrances even though I'm 34. Sometimes smelling like strawberries and caramel and funfairs is all I want, at other times I might chose something more serious. But this is just not it. Purple Ruby? More like purple plastic jewel or Ring Pop. It reminds me of something very specific: When I was 8 I traveled to Florida with my parents. American malls really had some stuff I had never seen in Germany in my short life. One of these novel things I bought with my pocket money was a strawberry scented glitter nail polish. And this perfume smells just like that nail polish when it had dried (I still have the old bottle!). Sweet, artificial strawberries on a harsh, synthetic, alcohol-like base. There are moments when it gets more bearable, when the gourmand notes of vanilla and caramel override the nail polish vibe, and then it smells pleasant enough, albeit in a nostalgic "guilty pleasure" way. But why wait for that? There are many sweet berry scents on the market that are either closer to nature or have a more enjoyable plastic vibe, more like Barbie dolls or scented erasers. Strawberry nail polish from the 90s is a funny memory, but not what I'd want to wear. It's the scratchy kind of synthetic scent that I just don't like. To me this is not similar to any designer fragrance, neither any Lancôme nor Burberry Her, for sure not like Delina and also not as deliciously caramelly as Jessica Simpson's Fancy. It's firmly in the cheapie realm and I think you can do better even for 12 €.

This one is so synthetic in the opening and it stays for quite a bit of time. It’s sweet, fruity and floral... and I kind of like it, but not really. I’m still not sure about it. Can’t wait too see how it changes with the seasons. Edit: I’ve been trying this one out a bit now and it has transformed a little, it’s not as synthetic anymore (but still synthetic). Now I get a carmel, vanilla and fruity scent. I like it a bit more then I did at first but i just dont gravitate towards it at all 😕🤷🏻 Sold it!

So overwhelmingly sweet and sticky, to the point of being sickly. Extremely sweet caramel and raspberry combo, with some hint of strawberry. Really lack freshness. Instant headache in a bottle. Cloying... Bottle very cheap-looking too... Do not recommend..

Read the reviews and saw the scent notes and was really excited to try this out - unfortunately to me, it just is simply too sweet and plain.

Hmm I don’t really like this it’s just smells very sharp somehow and I love sweet fruity gourmands usually but not in that case. A no for me
