What do reviewers say about Red Ruby and Marfa?
Tuberose doesn't have to mean heat. Red Ruby opens cool and stays cool through the lychee heart, then eases into a warm vanilla close. That citrus-to-tuberose-to-sandalwood arc makes it work in.Red Ruby
Tuberose this bold isn't for the tentative. But if you've ever wanted to be the one in the room that everyone remembers, not the loudest, but the one they can't stop leaning toward.Marfa
