In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Ruby by TRNP opens with an immediate burst of natural Damask rose, Rose Otto, and Rose de Mai, giving the floral top a dense, jammy quality rather than a crisp green sharpness. Teone Reinthal anchors this trio of roses against a rich, dark base of hand-tinctured organic cacao pod, Sumatran patchouli, and woody amyris.…

Reviews →

Indigo Magie by M. Micallef opens with a boozy splash of amaretto and juicy raspberry. As it warms, it settles into a rich, nutty heart of cacao pod and hazelnut. It is a warm, gourmand-leaning scent that performs best during crisp fall evenings or cold winter days when you want a sweet, enveloping fragrance.
