Ruby Wood

Ruby Wood by Exaltatum is a distinctive, woody-ambered fragrance with a complex interplay of fruity, floral, aromatic, and spicy accords. It opens with a vibrant burst of tart red berries, pink pepper, citrus, and aromatic green notes like geranium and cardamom, creating a fresh and slightly medicinal tone. The heart reveals a dark, syrupy rose blended with patchouli, coffee, and olibanum, giving depth without cloying sweetness. The base centers on agarwood (oud), sandalwood, myrrh, and labdanum, delivering a cool, smooth, and subtly smoky woody richness that lingers with quiet intensity. This is not a sweet or gourmand fragrance; its fruitiness is tart and green, its rose dewy but restrained, and its oud is clean and refined rather than barnyard. Despite its elegant complexity, the scent maintains moderate-to-strong projection and excellent longevity, remaining potent for over 12 hours on skin or fabric. It leans towards an artful, unisex elegance—uniquely wearable by men who appreciate texture and mystery, and highly appreciated by those seeking a deep, non-trivial woody rose scent.
