Powdery-sweet gemstone
Hello my dear snoopers and welcome to a new comment from me :)
(Unbelievable, after all this time and many commissioners I am still read!.... :D)
Today I describe the great fragrance Rubinia from the Le Gemme collection of Bvlgari, which is one of the higher quality and more exclusive fragrances of this brand. I got the sample from a very dear perfuma, and apparently I had to test the scent, because she said something like "Test the scent or you'll get the bottle thrown at your head", which was probably like a delicate threat that she'd break my head if I didn't test this admittedly great scent. So it seems I have no choice but to talk you through it here. You see, it's not always my fault when I have to talk all the way to you (...incredible, talking all the way to the top is now also written with three "L "s... :DD).
So, Rubinia it is. You know that the Le Gemme scents are supposed to represent a certain gemstone, which is why they also have names of gemstones and minerals (or the names are based on them). Rubinia comes from ruby, a gemstone that comes from the mineral corundum, which contains some chromium. Chromium-free corundum minerals have the same other colors like blue or green (by iron, titanium or something else inside) and are then called sapphires. Anyway, ruby is colored red and is considered to be the strongest healing stone ever (how very fitting, if I get my head bashed in by wild perfumes... :D). But a ruby also has many other magical qualities, at least in esotericism, and is also considered a stone of joie de vivre, strength, vitality and, of course, above all love. And... well, you should read more yourself, because the stone actually seems to have a lot of properties. Whether one believes in it is another thing, but interesting everything reads nevertheless very much :)
But now I finally come to the fragrance description!
You can still smell the great fruity-sweet mix of tangerine and vanilla later on, and there are also balsamic notes that make the fragrance even softer. A little later this softness is further enhanced by the tonka bean. The sweetish notes also seem to come from jasmine.
Towards the end, the fragrance actually remains as it is, mainly powdery and sweet with vanilla, tonka bean and balsamic notes, but the fruity scents go back a little and the fragrance seems to become a little more gentle. All in all a very beautiful and very feminine fragrance.
Wow, so I think Rubinia is one of the most beautiful Le Gemme fragrances I've tried so far. It smells sweet, powdery and gentle and is therefore a very feminine fragrance that comes across very passionate, sexy and elegant (and in these cases always tempts me to want to bite a woman who wears such a fragrance, aaaaahhh.....!).
The stronger sweet and powdery notes make the fragrance slightly heavier and therefore best suited for autumn and winter. Applied a little it could be used every day, but even better it is suitable for the evening to simply appear heavenly, elegant and above all seductive (and of course... you know me and know what comes now... especially tasty :D). It's just so perfect for going out or dating (of course not with me... *sigh* meanness!) and just for it, so that all noses that perceive the smell on one can only say "WOW"!
So I think that this fragrance is definitely worth a test! To cut a long story short: You ladies would be really stupid if you didn't try it at least once :))
Yes, with that I have arrived at the end and wish you a nice evening, until the next time :)

The fragrance:
The fragrance starts slightly fruity and sweet with a mandarin, but I would not have found it immediately if it wasn't in the fragrance list, even if you can smell that the beginning is quite fruity. I quickly smell beautiful, sweet-powdery vanilla, which harmonizes very nicely with this mandarin. In addition there is a light spice, which should be the saffron indicated, but which quickly fades into the background again. Also in the background I smell a light, clean soapy component. You can still smell the great fruity-sweet mix of tangerine and vanilla later on, and there are also balsamic notes that make the fragrance even softer. A little later this softness is further enhanced by the tonka bean. The sweetish notes also seem to come from jasmine.
Towards the end, the fragrance actually remains as it is, mainly powdery and sweet with vanilla, tonka bean and balsamic notes, but the fruity scents go back a little and the fragrance seems to become a little more gentle. All in all a very beautiful and very feminine fragrance.
The Sillage and the shelf life:
I think the Sillage is pretty good. It could be that the power of the fragrance doesn't really come across at the beginning, but it soon develops better, so that one is wrapped in a nice, even bigger fragrance cloud, which is good to smell for others. The shelf life is enormous, because the fragrance lasted ten hours with me. The bottle:
The bottle has a cup-like shape and is black with golden accents. The foot of the flacon is smaller, so that it could shake or tilt easily every now and then when touched, so you should be a little careful. The disc-shaped lid is, as always, the highlight of the bottle, as it is also black-golden, but also has the colour of the respective gemstone, in this case ruby-red with a great golden decoration in star shape. A very beautiful and noble bottle. Wow, so I think Rubinia is one of the most beautiful Le Gemme fragrances I've tried so far. It smells sweet, powdery and gentle and is therefore a very feminine fragrance that comes across very passionate, sexy and elegant (and in these cases always tempts me to want to bite a woman who wears such a fragrance, aaaaahhh.....!).
