What is this choc’ed-of mystery of birth

But being mounted bareback on the earth?

We can just see the infant up astride,

His small fist berried in the musky hide.


Ruby chocolate, red leather, red musk, red berries, red mosses, balsam, and passion flower cordial.

This was a blind bottle purchase that I was 99% sure I'd love, and I do. It's all ruby chocolate and red musk and berries. If you like those notes you will love this. It's great. ❤️

I've never had it, so I'm still puzzled by what "ruby chocolate" is supposed to smell like (in perfume, and in life). What I get here are distinctly white-chocolate cocoa butter notes overlaid with pops of tart-sweet red fruit, a red musk, and a gentle balsam-and-moss fougere. I suppose the last note could be leather if I looked at it sideways, but it's more of a general moss perfume base note. There's a tiny drizzle of floral sugar-syrup after a while, but I wouldn't call it a floral perfume; it's more like a drip of floral-infused syrup topping the scent stack.

 

The dominant notes are the ruby chocolate, berries, and musk. 

 

The drydown is unfortunately cloying on me, as with Millennial Pink. My usual chocolate chemistry fail.
