Exploring autumnal woods and London parks is an endless experience. Colorful palette of feelings and emotions touches the inner self. Rose petals slowly falling on the dark, warm earth. The lights passing through autumnal tree leaves play a symphony of emotions.
The eau de parfum Ruby Wood is rose- woody- balsamic floriental scent with the red berry and coffee nuances. The perfume was created by Eglija Vaitkevice in 2018.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
Ruby Wood suits a close, low-lit setting where the air is cool and the atmosphere is intimate rather than loud. It reads like a velvet coat over bare skin: rose, smoke and dark fruit moving softly, with a sensual presence that lingers at conversational distance.
How to wear
Best in autumn and winter, Ruby Wood has the density and warmth to bloom in cool air. Apply lightly at first, as its incense, woods and coffee notes project with real presence; one to three sprays is usually enough to let the rose stay plush rather than overpowering.
Who it’s for
For lovers of dark rose perfumes, smoky florals and woody orientals with a sensual edge. It will appeal to those who enjoy textured, slightly gourmand compositions with incense, balsamic depth and a polished, niche-style richness.

The nose
Eglija Vaitkevice is a Lithuanian-born, Grasse-trained independent perfumer and the founder of Exaltatum. Her work tends to blend classical French structure with modern materials, giving her compositions clarity, depth and long wear without losing a natural, story-led feel. Ruby Wood reflects that approach well: a floral-woody composition built around rose, incense and balsamic shadow, but lifted by red fruit and coffee nuances. Vaitkevice’s style often turns personal imagery and place into perfume, and here that means autumn light, dark earth and a sensual, textured rose accord.
Exaltatum’s story
Exaltatum is a London-based indie house built around emotional elevation, memory and storytelling. Its perfumes combine natural and synthetic materials in a classic French idiom, then add a modern, personal twist shaped by London, art and lived experience.
Ruby Wood’s concept
Ruby Wood was inspired by autumnal woods and London parks, with the image of rose petals falling onto dark, warm earth. The composition translates that scene into a sensual rose-woody balsamic floriental, threaded with red berries, coffee and incense for a mood that is both romantic and shadowed.
Extra info
Ruby Wood is an eau de parfum intense from Exaltatum and remains in production. It is presented in hand-filled bottles and has also been offered in 2ml and 15ml sizes, reflecting the brand’s small-batch, boutique approach.
