Product Description

Ricci Ricci by Nina Ricci 2.7oz EDT Perfume in Sealed Box.

The new mischievous fragrance by Nina Ricci

Glamourous and audacious, Ricci Ricci embodies a new urban heroine in the Parisian and sophisticated universe of Nina Ricci. Her power lies in her ribbon she plays with to colour and beautify the world with fantasy and poetry.

Ricci Ricci is a fresh and sensual floral built around the Beauty of the Night flower.
Full of contrasts, the fragrance is easy-to-wear, branded and extremely feminine. It is designed for an optimistic and self-confident woman.
Daring, the sparkling top notes of Rhubarb and Bergamot bring a modern freshness. The middle note is floral, glamourous and feminine. It is built around the Rose Centifolia and the Indian Tuberose, and is enhanced by the Beauty of the Night, a unique and mysterious flower that reveals Ricci Ricci’s personality.  Sensual and elegant, the base note comes with warm, deep notes of Patchouli Fraction and Sandalwood.

The perfumes of Nina Ricci can be divided in 2 periods - first you have the beautiful classic fragrances created under the direction of Robert Ricci and then, the new creations. Unlike other houses, Nina Ricci did not try to recreate or emulate the past but imagined a totally new character, a modern young girl. Since the early "Deci Dela - 1994", it was clear that both fun and light fruity + floral notes will become the symbols of the new house. For several seasons the house had an incredible designer Olivier Theyskens but he was too good and he was thrown away in 2009. Ricci Ricci is a perfect scent for the new generation of Ricci girls (unfortunately there is no one talented to dress them) and it is a sparkling fruity floral perfume with gourmand elements. The fragrant story is well known because the notes have been around since several years but the new creation avoids simplicity and gives all the best in this category.

It has a bitter almondy cherry note, than a wild strawberry (fraise des bois - it seems to be the theme of the perfume), some woody rhubarb, all in a light cocktail that starts fresh and sparkling to become sensual and soft (but with an accent on green acidity like in the smell of natural fruits). The floral heart is big, with lightness and iridescence with a non descript floral freshness like in some classic Ricci Perfumes - lily of the valley, magnolia, soft rose very irresistible. It avoids the common shampoo effect and the stickiness of Escada like fragrances. The drydown becomes berrylicious with a sweet patchouli sensual note (lactonic coconut apricot?) that reminds the neochypre effect from Hypnôse Senses (Lancôme). Also, there is a possible link in style and notes with Acqua Fiorentina but I prefer the Creed perfume because it has more character. In the background there is a small effect that reminds me a little Visa Piguet (the new one). On my hand it shows also a "pomme d'amour" note, very sweet but delicate like all creations of Aurelien Guichard (the Rococo cupids are in heaven every time he powders their wigs with his special vanilla secret).

It is a pleasant fruity variation that might be an alternative to Parisiennes d'Yves Saint Laurent because they share several elements. The metallic rose-violet-berry effect becomes the central ribbon of the perfume decorated with a white magnolia and powdered with some macaron sugar.
For a reason that I do not understand very well, other perfumes related to fashion launched recently (like the Jeanne Lanvin or LPRN) had a strong raspberry-rhubarb note. Is the fashion crowd so pink (like the sneakers I wore this summer) or is it because of Haute Couture Givenchy the glorious fragrance that set the trend of raspberries for every Mademoiselle?
Official main notes for Ricci Ricci fragrance: rhubarb zest, bergamot, moonflower, tuberose, centifolia rose, patchouli, sandalwood, floral accord "Belle-de-Nuit".
