Launched in 1951, Fille d'Eve by Nina Ricci is a Chypre Floral fragrance created by Jacques Bercia and Michel Hy. This composition opens with the brightness of bergamot and lemon, balanced by the warmth of peach and plum. The heart introduces an intricate blend of rose, jasmine, and honeysuckle, while the base notes of labdanum, leather, musk, and amber create a rich blend that feels both classic and modern.
Fille d'Eve is a fragrance that has endured for over seven decades not just because of its longevity on skin but because it captures the essence of elegance and sophistication. The powdery and woody notes give it a lasting quality that resonates across generations, making it a staple in many perfume collections.

Application Tips
This fragrance blooms slowly over time. A single spritz to each wrist or neck will allow its layers to unfold gradually, ensuring that it feels close to your skin rather than projecting outward. Best suited for quiet moments when you want the scent to envelop you.
