The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Romano Ricci, the grandson of Nina Ricci and founder of Juliette Has A Gun, launched X SKINS in 2025 as an Oriental Vanilla fragrance for both women and men. This composition begins with a fresh spicy note from ginger, paired with the sweet charm of lychee, creating an intriguing contrast that sets the stage. As it settles, woody accords like Georgywood and Akigalawood blend seamlessly with musk and vanilla, offering a warm, comforting base that feels like coming home.

How to wear it

Apply X SKINS in light layers — the ginger and lychee opening is vibrant but fleeting. The woody-musky base develops gradually, so it's best to let it build over time rather than layering heavily at once. This fragrance reads better close to skin than across a room.

Juliet, armed with a gun

Romano Ricci, born in 1978, is the great-grandson of designer Nina Ricci and grandson of Robert Ricci, who created L'Air du Temps — yet he chose to become a self-taught perfumer rather than lean on his fashion pedigree.
