The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Les Gourmandises de Nina by Nina Ricci, launched in 2017 and crafted by perfumer Olivier Cresp, is a sumptuous gourmand fragrance that embodies the essence of indulgence. It opens with a zesty burst of lemon, quickly giving way to the lush tropical notes of passionfruit and piña colada. This playful heart leads into a base of caramelized pralines and gardenia flowers, creating a harmonious blend of sweet and floral. The fragrance is an invitation to savor each moment with its rich layers of gourmand delights.

How to wear it

Apply Les Gourmandises de Nina to pulse points for a warm, enveloping experience. The top note of lemon is fleeting, so allow the heart and base notes to develop fully on your skin. This fragrance pairs well with a light jacket or cardigan, as it reads best close to the body.
