The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Nina Gold Edition, launched in 2008 by Nina Ricci and crafted by perfumers Olivier Cresp and Jacques Cavallier Belletrud, is a Floral Fruity fragrance that balances brightness with warmth. The opening notes of lime and Amalfi lemon introduce a zesty freshness, while the heart of praline and peony adds a touch of sweetness and floral depth. This composition transitions smoothly into a woody musky base, grounding the vibrant top notes with cedar and musk.

How to wear it

This fragrance is best applied with two sprays — the citrus top notes are bright but fade within an hour, while the praline and peony heart lasts longer. The woody musk base ensures a lasting warmth that reads better close to skin than in open air.
