Nina Princesse d'un Jour

The first sip of an apple cider on a crisp autumn day, where the zesty lemon and lime notes mingle with the soft sweetness of praline and the delicate scent of peony.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Nina Princesse d'un Jour, launched by Nina Ricci in 2012, is a fragrance that captures the essence of youthful enchantment and freshness. The composition opens with bright citrus notes from lemon and lime, which cut through the sweetness of praline and apple, creating an initial burst of energy and vibrancy. As it develops, peony and night-blooming cereus introduce a delicate floral touch, while vanilla adds warmth and comfort. The base notes of musk and white cedar extract ground the fragrance with a subtle woody presence.

How to wear it

This fragrance is best applied in light sprays to allow its layers to unfold gradually. The citrus and fruit notes are most prominent initially but give way to a comforting vanilla base, making it ideal for daytime wear. A single application can carry you through an afternoon without overpowering the room.
