The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2019 by Nina Ricci and crafted by perfumer Olivier Cresp, Nina Rouge is a Floral Fruity Gourmand fragrance that balances bright raspberry and citron with the rich warmth of caramel and bourbon vanilla. The heart notes of gardenia and ginger flower add an unexpected freshness and spicy depth that cut through the sweetness, creating a composition that feels both indulgent and invigorating.

How to wear it

Apply Nina Rouge in light sprays for a balanced experience. The fruity top notes are bright and fleeting, while the caramel and vanilla base notes linger longer on the skin. It's best enjoyed close to the skin rather than diffusing into a room.
