The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Rose Extase by Nina Ricci, launched in 2017 and crafted by Francis Kurkdjian and Maïa Lernout, is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance that balances vibrant fruity top notes with an enveloping heart of rose. The red berries and raspberry add a juicy freshness to the opening, which then gives way to a rich bouquet of roses. The base notes of vanilla, musk, and amberwood provide a warm and powdery finish that feels both intimate and comforting.

How to wear it

Start with one spray to let the fresh top notes breathe. The heart of rose will unfold over time, so this fragrance is best enjoyed close to skin rather than diffused widely. It pairs well with light layers in transitional weather.
