Ricci Ricci by Nina Ricci was launched in 2009 and created by perfumers Aurelien Guichard and Jacques Huclier. This fragrance is a chypre floral with a distinctive blend of white florals, green notes, and warm spices, anchored by the rich earthiness of patchouli and sandalwood. The composition opens with rhubarb and bergamot before diving into a heart of datura and tuberose, creating a vibrant contrast between freshness and opulence. It has become a reference point in the fruity-chypre floral category, frequently imitated by budget alternatives seeking to capture its essence.

Application Tips
Apply Ricci Ricci in light layers to allow its complex accords to unfold. The top notes are bright and fleeting, but the heart and base notes build over time for a lasting impression. It pairs well with daytime activities and can be layered for more intensity.
