Nina Ricci: Nina

The bottle looks a lot like Lolita Lempicka, so for some reason, I thought it was a new Lempicka scent at first. Instead, this little jewel-bedecked apple contains some sweetly tart juice. According to Sephora:
The namesake fragrance from Nina Ricci is magical, a promise of enchantment with the radiant power of seduction. Combining temptation, femininity, and modernity, it’s a fresh, fruity floral sprinkled with a tantalizing accord.
The fragrance incorporates top notes of Calabrese Lemon and Cipirinha Lime for a sparkling and spontaneous beginning. Midnotes of Red Toffee Apple and Vanilla Infusion create a charming and seductive femininity and Moonflower and Peony Petals add gentle and delicate breath. Rounding it out are base notes of Apple Tree Wood and Cotton Musk ending in a tender sensual caress.

Definitely I get the lemon and lime. The wood and musk don’t really come out on my skin, but it’s a lighthearted spritz for summer. As far as fruity florals go this one isn’t bad, but as this blog gets older I tire of them quickly. It’s quite inexpensive, starting at $39 for a small bottle and topping out at $69 for a 2 oz flacon. At Sephora.
