Nina Ricci Perfumes

Fragrances from the Parisian fashion house of Nina Ricci are renowned worldwide because of their seductive charms and unsurpassed femininity. All Nina Ricci perfumes have a spontaneous top layer that immediately catches your attention. Very quickly it settles into the creamy middle notes that stick for hours. The woodsy and floral fragrance of Nina Ricci perfumes are known for their soft seductiveness.

Nina Ricci made her foray in the world of perfumery with her jeweler husband in 1932. However, it was only after the war that Ricci started to become a formidable presence in the world of exclusive perfumes, with the help of her son Robert. The fist fragrance was Coeur-Joie in 1946, followed by the iconic 'L'Air du Temps' in 1948. Ricci has continued to be a major presence in the fashion world ever since.

Some of the Nina Ricci perfumes that have acquired great popularity over the years are:

• Capricci (1960)
• Mademoiselle Ricci (1967)
• Farouche (1973)
• Fleurs de Fleurs (1982)
