Advantages: Excellent value for money, long lasting and beautiful fragrance Disadvantages: There isn't a big enough bottle!
...NinaRicci is famed for her light and refreshing fragrances, which carry their aroma right through the day without causing people to choke on what other perfumes have - an overpowering smell.
This perfume is a personal favourite, I never leave home without it. It has a very sweet and fruity aroma to it which lasts and lasts and lasts. There is almost a romantic element to it which makes this a perfect scent to tease and tantalise.
Not only this, but it comes in an adorablely cute bottle.. It is great value for money and as you never need a lot of squirts, the bottle really lasts.
Unlike NinaRicci's other scents, 'Nina' has the ability to be worn as both a day scent, or as evening wear. The combinations of Calabrese Lemon and Lime Caipirinha sit elegantly above Red Toffee Apple, Vanilla Infusion, Moonflower and Peony Petals to...

I tried to work out what the smells were as it is clearly a fab mixture but couldn't quite seperate them. Having gone on to the NinaRicci website I have found the answer and its really obvious now...

Advantages: Everything a perfume should be Disadvantages: A little expensive
...as I smelt the perfume I was in love with it. I wore it everyday and made it my signiture scent for about 4 months. It has just the right amount of strenght that you'd be able to get away with 2-3 sprays and that to last you for most of the day.
The idea behind the perfume is that NinaRicci wanted something that was enchanting, a romantic fairy tale - and she did achieve it! Ricci describes it as a designer perfume that blends temptation, femininity and modernity.
It was inspired by the red toffee apple with tender flesh and a crisp outside to tempt and charm.
The perfume was three "magic notes" to it - the top, middle and base.
***Top Notes***
Starts on a sparkling and spontaneous note with citrus flesh heightened by the freshness of Calabrian lemon and Caipirinha Lime.
***Middle Notes***
The origional mouth watering...
