Ricci Ricci By Nina Ricci For 'My' Special Day


Today is a special day for me, and I'm celebrating it with Ricci Ricci by Nina Ricci.

It's a special day because it's my day. Literally. 14th January is "Cynthia" Day, named by 'somebody special' for reasons that are personal. No, please don't wish me.. haha! It sounds silly, but it means something to us, plus I get gifts so it's not silly after all! ;)



"The new mischievous fragrance by Nina Ricci is Glamourous and audacious, Ricci Ricci embodies a new urban heroine in the Parisian and sophisticated universe of Nina Ricci. Her power lies in her ribbon she plays with to colour and beautify the world with fantasy and poetry.
Ricci Ricci is a fresh and sensual floral built around the Beauty of the Night flower. 
Full of contrasts, the fragrance is easy-to-wear, branded and extremely feminine. It is designed for an optimistic and self-confident woman. 
Daring, the sparkling top notes of Rhubarb and Bergamot bring a modern freshness. The middle note is floral, glamourous and feminine. It is built around the Rose Centifolia and the Indian Tuberose, and is enhanced by the Beauty of the Night, a unique and mysterious flower that reveals Ricci Ricci’s personality.  Sensual and elegant, the base note comes with warm, deep notes of Patchouli Fraction and Sandalwood."


It is one of the prettiest perfume bottles I have, and you know my weakness for bows! The scent is something I'd wear only on formal occasions, and not everyday, because it's stronger (more Rhubarb and less floral) and would scream 'perfume' in an elevator full of people. I like my daily fragrances to blend in & play Ring a Ring O' Roses with the scents of my other beauty products that I use, but this doesn't want to mingle, it wants to stand out.

Size ~ 30ml. Small & cute. 

*The cap is the same size for the bigger bottles as well. I think it looks better & more proportionate on a small bottle.

Price ~ Rather inappropriate since it's a gift, but if you really want to know- Rs.2550 (30ml). If it's cosmetics, I always find out, one way or another ;) 

♥ Cynthia Z ^.^

I ♥ finding little notes in my Vanity Case, so do drop one. I read all of them & I try my best to reply to each & every one of them [check back in 2-3 days =D] but most times it's physically impossible! Either way, I love to hear from you & really appreciate you taking the time out to share your thoughts <3

Thank you for reading! :)
