Ricci Ricci Eau de Parfum vs 1872 Twist Jasmine Extrait
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
Ricci Ricci is a love-it-or-hate-it scent, often polarising but adored by its fans. Many consider it a unique, sassy chypre floral with a fruity twist. It's an often-discontinued but still-available gem that smells far more expensive and complex than its price tag suggests.
This isn't your everyday jasmine. It's a proper grown-up, punchy floral, definitely not for shrinking violets. Expect something green and sharp rather than sweet and demure.
