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 budget-friendly floral with a cheeky citrus kick is generally a crowd-pleaser, but expect a divisive reception. Some find it a classy, long-lasting gem; others dismiss it as a forgettable, fleeting, cheap floral.
