Nina Ricci Les Belles de Ricci is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1996, created by Nathalie Feisthauer, David Apel, and Jean Guichard. Les Belles de Ricci opens with Orange, Tomato Leaf, Basil, and Mint, settles into a heart of Cyclamen, Tomato, Magnolia, and Freesia, and dries down to a base of Fig Leaf and Raspberry. Nina Ricci's Les Belles de Ricci carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

A legendary, much-missed 90s classic. This green, fruity fizzer was ahead of its time, delivering an unusual fresh-sour blend that polarised some but created a legion of devoted fans. The calls for its return are deafening.

About

Les Belles de Ricci bursts open with an invigorating blend of fresh tomato leaf, sharp basil and cool mint, entwined with a splash of zesty orange. The heart introduces a delicate floral softness from magnolia and freesia, while the intriguing tomato note continues to simmer. It settles into a base of sweet, juicy raspberry and earthy fig leaf, rounding out a unique green and fruity olfactory experience.
