Nina Ricci Nina Gold Edition is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2008, created by Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud and Olivier Cresp. Nina Gold Edition opens with Lemon and Lime, settles into a heart of Peony, Apple, and Praline, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Apple Tree. Nina Ricci's Nina Gold Edition carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This Gold Edition is a touch richer, a touch sweeter, and a touch more sophisticated than the original Nina. Don't expect a revolution, but do expect a slightly more grown-up take on a beloved fruity gourmand.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

With moderate performance, this scent is versatile enough for most daytime settings. Its sweet, gourmand character makes it excellent for casual wear and dates, but it might be a bit too playful for formal events.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Nina Gold Edition opens with a zesty, bright burst of lemon and lime, quickly mellowing into a sweet, playful heart. Crisp apple notes intertwine with a creamy praline accord, softened by a whisper of peony. The dry-down settles into a comforting base of musk and cedar, with the lingering ghost of apple wood adding a subtle earthiness.
