Nina Ricci Nina Princesse d'un Jour is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2012.

Nina Ricci's Nina Princesse d'un Jour carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A pleasant, fresh apple-floral that's an easy reach for daytime, though its fleeting nature is a common gripe. It's a gentle crowd-pleaser that won't offend.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall
Also Works:
Spring Summer Winter

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with its fresh and inoffensive character, make it highly suitable for casual wear and the office. It's less ideal for formal events or dates where a more impactful scent might be preferred, but works well for sport due to its light, clean feel.

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
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Princesse d'un Jour opens with a bright, authentic burst of crisp apple and zesty lime, instantly invigorating the senses. As it settles, a soft bouquet of peony and the intriguing, elusive night-blooming cereus emerges, subtly sweetening the composition. The base quietly introduces a whisper of clean musk and woody cedar, grounding the fresh fruit and delicate florals for a charming, albeit ephemeral, dry down.
