by Steve DeMercado

Rihanna RiRi is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Steve DeMercado. The fragrance opens with Passionfruit, Rum, Redcurrant Leaf, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Orange Blossom, Honeysuckle, and Freesia, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Musk, Benzoin, and Vanilla.

Our verdict on RiRi: Statement

RiRi by Rihanna is a divisive tropical cocktail - some adore its sweet, boozy, fruity charm as a compliment-getter, while others find it too generic, cloying, or fleeting. It's a celebrity scent that aims for fun, but might leave some wanting more depth or longevity.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its sweet and fruity nature, combined with a boozy rum accord, makes it ideal for casual and date settings, especially in warmer weather. However, its perceived sweetness and sometimes moderate sillage mean it's less suited for formal events or a professional office environment, where subtlety is often preferred.

About

Imagine a vibrant, boozy fruit punch, where tart passionfruit and mandarin mingle with a generous splash of rum, creating an immediate, delicious hit. This playful opening soon softens into a creamy heart of jasmine, orange blossom, and honeysuckle, draped over a warm, musky vanilla and benzoin base. The sandalwood adds a subtle, smooth depth, ensuring the sweetness isn't entirely overwhelming.
