Bella is the eau de toilette Nina Ricci launched in 2018, the third heroine of Les Belles de Nina after Nina and Luna, signed by Louise Turner and Sonia Constant. For the house, it is a tangy floral in which the gourmand rhubarb meets a rose jelly: green mandarin and rhubarb, rose and freesia, vanilla and white musk; the bottle is a pop-green glass apple.
Kay (Shoes & Glitter) finds it a juicy, lively floral, carried by a raw, tangy rhubarb, pretty, simple and memorable, and gives it nine out of ten.

Shoes & Glitter: a raw rhubarb, nine out of ten
Kay, on November 8, 2018, sees in Bella a juicy, lively floral with an unexpected touch: a raw, crisp, tart rhubarb, rare in mainstream fragrances, which brightens the whole composition with a sparkling, youthful air.
She finds it pretty, charming and uncomplicated, while remaining interesting and memorable, best suited to the warmer months and spring. She finds the price a little high, says she bought her bottle for less online, and gives it nine out of ten.
