Deci Delà is the fragrance Nina Ricci launched in 1994 to rejuvenate its image, signed by Jean Guichard. This fruity chypre opens on raspberry, peach and apricot, moves through rose and sweet pea and rests on oakmoss, sandalwood and patchouli. Its pink and gold bottle was designed by Élisabeth Garouste and Mattia Bonetti. It is no longer made.
Deci Delà is a fruity chypre: an abundance of red and orange fruits set on the classic structure of oakmoss.
Fruit to open
The opening brings together raspberry, peach, apricot and redcurrant. The list noted in 2011 by Gaia Fishler adds two flowers, osmanthus and boronia.
A heart of flowers
The heart combines rose, sweet pea, jasmine and freesia, a bouquet that the top-note fruits largely cover, according to Gaia Fishler.
A chypre base
The base rests on patchouli, sandalwood, vanilla and oakmoss, with cypress and resins. It is what ties Deci Delà to the chypre family.
What stays out
Iris, hazelnut and styrax, sometimes cited, appear in none of the published lists. They are left out of the notes displayed.
