Nina Ricci reinvents the Nina fragrance as an iced sorbet. Since 2006, Nina has walked the streets of Paris with disarming freshness and playful charm.
Nina is a young heroine, fresh and delicate, who appeared on the shelves of Nina Ricci in 2006. A kind of modern-day fairy, enamored with romance straight out of a fairy tale, she never stops reinventing herself and opening new chapters of her story. This time, she takes us with her into a more summery whirlwind and makes our mouths water with her new freshness, more gourmand than ever. Les Sorbets de Nina is a tribute to famous Italian-style ice creams. Presented in a soft pink bottle, whose front face looks as though someone has already taken a bite out of it, Les Sorbets de Nina is a treat to be enjoyed without restraint. So, what is the composition of this new fragrant ice cream?
Fruity top notes for freshness
First, Nina Ricci sets out to evoke the fresh scent of an ice cream, combining a frosty breath with a certain dose of gourmand character. On the freshness side, Nina Ricci therefore chose to include lemon in the top notes of Les Sorbets de Nina. Tart and zesty, it acts here like a frosty bite and gives this fragrance a very incisive edge. It is paired with a more sparkling and juicy mandarin. Equally citrusy, this raw material adds a very welcome touch of freshness to the composition on hot summer days. For more gourmand appeal, Les Sorbets de Nina also contains raspberry. This small red fruit is a star of the sunny season, and its pink color also echoes that of its alluring bottle.
Les Sorbets de Nina, a floral heart for femininity
Then, as if to recall the very first version of Nina, femininity takes on a larger role in the recipe of Les Sorbets de Nina. Its heart is built around a bouquet of flowers, made up of two main varieties. Jasmine gives off a certain opulence here. It gives this fragrance a warmer, richer and sweeter feel. Slightly animalic, it also preserves an extreme sensuality. It is paired with magnolia. More complex, this flower is at once floral, lemony and vanilla-like. Infinitely rich, it gives Les Sorbets de Nina a three-dimensional depth and heightens the appeal of this fragrance.
Nina Ricci and its gourmand base notes to win over your heart
Finally, evoking more than ever the gourmand character of an Italian-style ice cream, the base notes of Les Sorbets de Nina are dominated by a praline accord. In cooking, praline is obtained from almonds browned in sugar. And it is precisely this touch of toasted sugar, close to hazelnut, that is found in Les Sorbets de Nina. Do not even try to resist the temptation: Les Sorbets de Nina is designed to make you give in. Enjoy it, it is a treat guaranteed to be zero calories!
