L'Extase Rose Absolue

Yet this one might well push its carnal side to its very paroxysm. Nina Ricci has just unveiled the third version of this already iconic juice. Prepare to welcome L'Extase Rose Absolue, a concentrate of electrifying and bewitching femininity that plunges us into the heart of the black night.

The audacious essence of L'Extase Rose Absolue

As with the first installment of L'Extase, the Nina Ricci house called upon one of the most talented perfumers in the world, the celebrated Francis Kurkdjian. He first made his name creating Le Male by Jean-Paul Gaultier before going on to work for the biggest names in the world. Here, he chose to build around the theme of rose while reinterpreting it in a more nocturnal way than ever. L'Extase Rose Absolue plunges us into the voluptuousness of the night: a Parisian night, enigmatic and sparkling, where dream and reality collide and merge, he says. The result is an utterly sensual and mysterious fragrance, as incandescent as it is carnal. Rose appears here more erotic than ever. Its warmth is such that it seems almost scorched. Thus, L'Extase Rose Absolue intensifies with the presence of black pepper and pink pepper before wrapping itself in a creamier, woodier texture of Atlas cedar. Its sensuality, in turn, draws its source from oriental musks blended with a syrupy vanilla. This effect is further heightened by the velvety presence of benzoin, while patchouli lends structure to the whole.

The nocturnal visual of L'Extase Caresse de Rose

As for the bottle, L'Extase Rose Absolue takes up the shape of its predecessor. Carrying on the chic Parisian spirit of Nina Ricci, it draws inspiration from a Couture clutch, an iconic accessory of the house. Its glass silhouette, once graduated in mauve, has now given way to an intense black lacquer. It is decorated as before with gold details, which only heightens the power of its allure. The mystery of its silhouette is here pushed to its paroxysm, and a delicate black satin ribbon adorns its neck. The whole is further enhanced by a gold plaque engraved with the name of this new juice. L'Extase Rose Absolue will also be accompanied by an advertisement featuring the lovely Laetitia Casta. Moreover, she has embodied the image of this collection since its creation, in 2015. As sensual as Marilyn Monroe or Brigitte Bardot in their day, she boldly lets her femininity shine through, embracing her wildest fantasies with audacity. One can hardly wait to see into what erotic dream the lovely BB from the film Gainsbourg Vie Héroïque will lead us this time...
