Nina Ricci Le Paradis de Nina: Gossamer Wings on a Sweet Summer Breeze

June 18th, 2010 by Karen 9 Comments

Mandarin peels and apple candy, anyone? If you like soft, sweet scents as much as I do, swing by Macy’s when you get a chance to sniff Nina Ricci’s latest limited edition elixir, Le Paradis de Nina ($55, 1.7 fl oz).

Delicate, with a scent that unfolds like origami, this fruity floral eau de toilette feels a little less citrusy than the original Nina by Nina Ricci fragrance, exhibiting notes of gardenia, sandalwood and vanilla.

Light and soft, it reminds me of another of my favorite scents, one from last summer, Estee Lauder Pure White Linen Pink Coral, with a frosted pink glass bottle that fits my most innocent, feminine moods.

Are you familiar with the original Nina by Nina Ricci scent, and have you given this new one a try?

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    I didn’t like the original one but it seems like I could give this a chance. You know, the name, apples and paradise, all shouting me 🙂

    I love the original Nina! I grew up with a mom who has severe fragrance allergies, so it takes a lot to get me to buy perfume, and I only wear it on the weekends. Nina is pretty much where it’s at for me, even so.

      Your brother is lucky to have a sister with such good taste. 🙂 Maybe he needs to help your BF go shopping for a present for you, LOL!

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
