Nina (for women)

Daria

sweet,light,fruity,long lasting and girly...

I totally love it!

mandashell

Hmm, I don't really like this. I have a sample that I keep smelling and I am truly underwhelmed by it. With all the reviews I expected so much more. I guess it is kind of unique because it smells like apple pie but that's about it. The only notes I smell are a tad bit of lemon and cinnamon-y apples, nothing else. I find the scent overall to be really average and I wouldn't buy it. This scent just doesn't work for me..? 0.o

lollipopsneeze

My bestfriend sent me a little sample bottle of this and I fell in love with it! It reminds me of a winter holiday scent so I will just have to buy a full bottle of it around christmas time for sure!

I smell sweet sugary lemons,juicy apples and the warmth of praline with loads of vanilla...I usually don't love cedar notes on my skin unless it's paired with a very sweet note then I love it..I think it's the cedar that's giving me mental images of sleigh rides and jingle bells...Is apple tree really a note in this?

fantasy101

it's the best perfume ever. i totally love it. it's light and sweet and not over powering. a must have

markRep

This one you must try on the skin! I also did not like it at all, till my skin turned it very warm and yummy. But i do have weird chemistry, normally turn the best perfumes sour. Maybe for once I turned a bad perfume good?

falovalo

I'll admit, I didn't try this on my skin, but from what I could tell, the bottle must be the biggest selling point for this perfume. Smelled of chemicals, like Red Delicious. Underwhelming!!!

messy-mom

Bought this one without trying based on reviews. Big mistake. The cedar came through loud and clear and smelled like body odor. Must be my chemistry.

Tochica

Great flavor, very delicate, and somehow refine innocent. In the beginning you can feel very clearly the fruit sweet of a red apple, but you can miss the lime. Later you can to feel vanilla, musk and peony. Very sweet and romantic perfume, really like a fairy tale character. This scent is delicious and tempting just like a caramelized apple
Aroma is like child's innocence, but at the same time tempter and seductive.
I love it!

elvive

i still have a crush for Nina :)
the first time i smelled this one, i thought lot's of "nice" words like cheap, soapy and etc. but then i got a rally great chance to buy it for such a low price, so that was a great bargain-why not? :D
and then Nina grew on me and became such a wonderful perfume: not cheap, soapy on my skin, but very sophisticated and in some kinda way even sexy ;) love this :)*

annehke

A chipper fragrance with a candid heart. The opening citrus notes make it a bit different than most fruity perfumes. The citrus top is unsweetened and therefore is very refreshing.

It reminds me of Lolita Lempicka-not because of the bottle wich is similar-but because of the sugary gourmand notes. For a few moments while I was wearing Nina Ricci, it smelled exactly the same as Lolita Lempicka; when the gourmand notes arose. Nina Ricci has more natural feeling notes than Lolita Lempicka, giving the idea of a garden or spring time, nature and purity.

The sillage is of medium to low strength and the fixation and lasting power is weak. Could serve well as a gift perfume being a bit unique, darling, innocent, and gentle scent,
in a collectible bottle.

I personally did not like it very much.
Itś not my style- and I thought it a bit boring, not so stimulating for me. However, I base my review on itś positive aspects and qualities and the idea that it not a bad perfume and generally enjoyable.

kittyxt

This will always be my very favorite perfume ever. i love the sweet citrusy smell and it last for ages on my skin. the bottle is so cute to and every time i wear it i always get asked what it is and my hubby loves it too :-)

pure

It seems like it's going to be my signature perfume for a long time! I would buy dozens of parfumes, so I let myself have only 3 at once (otherwise I'd spend all the money I have on perfumes :) Nina is already "blocking" one place on this list, because I couldn't live without it!

UPDATE: 5 at once. I'm worth it...

It's so universal and most of all - authentically beautiful. When I tested it for the first time I couldn't smell anything after an hour. Fortunately, the fragrance actually stays for 5-6 hours.

I'm during my first 50 ml, but I'm already planning buying the next 80 ml.

(Whatever you think: this is not a scent for pink Barbie girls or overemotional romantic princesses. It would bring a lot of charm to your everyday life :)

Jessmoberry

I tried this ages ago from one of those little wipes they send in the mail. All I remember was thinking it was "okay" - a bright apple-y scent. Nothing special.

Girly T-Rex

I had ordered a bunch of samples through ebay and Nina was one of them in the lot. I've been wearing it on and off for about two weeks now, and I have to say that I'm not at all impressed with it. It smells like a caramel covered green apple, or a green apple crisp dessert. It's a nice light fragrance, but for me there's nothing appealing about it- except for the beautiful bottle.

Darling Starling

I remember it like it was yesterday... I had just finished my second bottle of Vera Wang Princess and I was in Macy's about to buy another. I walked through the door and was offered a sample of Nina. I instantly fell in love, probably because it was sweet and a bit apple-y and it was mid fall, apple picking season in Maine! Well, I wore it religiously through the fall, but when winter hit I suddenly was sickened by the scent. Instead of the pure notes of fresh red apple, candy and spices I got a synthetic and bitter note that lingered longer than the others. I ended up swapping it. I think this scent is great for fall, but not great for me anymore.

CUPCAKEDOLL

Sweet, delicate and femenine. The bottle is original, atractive and beautiful.
Smells like candy apples, it reminds me when I was a little child!

mgirl1090

I have this one and I barely use it..I just find it's smell to strong for my taste. It's has long lasting smell but I just didnt like that it gave me headaches so I plan to give away to my friend :(

gucci

i love this one to me it's very sweet and soft very floral and mature i saw on line that she is sueing the makers of the twilight perfume for copying the shape of the bottle from this perfume nina ricci

guest_ok

a perfume suitable for little girls under 12 years old. A perfume for kids. Would be ridiculous on a teen or a mature woman. Only goes for kids.

noharadwan

a sweet ,feminine fragrance with amazing lasting power ,you can wear it all the time , and the bottle is lovely!!

joflo723

I am in love with this fragrance. I love sweet scents and the way the sweetness blends with the fruitiness of the apple, it's just gorgeous. The bottle is perhaps one of the cutest I've ever seen (cutest I own anyway!). Staying power is so-so...better than a body spray but not as good as I would expect from an edt). I've had to decant some into a smaller spray bottle to refresh throughout the day.

Chatnoir

A slightly more refined riff on the apple scents that have been so popular lately. If original DKNY "Be delicious" is refreshing apples front and center, "Nina" is more like apple blossom- tart apple with a floral undercurrent sweetened by sugar. The apple peeks through the floral, not vice versa.

Cris_Venesza

I like this perfume ...not in love but it has a good smell ...and it smells a little apple, a little fresh and it has a drop of sweetnes ....it's not a special perfume but not commune , it's a perfume for cold days and it works alsou for summer days .

guest_Lolo

The magical commercial made me curious but after trying the perfume, there really is Noting special about it, and I was completely disappointed. It Doesn't smell like apples, it smells like cough syrup.

Annie_D

Sorry this scent doesn't quite do it for me, the fruit mixes with something a little more earthy maybe the cedar or musk and the combination is odd. I tried it and I ended up washing it off, definitely try this before buying. The deeper notes of musk and cedar came out but the apple remained and it made me quite sick.

tsofa

It's a nice scent in a beautiful bottle. I liked the combination of the lemon with the apple, its sweetness makes you feel kind of romantic. It lasts long on me and so i don't have to spray myself all the time.

Nevertheless, the cedar is one of the notes that i don't like to smell and unfortunately it's a fragrance that i'll forget very quickly. It didn't impress me much.

guest_Melly

This perfume is Awesome...the Scent of it that is. But VERY unfortunately has to be applyed I swear every hour or two as it fades away very quickly. Something this good shouldn't have to be applyed so often. Thats the one MAYJOR flaw of this perfume! But still is totally worth the buy....

hena a

Smells familiar, maybe like apple crumble?
Cant place my finger on it. A bit strong for my liking tho.

Amanda79

Clean, sweet, fruity and fun! Great for spring/summer. Sugary lemons at first soon disappear into a crisp and candied (toffee, praline) apple. Lots of vanilla in this one and in the dry down! The cotton musk reminds me of fresh laundry. Its like Bath and Body Works Cotton Blossom and then add the candied apples and this is what it smells like to me! I'm not sure about the lasting power because I keep spraying it on. I love the smell. :)

Update: Lasting power is good and the silage is fantastic!

smellysmell

Very insteresting note, praline.
Have you seen the ad? it's over exaggerating it, dont you think?

Fiorenza

I liked the fragrance from the first time I tried it. The beginning is very fruity and fresh, while the finish is warm and musky, mmm :))) Although there were a lot of people who said that its staying power is not good, I find its endurance very good - I can even smell it on my wrist on the next morning. According to my observations, men really love this fragrance - it is sweet, cosy and sexy and it always drives their compliments. This is one of the best winter fragrances for me!

justine_gayle

You really can smell the candied apples! YUM! A lot of my male friends love spritzing themselves with this. They love the sweet scent that isn't overbearing. It's a girly girl scent. Not to seduce but just to make you feel cute and pretty! :)

One of my favorites! I just don't like the staying power. Hope it could last all day long! :(

mypersonalharmonics

I find nina very light,it is non-existent on me.I spray it and nothing happens.Neither me nor anybody else can feel it.A no no for me.

dalkiuyu

I love this perfume. It's tart and sweet but not overbearing. The drydown is very woody and mellow. Generally, it's just a very nice, inoffensive scent that would probably suit anyone.

hissykitten

My favorite! You can really smell the sweetness and the lemon/lime smell first, then it softens out. I receive a lot of compliments when I wear it. Unfortunately, it doesn't have a lot of staying power at least on me anyway, but I love love love it!

archangel

I love it, but I absolutely can"t wear it in winter. But I can't live without it in summer lol

kahokero

Nina is the first fragrance that I bought in my life. It is so unique that I have not found any fragrance that smells similar to it. It smells wonderful,taking my imagination into an unbelievable world. It is not just an apple fragrance. The combination of notes gives something that is just what I was looking for. The dry down is like creamy corn soup. I love it. It is the magical fragrance for me. I think that I will have this one for life.

alicektn

The top notes, the bottle and the ad are fantastic!

But I detest the drydown on me. Synthetic cigarette smell drowned in water. YUCKK.

pumpkinqueen

This is not bad at all.

I feel that it is NOT a winter scent so maybe some people who recieve it as a christmas present may be dissappointed. BUT DONT BE!

I feel this is perfect for those warm summer evenings. Its young, fresh, warm and sweet... not bad. Not entirey my style but i do wear it 3 or 4 x a month... and it is BEAUTIFUL!!

Mado Haddad

Well, since so many people said it's not long lasting, so: I decided to wear some lotion at first (Fruttini Cherry Vanilla) & later I wore Nina..
Yeah!! it's not that long lasting.. it stays on about 4 hours. The first 2 hours, I could smell it very well, & it starts to fade gradually afterwards.
During the first two hours, I could say, "Ya, it's a magical fragrance.." I really really like it.. it smells soooo good on my skin.
Unfortunately, I wouldn't buy a full bottle of it because of its lasting power:(
But, I'm sure I'll miss it.. so, I'll just grab some samples when I do!

rheea oana

I have really tried to like it..not for me...that first lemony impresion that I like so much about this fragrance fades away to quickly...leaving behing a super sweet tofee apple wich I would like normaly ...to eat..but not to wear!!
It's not bad...actually it has a hidden scent wich infiltrates among this other ingredients that I like very much...it adds a breath of air to the sweet concoction...Not for me...but I'm sure a lot of young ladies would find this suitable enough!

blue_bear

I'm a bit disappointed. Reading reviews I was expecting something extraordinary... but testing it on my skin all I felt was lemon and sourness first, and then something like fruity bubble gum. And it's not long lasting..

Emeraude

I like the bottle...the fragrance is really nice,I can smell apple most of all...sweet more than fresh...

PR

this was a real flop. I didn't detect any sweetness, it was just plain and sour.., if the tester wasn't off, of course

TGrace123

When i tried this smell i was blown away, It was sweet, and lady-like. I think its a very optimistic scenet that smells like a calm candy apple.

maschin

at first it is a very delicious, fruity and sweet fragrance, with the notes of apple and caramel being dominating, making it very attractive. After half an hour all these notes disappear and it turns out to be an ordinary smell, which doesn't last at all.

roselips

I keep trying this fragrance to understand its great reviews. It's quite charming and sparkly initially, there are notes I really love--like the apple in daisy or light blue. But there's more sweetness and caramel and vanilla. This is a fragrance I could only wear on my wrists or pulse points far from my face. I love sniffing the dry down in puffs--then I register a lovely green fresh something at the core. It's quite long lasting on my skin.

ICE Bianca

The opening is what made me like this fragrance so much!! It's tart, but just enough to balance the sweetness of the candied apple!!
The peony adds a softer silky texture to gently mingle with the gourmet praline vanilla!!
All this is just an explosion of smells calming in the end with speciffic scent of tree bark!

Kittycat63

I got a tester of this today from a department store and wasn't sure about it at first as it's very sweet with a strong toffee apple smell which I found a bit startling at first! However, it evolves into a very nice, sweet but not sickly scent although I don't smell any lemon in it at all, even though supposedly it has some in. It's really started to grow on me and I may have to buy myself a bottle!

Moszatka

Very popular fragrance. I bought it for 2 years ago. I like it, but not too long lasting. Fresh accords, then some sweetness (maybe because of the praline). Delicious!

dina

Very sweet and fruity might be a little girlish but still its elegant and works fine for older ladies. Top citrus notes are lovely...

Teolinda

At first I barely noticed that I had put on the perfume...it was gone in minutes. But I didn´t give up, tried it again and it smelled strawberries and citrus. Very nice. Later it was more of a warm and sweet candy/vanilla flavour.
I think it´s okey but I would have liked it better if it was fresher and less sweet.

Malegria

I love it, but it`s totally wasted on my skin. I can enjoy it only for a mere hour - and then - puff - it`s gone!All this caramel-ey /apple-ey sweetness... I was very upset and traded it.
And it is such a good antidepressant too.
Wish I could get it in pure perfume.

ct1980

Probably one of my all time fave's, a go to scent for day or night, i always get a lot of compliments when wearing it and it makes me feel beautiful:)

carito

I did not like it...i just got a lot of candies...but i think ie very girly..and the bottle is so beautiful!

elgab89

Fresh, floral, fruity and sweet. This perfume takes you into a fairytale world, in the middle of an apple orchard.
What a feminine perfume, romantic and enchanting, for young and young at heart!
This is so pleasant, I could not imagine anybody being offended by it.

sjanira

I really like the bottle but the fragrance is a little to soft for me. I guess it depends on your skin. It smells sweet but fades quickly on me. It's really a shame because the bottle is sooo cute and the scent isn't bad at all, it just doesn't last at all. For the price of this, I expect a fragrance be noticeable on my skin for atleast a couple of hours not just go in 5 minutes. It's not worth the money to me, there better fragrances out there with better prices.

ladysuean

lovely just lovely!!!!

Jeanette

Is it just me who smell strawberries?
Way to girly for my taste. Not a parfume i would use on a date. Or ever...

vjeshtica

Too sweet for my taste.

coco_mademoiselle

the advert made me adore this fragrance but as soon as i bought it i got bored of it very quickly. it is a sweet scent and i do like sweet scents but it is too citrusy for me. its smells like toffee apple.
in conclusion i am not a big fan of the smell but the bottle looks gorgeous and i really do show it off on my dressing table!

Feiyt

I really love this fragrance. Very feminine, sweet scent - citrusy top notes, but then it melts into a toffee apple, warm scent that attracts alot of good attention. =P The bottle is the cutest thing as well - almost bought it just at seeing it, but on smelling the juice inside...almost bought a boxload. xD Only complaint I have is that the staying power on me really isn't that great - I'm a two spray girl, and it only lasts maybe 4 hours. Or maybe my expectations are too high for an EDT...

Althea

not bad if you want to smell like a candy, but then rather purchase Pretty Nina, in my opinion it is a lot better,yummy!

dolita

fresh and sweety but not very sweety and the apple smells quite in it
over that the design of the bottle is fantastic

kisma

I like it, it's give me a sweet feeling.

Rock´n´roll

I Love this fragrance! Its sweet and feminine... When im wear this I always get compliments, from both men and women!

nezzabel

for me it's a romantic and sweet fragrance!
on me it's long lasting and very confortable. I don't find it sexy, but i love the way it makes me feel: with a smile on my face!
i allways wear it when i need some optimism to start my day!

guest_Natalia

La he provado hoy y me dejomaravillada! Tiene un olor muy dulce y unico,que no he olido nunca,como a fruta caramelizada

liat

After being told I do not like anything :), I'd like to re-write my review: Nina is a very femminine fragrance (btw, I like it a lot). It's constructed beautifully, it's very well balanced and elegant. But in my humble opinion, such a sweet fragrnce should have been more sexy.

guest_kidy

To me it's prefect,smells like love,so romantic,im in love with it. to me it is very long lasting,i feel it for days..

lolo

its not long lasting

moonoi

never known that lemon at top
it's kind of sweet vanilla or caramel apple

jonr951

i gave this to my best friend for her bday this year and she adores it! i do as well! the lemon in the top notes is incredible! i also love the apple in it! its just a fun fruity bright scent that i think all young girls will love and should own!

dioradddict

on top notes i feel somethin that reminds me of cigarrettes, so i woudn´t buy it for me...(i just can´t imagine which notes could do that)

amanda

its sweet, but smells cheap, and very shyntetic. i dont like it very much, the bottle is great and the commercial is much like a fairy tale but the scent itself is not unique and interesting enough.

alina terec

this is a modern fragrance. it has caramel and adds a sensual touch to your skin after it wears off a little.its not fresh its more like deep sweet and leathery. i like it. its for girls between 18 and 30. worth to try

solocha

I tried it today, my first reaction was no, then after 10 min yes, now back at home I pronounce for myself - no. It's too sweet, and I believe it can be nice for someone. It could be well suited for a girl from 15 to 17, non-broody, bubbly, extroverted type who likes to attract attention of many. It is also too mediocre.

guest_Zoe M

It's too I dont like the smell. It's fresh, and the comercial it's better than the fragance

noor_jehan

to me it smells festive - like holiday celebration - you can imagine laughter, colors, confetti, fireworks. :) and the bottle is cute, reall adornment.

jeca

You think so? Maybe ;o)
But it is very optimistic, bright and girlish scent. I'd like to wear it in winter, when everything smells on Christmas and New Year holidays, it is fantastic ;o) Especially if you are tired of luxurious scents.
