    This smells like a L’Oreal kids shampoo that I used back in the day, meaning I find it both hard to see this as a sensual fragrance and easy to see its playful side. RIcci Ricci is a playful, fresh scent, probably best for the evening. I feel really good about myself when I wear it. It’s soft and young, but still ladylike. I can see where they’re coming from with the black leather cat ears but… yeah.
    I do find that there’s something about rhubarb notes (and this pertains to all commercial frags I’ve smelled with rhubarb, e.g. Mugler’s Aura) that just smells so artificial, like what a rhubarb Jolly Rancher might smell like. It’s fresh but not as tart as real rhubarb does I don’t know if it’s the way that the note is structured chemically/molecularly (?), but it doesn’t really meld with the rest of the notes in a sticking-out-like-a-beautiful-green-sore-thumb manner.
    I really, really like the heart stage, but the opening and the dry down are a little weird. The dry down, particularly, feels like they just slapped in some patchouli assuming it goes with anything.
    This is a great fragrance. Definitely recommend for anyone who is looking to show off their fun, mischievous side.

    This is a deep fruity frag similar to Guerlain LPRN This does not smell like a tart rhubarb to me though. It is a black currant or other juicy berry with patchouli.

    Way too strong and pungent for my nose. The patchouli comes through with intensity, cancelling out most of the flowery, softer notes. It has a sharp masculine drydown that I don’t enjoy. Good longevity, though.

    This was one of the first perfumes I ever bought. I was 19 when it came out and this was my signature for almost two years.
    It was sweet, but not in the sickly sense and it had some sophistication through the spiciness. It was a great buy and very few people I know wore/wear this fragrance.
    It is the kind of perfume that a novice wears deeming it to be rich, sexy and deep. In a way it is, but I am somewhat off Nina Ricci and the house’s countless adaptions of their perfumes these days.
    An easy, everyday fragrance. One that will get you many compliments.
    Be careful, spraying too much may result in a bug spray kind of smell.

    It was a blind buy. First time I wore it I was in a very bad mood the whole day, turns out it was the reason! Terrible!!
    I’m usually into sweet scents. This one is definitely not in anyway sweet and is just too much for my nose.
    It is too much of everything and too spicy that I actually doubted I have worn one of my dad’s perfumes by mistake.

    This is a wonderful fragrance, all the different notes make it really intoxicating, sweet and fresh at the same time. The dry down is amazing. Very good longevity and sillage. As a ricci ricci lover I ended up buying too many bottles (I was afraid to run out of it), so I’m willing to swap or sell one of my bottles, 1.7 oz eau de parfum. Pm me.

    I bought this year’s ago when it had just come out and liked it overall..not enough to purchase another bottle as there are nicer fragrances been released since, I don’t see this much anywhere anymore is it being discontinued soon?

    I wrote a review about Ricci Ricci last month, but deleted it after finally admitting to myself that I had bought a bad bottle from EBay. I re-ordered and got a good bottle the second time. This is quite floral, but on me the rhubarb and bergamot persevere throughout the wearing. I don’t like rhubarb well enough to wear it as a main note, and it eventually makes me a bit queasy. I do love the bottle. It is adorable and purple! Love L’air du Temps, but frankly, this is not a favorite. Ricci Ricci is an interesting example of pairing sweet and sour. Moderate longevity and good silage.

    It just hit me that while i love the fragrance a lot i hate that bow lid on the bottle…the purple color matches the feeling i get from the perfume but that silly bow is something I hate!

    My new bottle arrived today. I think it is my 5th bottle since it got out on the market in 2009. A drug for me! One spritz is so long lasting that I usually keep one bottle for a whole year and longer. This time I have purchased it on Ebay from Netherlands. This bottle of 80ml is wider instead of longer. I googled it fearing it is fake, but found it as wider at some markets. Has anyone experience the same? Mine has engraved stamp on the bottle as on the box. The scent is of course accurate, original…purple and pink shades..a piece of art! Falling in love all over again <3
    I want to try Dancing Ribbon and Reflets Mysterieux as well. I wonder if ginger makes this scent more sour and fresh in Dancing Ribbon and if Reflets Mysterieux is simply the strong essence of “that” recognizable scent..I got an idea to layer the original with some good quality coconut oil, should be very sexy..

    I’ve got this or it’s the pinky metallic purple bottle
    Smells not unlike diesel zero plus, minus the coconut.
    Quite like it, it’s not a powerhouse, not a freshy, I can’t name the notes

    You can easily find brand new testers on ebay for under $30. That’s where I got mine. I live in the US.

    bcars 10 where did you find it? I think it’s discontinued and I would love to have one.
    Anyway: A fresh and sensual floral fragance built around the Centifolia Rose and the Beauty of the Night, a unique and misterious flower…

    Contrary to what the naughty advert and the innocent bow may suggest, the scent itself is not sexy nor innocent.
    It is, well, elegant enough for 24-year-old me. Elegant, but playful, that’s why I think it suits women above 20s. To me it smells like Christmas, I wore it during Christmas market and it smelled divine during cold, winter days.
    The sour rhubarb note gets calmer because of patchouli, which I adore, and I swear it smells quite edible and sweet (not sure why, maybe strong lily and rose). Honestly, besides the patchouli note, without knowing the notes I would not guess them. It is very warm, stays for days (!) on my coat and shawl, for 6 hours on the skin.
    The dark purple colour of the bottle is alright, the fragrance is strong, quite syrupy. Not sure if Catwoman would wear it, but Catgirl definitely.

    Back in time when i was a teenager, my mom was given this bottle as a gift, and when i smelled it at first sniff i knew definitely that this was horrible. I was too young to be able to stand sweet, heavy, sultry scent like this at that time, But now as a 21 y-o, i find this a beautiful, sexy, lovely and very feminine-in-a-grown-up-way perfume. It has a very unique scent, i dont even know what rhuburb smells like but i know this gonna get me compliments when i wear it. My mood is uplifted immediately and I feel so beautiful whenever i spray it on myself (which rarely happens) it’s not cloyingly sweet and also not light, it’s quiet but also not innocent. My daytime scent in winter is Un bois vanille by serge lutens because i love how lovely vanilla scent smells like under the sun, and at night i choose Ricci Ricci to create a more sophisticated and seductive appearance. I dont think this is a sexy fragrance that makes man drawn to you physically (like Narcisso for Her can do) but more like a beautiful fragrance that helps women feel like they should love themselves more right now.

    My best perfume. I wear it for years and will have it always. Nothing compares to it. It has some subtle and soft sourness inside which makes me obsessed. It is The One!

    I like this perfume, but it seems I must be in the right mood for it. As some other reviewers have said, the opening, has a slightly masculine air- which is fine with me. The sweet/sour composition is done really nicely in this perfume. I find this scent to be very unique, and although on some days I’m totally turned off by the idea of wearing it, I’ll buy it again because, most of the time, I find it pretty and kind of fascinating.

  20. :

    Love the opening, is so unique! It definitely smells like a man’s cologne at the beginning, but I love perfumes with a bit of a masculine touch.
    But the opening fades too quickly, the drydown is nice but it lacks character, I was disappointed by that.

    Wow, what an unusual perfume this is! I really wasn’t sure what to expect with this, after all, it was a blind buy and the reviews were all over the place. It’s sweet and tart, like others have mentioned. It’s also fun and girly, but has a sexiness to it as well. I also find it has a spicy warmth, definitely coming from the patchouli. Madrona’s review, calling it “Rhubarb Euphoria Angel” is on point. That’s kinda what it smells like. If there’s white flowers present, I don’t smell them on me; it’s mostly a candied version of Euphoria that I smell, which is fine by me. I can’t comment on longevity or sillage because I only sprayed a bit on the top of my hand, and it may develop more if applied to the warmer areas of my body. For now though, this is a delightful addition to my wardrobe and I’m glad I took the risk.
    Update: So I’m commenting on sillage and longevity. Sillage starts off big, then slowly goes to moderate, so spray with caution. Longevity, I can still smell it the next day, so it’s tenacious. It also sticks to clothing rather well too; my sweater had filled my entire closet with this aroma. It was awesome!

    There is something about this perfume that I am not able to put my finger on. It’s a sweet tart fragrance, and is somehow also cold. Maybe this is because most other sweet-smelling perfume is also accompanied by vanilla or something that lends a warmer tone. The patchouli in this one meets the rhubarb a little less than halfway, but I think it’s responsible for the ‘coldness’ of this perfume.
    What’s even more intriguing is a very elusive quality it seems to have. It’s a fragrance that doesnt last on me, it’s gone in a couple of hours, but every now and then, as I am going about my day, I catch a whiff of something beautiful, tender. It’s like the elf queen from the Lord of the Rings played by Kate Blanchett – cold, distant but still beautiful and wise. And of course, difficult to pin down, or read, or fully understand.
    To me, who likes a challenge, I feel I want to own this. I’ve been on the hunt for a fragrance that makes me sit up and notice it. This was a sample that I’ve had for a while now. Time for a bottle now!

    Very beautiful, refreshing, womanly scent. I smelled it for one minute and i ordered it. Very strong at the beginning but very long lasting scent. I don’t wear it much because it bothers my coworkers but for night out with friends is gorgeous.

    I own this and I have owned it for about 3 years now. I often reach for it in Autumn and winter- I find it too sweet and rich smelling for summer. I will say this fragrance didn’t blow me away when I first purchased it- it was a blind buy. Overall However I do really like this fragrance but the first spritz is overbearing cloying sweetness- but after an hour or so I get gentle whiffs of a creamy smooth sweet fruity floral patchouli scent- This scent has a really lovely drydown and is wonderful with my skin chemistry. It is sweet creamy and mouthwatering with my skin chemistry and the drydown on my skin is like nothing I have ever identified before- I really love it. So if you are put off by the initial overly sweet suffocating spray- just wait it out- it is worth it- it is so creamy and warm and inviting once it settles- I am not really a fan of sweet scents- but this is an autumn creamy sweet scent done well. I am glad I have this one in my collection. I do not overuse this scent however- it is not for everyday wear in my opinion as I find it very rich and sweet. I reach for it when I need something different that is also warm and inviting and that I know works with my skin chemistry. Also I should add- I have not yet been complimented when wearing this scent- no one ever detects it on me- I feel the sillage is weak and it is a skin scent once it settles- but it does last 4/5 hours on me which is average.
    Packaging-7.5/10
    Scent-6.5/10
    Projection-4/10
    Lasting power-6/10

    Incredible scent. What a combo– rhubarb and rose. VERY different, appealing, and classy.

    OMG! What a stunner!
    I have to admit though, the very first squirt of this didn’t impress me much! It was indeed a lovely smell but I wasn’t that into it. My first impression of it was that it was reminiscent of the 90s. But I noticed that each time I try it, it unveils more and more secrets.
    Other people here commented that they didn’t realize how beautiful this frag was until they received tons of compliments. I totally get it. This is like a shy beauty! It doesn’t give it all to you from the first encounter. The more you court it, the more you get intoxicated and addicted to it. It must be some magical brain receptors interaction with this perfume.
    Delicate sweet rhubarb mixed with white flowers and sandalwood. Suit yourself 🙂

    The Nina Ricci I really like is L’Air du Temps and Love In Paris, sadly these two perfume is no longer available in my country, as people refer them as old style. I thought of I may never find other Nina Ricci I love again.
    One day, as I was shopping for shower products at an apothecary, there’s a smell that I had miss for over 10 years, the smell of beauty arcade in shopping mall, where the economy was good, people willing to spend extras on purchasing perfumes as Christmas gifts, test spraying perfumes at various brand counters.
    So I ask the sales girl what was that smell, and she showed me Nina Ricci’s Ricci Ricci. She said she was wearing this today.
    Never thought the new generation of Nina Ricci perfumes can smell that good, although it’s mostly synthetic notes. I didn’t buy it immediately, cause to me, it wasn’t as good as the brand use to be. Just gave a test spray on my inner arm and off shopping other place. In the 2 hours’ time, I still can smell Ricci Ricci from my dry skin. It does remind me of the festive season. And it was on 35% discount, I decided to go back to that apothecary and purchase 2 bottles.
    A Fragrantica member said Ricci Ricci smelled like Guerlain La Petite Robe Noir, not really, but close. La Petite Robe Noir is cherry cough syrup, while Ricci Ricci is rhubarb citrus . Both perfume share the same style, sweet, youthful having fun and purplish.
    I was a fool, never give Ricci Ricci a chance 7 years ago, her first launch. This is Christmas in a bottle.
    The current economy is so bad, people on the street are mostly in bad mood. Wearing Ricci Ricci makes me happily, wearing nice clothes and makeup.
    Update: I get the vibe of my discontinued love, Lancome Magnifique.

    What a compliment getter! Was only wearing for few hours out and about and three women commented it! Probably a record, despite my huge wardrobe.
    Rhuburb at its best, not too sour, not mega sweet, yet it is so juicy and bright, instant mood lifter, so lovely. It has spicy-fruity-unusual floral qualities, might be that mysterious datura gives a kick, I very much enjoy this decant from lovely CrystalLullaby and high chances I will go for a full bottle, special indeed.

  33. :

    Really special if you think all these weak fruity or too sweet parfumes out there. I would buy it again if could last longer.

    I adore this perfume. I first smelt it’s amazing sillage on a woman who had come to my place of work for an interview. Her scent entered the room before she did and it stayed there long after she had gone! I asked her what she was wearing and she said a Nina Ricci one the one in the purple bottle. I googled it and thankfully purchased the correct one. Unfortunately another work colleague had overheard this conversation and she also bought it – testament to how this perfume has impact but detrimental to me as I don’t like smelling identical to people I work with.
    It’s a warm, sensual scent but fruity too. When I wear this perfume I always get asked by other women what I’m wearing. In fact, my mum asks me every time!
    Its not sickly sweet like a lot of modern fragrances. I’ve grown bored of modern Perfumes and reformulations of classics and I’m now obsessed with vintage chypres but this beaut will always have a place on my dresser (5th bottle in two years).

    Smells like my grandpa when I was a little kid. He wore Old Spice and drove a car with vinyl seats and had one of those huge grey, old school cell phones. This perfume smells like falling asleep on his hot, vinyl car seat with a bag of sweets in my hand. I can smell granddad’s Old Spice drifting in the air and hear him talking on his massive cellphone to my grandma who was probably the only other person in the world with a cellphone at that time. This fragrance is sour, tart, sweet, floral, spicy and has a hint of vinyl car seat and 1980’s hip grandpa.

    Ricci ricci is a sweet floral fruity with a woodsy dry down,playful,and great for party and clubbing but it’s also powerful and sexy
    The most strong note on me is rhubarb,it’s there from the first spray til the end,and gives the scent a tart,sour and sweet fruity undertone
    I also can detect a mostly strong patchouli note here,adding woodsy dry undertone to delicious rhubarb juice also providing a deep,dark and masculline vibe
    Florals(tuberose and datura)are really soft on me,standing behind the rhubarb,patch combo providing a bright,feminie vibe to balance dark mascullinity and the result is this powerful sexy scent.when I say dark I don’t mean black, I mean just a tad darker than pink
    I can also smell something berryish.it may be just rhubarb or rose
    I am a rose lover so i’m really glad because of the dominant powerful rose on me which shows up after a while
    I prefer to wear it during cold seasons or nights out,very good longevity and sillage and a beautiful bottle that suits perfectly the redish juice inside it
    Not something I love but I can see it can be signature of a lot of modern ladies. It’s full of energy of life
    ❤❤❤

    “Rhubarb Euphoria Angel” is not as catchy of a name as Ricci Ricci but I find it describes this scent pretty well.
    There’s an opening blast of a VERY real rhubarb, smells identical to the rhubarb that grows in the garden where I grew up. Acidic/sour green with fuchsia sweetness. The patchouli comes across as the dirty/weedy/BO patchouli in Angel on my skin, but pairing it with the sparkle of the rhubarb steers it more towards a slightly darker, sweeter, creamier, stickier sour winegum/candy apple Euphoria.

    Something magical happens when patchouli and sandlewood are blended together well and Nina Ricci nailed it! Its all incompassing…and breath taking…she’s a heroine indeed! Very dark but not gothic or scary…she’s a lady….with a secret!

    Pretty bottle, pretty perfume – pretty damned wonderful!
    This was a double-blind buy, in that I’d neither sampled it, nor had I read the reviews here on Fragrantica. Sometimes, when I’m feeling a little blue, I like to go on eBay, types in perfumes, click on ‘auction’ and ‘time ending soonest’ and see what’s out there. This is how I found Ricci Ricci. Beautiful little bottle, and just £3.50 for 30mls!
    I came on to Fragrantica immediately after buying it, and was a little *befuddled* at what I found! It was floral-fruity/masculine/old-fashioned. It smelled like Angel/Lady Million/Euphoria/Jungle L’Elephant. Like energy drinks and like Christmas. HUH??!! How could it possibly be all these things? What the heck had I just purchased?
    Weirdly, it is all these things and more. I do get a touch of Euphoria in the top notes, and I get the honeyed character of Angel as develops. It’s sharp and yet warm, sour but sweet. I’m blown away by the rhubarb note – who knew it could smell so good? And the patchouli is a team-player, rather than hogging the limelight. It is fruity, and it is floral, but in an elegant, refined manner. This is no sugar bomb – it’s a grown-up kinda sweet that I think would suit absolutely anyone of any age or gender. It also has a ‘Nina Ricci’ hallmark to it – a quality which somehow unites all her fragrances right through from L’air du temps to the more gourmand apple collection.
    Both uplifting AND sultry.
    Edit: this has made it into my top three. Something about that rhubarby, honeyed patch thing going on……I just can’t get enough of it. Addictive.

    If I have to pick up the prettiest bottle in my collection, Ricci Ricci will be the winner! This bottle it’s so incredibly beautiful, that I would have bought it even if the scent was a scrubber. The fact that I adore the scent is a plus! This perfume is a perfect match to the bottle, very elegant, bright, very party appropiate. I feel really beautiful when I wear it. Personally, I would call it a cold weather scent, it’s just too strong for hot weather, at least for me. I recognise a small resemblence with Angel, but I much prefer Ricci Ricci above Angel. Everytime I wear it, a strong honey smell hits me, so strong It brings me back to my childhood time, when I would eat fresh honey, (from my granfather’s bees), straight from the jar. It’s strange, because I see no honey between the notes, but it’s certainly there, and I love it. Who knew the combination between rhubarb and patchouli would smell so heavenly?

    I love this perfume. It’s the first proper perfume I ever had. Sadly it makes my nose itch terribly and so does Nina by Nina Ricci so I think I must be allergic to something the brand uses in their perfumes. In fact when I’m wearing one my sister also gets an itchy nose if we’re in the same room. Ricci Ricci is sweet and girly, lasts a decent time. It would be my signature if I wasn’t slightly allergic.

  44. :

    4 out of 5

    Okay I tried a sample before but somehow the actual Ricci Ricci I bought smells way different than the sample (the sample is way lighter and very delightfully soft and feminine).
    Anyways. This is a perfume that I would consider to wear after I turn 25. It’s rather strong but to be honest I don’t dislike it. It reminds me of my mom (because Ricci Ricci smells like CK Euphoria she wears?). It’s a warm perfume the freshness is just about right to wear it out at the end of winter and the beginning of the spring. Overall I like it.

  45. :

    5 out of 5

    A sharp, strong fragrance. Bit overpowering. I wouldn’t say it smells like rhubarb, but rhubarb can be sharp. I can notice the patchouli in it. It smells quite spicy to me and I was very surprised to see pepper isn’t mentioned. When I last viewed this page a couple of months ago, rose was voted at the top and now its near the bottom. I remember people commenting they didn’t think they would like it from how it was described and the notes. I remember thinking I would like it and I didn’t. Couldn’t detect bergamot.

  46. :

    4 out of 5

    I bought this blind and really only for the bottle. The fragrance notes read quite well and I thought that it may not be too bad on me. I hate the top notes and I can’t describe it but they seem quite sour. As the perfume settles and the top notes disappear it smells better on me. The sillage must be good even if I can’t smell the fragrance after a couple of hours and I have had a few positive comments about how good it smells on me. Sometimes it has to take a comment from another person to give you a new perspective on a fragrance that the wearer considers as ‘so-so’. Yes, I may consider purchasing it again once I have used up more of my current perfume stash.

  47. :

    Sometimes I like to try a perfume out just because the reviews make me think it will be a certain thing and maybe I won’t like it. This is one of those times. It sounded sour and brash and how on earth can rhubarb be good in a scent? I am on a cleaning binge as I prepare for another back surgery and lo and behold, I found a decent sized sample of this so I braced myself and went for it. I do agree that the opening isn’t so great. It is a bit sour and infriendly. It is hard to describe but I don’t like it very much. But within about fifteen minutes it finds its footing and becomes marvelous! It is perfumey for sure, this isn’t a young fragrance mist of spun sugar. But it’s not standoffish either. It is sweet in a mature way and has layers. I smell the sweet facet of rhubarb, not raw cut fruit but cooked and sugared. Then that mixes with a nice patchouli that isn’t dirty or too earthy but nicely balanced. And in the background is a soft floral menagerie giving a bit more interest and sofistication. To me, it isn’t my signature scent but it is signature worthy and certainly the most grown up Nina I’ve tried thus far. I like it. I like it a lot!

  48. :

    I like this a lot more once the heart opens, at first it’s a very sharp and very sour sweet rhubarb which I admittedly recoiled at the first time I tried it.
    Then it mellows out and the datura peeks through the rhubarb once the patchouli reigns it in and there’s when I absolutely adore it. Cheeky indeed, I think it’s a fantastic word to describe it. Very playful, not quite conforming, and still refined and “French” smelling. I don’t have anything else that smells quite like this and I think that it’s the use of the datura which isn’t very common and they avoided the candy floss (cotton candy) sweet and instead used the rhubarb.
    Longevity is ok, on my wrists it wore off by the time it hit around 3:00 during a normal work day but could still smell it where I sprayed it on my chest before I dressed.

    I absolutely love this fragrance! First I fell in love with its advertisement. I went to a “Müller” drugstore and tried this out. It was amazing. I had to buy it.
    It’s a unique, really feminine fragrance.
    I’m surprised that there’s no vanilla in the parfume pyramid.

  50. :

    5 out of 5

    This was a blind buy and I had hoped that I would smell the rhubarb and the patchoulie notes the most, but instead it’s white floral and rose that I get strongly from this perfume. I definitely don’t smell a juicy tart, as others have described, but more of a floral scent. I will still wear it, but it is not what I had expected.
    Update: The second time I wore it I could smell the juicy rhubarb note a lot more, perhaps because it was a colder day than the first time I wore it.

    I got this perfume as a gift. The person who gave it to me told me that she think this perfume is very me and she pretty sure I would like it.
    And yes, I do. I really do.
    The first thing I love about this perfume is the bottle. So unique and beautiful. Genius design!
    This perfume smells very strong, sweet, funny and cheeky.
    I agree with the comments about top notes are pretty sharp. But I’m okay with it because when it dry down I think it smells amazing! Sweet floral but not too sweet.
    This perfume is just like me who is always sweet but I have some big ‘cheeky sexy’ side inside of me. LOL
    The lasting power is very good. I can smell it over 7 hours. Very impressed with it.
    If you like strong feminine fragrance which is not too feminine, I think this perfume is a good choice for you.
    The only problem that I have with this fragrance is its vaporizer break quite easy.
    It happened with couple of my bottles.

    My coworker wears this and its smells amazing on her. Shes a mature woman, and although this is fruity and slightly sweet, it no way smells cheap or young. I would describe it is fruity floral with an elegant woody background. She says its too powerful to put more than one spray on at a time. Long lasting, potent and smells like heaven…what more does anyone need? Nina Ricci has a winner here.

    Absolutely gorgeous. I smelled this on someone and I could not ignore the lovely wafts floating my way. I almost asked what it was but did not. I regretted that but I did find it a few months later by accident. On my skin, it smells unique, sexy, mysterious. Musky and floral yet clean and fresh at the same time. I feel very sophisticated wearing this. Sillage and longevity is very good – I can smell it for hours after application. I reserve this one for special occasions. This is a must have for my collection.

    It’s a tart, juicy rhubarb over a cheerful, soft white floral! I get a lot of datura in this, which is lovely because it isn’t used as often as a lot of other notes, and it really shines in this perfume. It’s just off the beaten path enough to be interesting, while still close enough to the road to be very likable. This is definitely my favorite scent from this house thus far. It smells very fresh and is sweet without being overly so. It reminds me of an expensive french milled bath soap, and whenever I put it on I feel freshly showered. I don’t know yet if it’s full-bottle worthy, but I do really love sniffing my sample!

    I’ve been wanting to review Ricci Ricci for a long time; I’ve had a sample of it lying around ever since I got interested in rhubarb as a perfume note last year, and seemed to like this one after a little try in a store. But I’ve had trouble forming a definitive opinion about it even after giving it several thorough tests; I don’t exactly dislike it, and at times I discern something very pleasing and even interesting in it, but most of the time it just reminds me of hairspray in a bad way.
    I think the trouble is I only really like patchouli when it plays a supporting role, and here it’s very much the main player – at least that’s my experience, although I see most other reviewers don’t agree. The rhubarb here isn’t tart or juicy at all, especially after the first little while when it’s more present, it’s really overpowered by the patchouli. At its strongest, an hour or so in, I really dislike this, at that point it’s almost nauseatingly sweet in that sharp way patchouli sometimes has.
    Top marks for longevity though: I could still smell this on my wrist the next morning, and by then the drydown had calmed down to a much softer, more powdery and pleasant sweetness, probably more sandalwood than anything else.

    I like the smell. Moderate longevity on me (3 – 4 hrs). Pretty bottle too 🙂 I would rate it 6 on 10.

    Cute and girly,was expecting vanilla and red fruits but instead it’s a floral perfume that evolves nicely throughout the day.Long lasting with moderate sillage and mostly a night fragrance in my opinion but suitable for all seasons!

    I agree 1000% with perfuMEOW below. Judging by the main accords listing at the top, I never, ever would have purchased this for myself, but I luckily received it in a swap.
    White floral? Negative.
    It’s sweet, sour, rhubarb and patchouli, over a soft floral mix – in that order. There is a tiny hint of tuberose at the end, but it’s barely noticeable and I’m not complaining. I don’t care for tuberose.
    Sheesh! What a wonderful surprise in an absolutely gorgeous little bottle!
    The rhubarb is so sweet and tart, it nearly makes my mouth water. The patchouli, smelling it from the bottle, is quite dry, but once it’s on skin/clothes, it mingles so
