The goal of this website is to show the present owners of the Nina Ricci company how much we miss the discontinued classics and hopefully, if they see that there is enough interest and demand, they will bring back your favorite perfume!


Please leave a comment below the article, (for example: of why you liked the perfume, describe the scent, time period or age you wore it, who gave it to you or what occasion, any specific memories), who knows, perhaps someone from the company might see it. Please do not use the contact form on the right for this action, as no one will see it but me.
