Ricci Club

Ricci Club is somehow dry, creamy and tart all at once: a unique convergence of spicy fougere, citrus aromatic, and green floral, it stimulates my palate with its multitudes. The lavender is muddled with peach and what reminds me of Angostura bitters. The green doesn't bite, it nibbles around the edges and adheres to the florals that bloom as the top notes simmer down. An orange-hued powdery amber, tobacco-like tonka and woodiness forms its base. It's the kind of fragrance that would suit a cool, breezy summer night. I find it delicious, but I only own Ricci Club due to finding it for a steal online. Unfortunately, prices for it usually are quite steep for reasons I haven't quite determined, since there are often several concurrently for sale all going for three figure price tags. Be that as it may, it's a delightful wear, not to mention a fantastic conversation piece, as the box and bottle was designed by a favorite artist of mine, Sol Lewitt. If this sounds like it would be a treat and you can happen upon it for under 100 bucks, do pounce on it, but I wouldn't recommend spending anything more than that.

fantastic old-school citrus scent. it is less predictable than it seems to be at first. the opening is wonderful with bergamot and lemon, not heavy or fizzy but very bright. the drydown is very interesting with a great blend of vanilla, cedar and floral notes. it's very gentle, refined yet casual and optimistic. i found this rare gem in a local store for an incredible price, but it's a 50ml splash bottle, and i HATE splash bottles!!! the performance is just good, perfect for spring and summer, for people over 25. who can wear this fragrance? well, someone classy, goodlooking and funny like templeton "faceman" peck from the a-team. not your boring citrus scent, a bit old style but still easy to wear nowadays. un profumo rinvigorente, all'italiana. scent:8,5 logevity:7 sillage:7 versatility:8,5 bottle:6,5 uniqueness: 8,5 compliment factor-7 my vote: 8,5 in one word: brightness

It ́s a small miracle but i ́ve bought this one 2 months ago from a private seller for 41 euro i believe (100 ml) - yeah that was a going back to my younger years all right, but i loved it !! initially I couldn ́t quite remember it, only that i liked it a lot back in the days when I was young and the century was the 20st...the drydown though is where i find the base of armani code is laying..same tonka vibe but whereas nina ricci is more for the warmer weather, i consider code (og) more appropriate for the colder weather... ah club for man by nina ricci i was so glad you crossed my path this year. Best for those first warmer spring days with the combo bergamot, lavender and tonka....love it !!!!If you ever come across a bottle and the price is right...don ́t hesitate...it ́s ok to loose your hairline (i do) but not to let this one slip away !! :0) 8,5/10

I used this as a teenager. Have no idea how I came about it, but strongly suspect that my father bought it for himself and I "confiscated" it the second I smelled it. I went through at least two bottles of this very dry and no-nonsense barbershop scent - which is funny, when you know that I am not only female, but also petite, with miniature hands and feet. Never smelled this again, but I would buy it in a heartbeat. I remember that it was utterly stunning.

Once, my father had to go to Mexico for his job so I asked him to buy me this perfume at the duty free shop. I had a sample of it and I had loved the scent. So on his way back home, at Mexico, my father asked for the perfume and that's when the seller replied "I'm sorry, Sir, but we don't sell the Nina Ricci perfumes for gentlemen!" That's how I knew it was a perfume for men but I bought it all the same and I enjoy wearing it once in a while.
