Fragrance information:

Farouche Nina Ricci, introduced to the world in 1973, is officially considered a feminine fragrance, falling within the chypre and floral families. The fragrance is presented as perfume extract.

It carries a moderate sillage, leaving a trail that lingers pleasantly in the air. It stays on the skin for a good while — longevity is firmly in the moderate range. Made in France, backed by a long and proud tradition. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The composition of Farouche evolves as a layered story, where accents shift without rush and without gaps. The signature of Nina Ricci is recognizable in details that define the fragrance identity. No excess details, only what works, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Perfume extract sets a balanced rhythm of unfolding.

From the group perspective the structure relies on Fairy, Citrus, Green and Fruit. It also reaches into Spicy, Aromatic, Floral and Whiteflower.

From the first breath you detect radiant lemon-bergamot opening notes: Aldehydes, Bergamot, Galbanum and Mandarin.

In the central layer you meet Cardamom, Clary Sage, Clove, Geranium, Iris and Jasmine carrying a harmonious floral direction.

The accord architecture is shaped by these accords: Aromatic, Citrus, Floral and Fruit forming a compact and readable structure. Background accords such as Musc, Wood, Powdery and Amber enrich the profile without taking over. The stylistic positioning is feminine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived. In wear duration Middle points to a sustained drydown presence.

Overall Farouche sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
Medium (2 to 5 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

How wonderful this is! The pyramid is simply mesmerizing! The only thing that might be a little concerning is the lily. And clary sage too, if there's too much of it. But, honestly, back then they couldn't create anything bad ))

The scent turned out to be quite dense, almost intrusive. I feel like it's a bit oppressive to me. I can't figure out if I like it or not. There seems to be something interesting about it, but at the same time, it feels like it's weighing me down

This fragrance is a real find! The pyramid is simply astonishing, it feels like it was created to bring joy. You can feel that a lot of soul has been put into it. A true dream, not just a perfume

In the 80s, I first experienced this fragrance and immediately fell in love with it. It was truly unique, mysterious, and left an amazing sillage. I recently stumbled upon it in a vintage perfume shop, and, lo and behold, it's still the same as it used to be! Although the price is, of course, steep, it's worth it! 🎉
