Les Belles de Ricci Belle de Minuit by Nina Ricci is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women. Les Belles de Ricci Belle de Minuit was launched in 2000. The nose behind this fragrance is Cecile Matton. Top notes are Orange, Black Currant, Grapefruit and Bergamot; middle notes are Carnation, Heliotrope, Jasmine and Lily-of-the-Valley; base notes are Tonka Bean, Myrhh and Sandalwood. Midnight beauty, romantic and provocative; gentle during day, but filled with wish for life and heated passion during night. The wish of the Nina Ricci house’s designers was to offer a fragrance full of surprises. Perfumer Cecile Matton helped them in that she created “Belle de Minuit”, a floral-woody cocktail. Citrusy notes open this perfume. Sweet bergamot, gentle sourish grapefruit, orange and blackberry tingle with their sourish-fresh notes, while orange blossom, lily of the valley, fresh and sweet jasmine and warm, vanilla-like heliotrope play seductively in the heart. The balmy-woody base soothes the passions with help of sandalwood, myrrh and warm, intensive Tonka. “Belle de Minuit” appears in a metallic blue bottle with a red crown and is available as a limited edition for 2000, in an amount of 50 ml.
