In 2015, the Nina Ricci brand presented the L’Extase fragrance to us. This was his third pillar essence with Air of Time and Nina .

This highly prestigious juice then revealed a madly erotic image to us. In short, he encouraged “release your fantasies”. Also, the Nina Ricci brand has just announced the revisiting of this perfume which is already classed as a must-have in the house. Thus, L’Extase Caresse de Roses will be released by March 2016 and is announced as being a clearer and lighter interpretation of its predecessor. However, don’t get me wrong, this one still plays a lot on her charm and sensuality.

Nina Ricci’s erotic advertising campaign

Before even smelling the scent of L’Extase, the tone was set by the Nina Ricci brand. Indeed, in order to embody the erotic sensuality of its essence, the creation house had called on the Corsican model Laetitia Casta. It was staged in a beautiful one-minute commercial signed by Gordon Von Steiner. The beauty then saw herself immediately bewitched by the mysterious charm of Quim Gutiérrez. Both found themselves alone for a short time in an elevator. Admittedly the scene is a little cliché but it must be recognized that there is no more beautiful place to give free rein to the fantasies! The simple fact of touching the hand of the handsome man in her company was enough for Laetitia Casta to plunge into an erotic dream. In sheets of pure and immaculate white, the actress then simulated an orgasm, thus giving life to L’Extase. This was underlined by Portishead’s languid title, Glory Box. The tone was set. All the women had to do then was to let themselves go and listen to their desires by getting drunk on the subtle smell of this perfume. Also, on the occasion ofthe arrival of the new Ecstasy Caresse de Roses , it is again the same muse who will be responsible for lending her image to the sensuality of Nina Ricci.

The carnal scent of L’Extase Caresse de Roses

In order to make this new juice, the house Nina Ricci once again called on the talented perfumer Francis Kurkdjian. The latter then imagined a huge floral bouquet. The idea was to take inspiration from a naked body just covered with a scented veil to create an absolutely captivating essence. Ecstasy Caresse de Roses is an ode to femininity. He plays with his sensuality and his poetry to release the most secret desires of women. The idea is then to be yourself… In short, to be laid bare. He thus plunges us into a particularly carnal imaginary journey. To do this, L’Extase Caresse de Roses consists of one of the most feminine ingredients: the Damanesca rose. This gives off a floral, lemony, and very fresh scent. Its impact is thus fusing and very energizing. Furthermore, this delicate flower is associated with the clearer and powdery appearance of the violet. Peony, for its part, brings its share of elegance and purity. It nevertheless wants to be sweeter than the rose. Finally, L’Extase Caresse de Roses displays its strong temperament through the presence of musk. This strong-smelling ingredient then delivers an almost animal scent and thus plunges this perfume into an absolutely exquisite sensuality.
