  The bottle is a super-coquettish Christmas ornament, but the scent didn’t convince me. I was looking for something sweet like a dessert, and while it is fresh and sweet, the gourmand side felt very weak. It projects a strong bergamot at the start, then drops to a subtle aroma of sweet almonds and macaron jam, but in the base it smells very common, like an aunt or a university friend. It’s a everyday scent that loses points; the trail is weak and I have to rub my wrist against my nose to smell it. We’ll see about the longevity. I wouldn’t buy it, but if it were a gift, I’d wear it happily 🙂

  Seeing it in the shop, the first thing I loved was the little bottle, which looks like a Christmas ornament and very coquettish. But the scent wasn’t what I expected: it wasn’t an edible sweet or a real dessert, but something fresh and weak. The strong bergamot is noticeable at the start, then it drops leaving a subtle aroma of sweet almonds and macaron jam, but in the background it smells very common. It reminds me of the scent of several people I know, which loses points because it isn’t unique. The trail is weak; I have to rub my wrist against my nose to smell it. I wouldn’t buy it, but if it were a gift, I’d wear it happily.

  The beautiful bottle caught my eye from the very first minute, and the fragrance too. Initially, I smell sweet, multicoloured French macarons, then raspberry and almond, all bathed in the acidic tang of bergamot and lemon. It has nothing to do with the rest of the Ninas; although the bottle is apple-shaped, there is no apple here. It projects strongly at first but softens quickly, and the longevity leaves much to be desired. It’s not serious or elegant; I wouldn’t wear it to dress up or for special occasions, but it is sweet, coquettish, youthful and very pleasant.

  The beautiful bottle attracted me from the very first second, and besides, I loved the fragrance. The first thing I notice is sweet, multicoloured French macarons, followed by raspberry and almond, all bathed in a touch of acidic bergamot and lemon… It has nothing to do with the rest of the ‘Nina’ family; in fact, although the bottle keeps the apple shape, the fruit doesn’t exist here. It has a powerful opening, but it softens quickly and longevity is not its strong suit; it leaves much to be desired. It’s not a ‘serious’ or ‘elegant’ perfume; I wouldn’t wear it to dress up or for a special occasion, but it is sweet, coquettish, youthful and very pleasant.

  WOW, this is pure temptation. The fragrance is exquisite, sexy and addictive, although it stays in the middle ground between the common and the special. I love that it is gourmand; the raspberry and lemon with bergamot temper the sweetness so it doesn’t feel heavy, while the almond note almost disappears amongst the vanilla, sandalwood and musk. It’s a balanced scent that sparks interest and addiction in the opposite sex. It’s timeless, ideal for evening wear and for women aged 25 and over. It transforms a normal girl into a very sexy woman. I recommend it 😉

  At first it smells like YSL Parisienne, then Lolita Lempicka but without the tobacco.

  WOW! This is pure temptation. It steps out of the ordinary but not too far, landing right in the middle ground; it’s exquisite, sexy and addictive. I’d love to wear it on a date. It draws attention and is great for starting a conversation. It’s gourmand; I detect plenty of raspberry, lemon and bergamot which temper the sweetness. The almond note almost disappears amidst the vanilla, sandalwood and musk, making it sweet without being heavy. It sparks interest. It’s timeless, better for evening wear and for women aged 25 and over. It transforms an ordinary woman into a very sexy one. I recommend it.

  Very gourmand, nothing like the previous Ninas. Smells like sweet macaron and raspberry, tastes delicious, pity it doesn’t last long on the skin.

  Lovely, though the trail is moderate. Ideal for spring and summer. Not formal or seductive, but perfect for a sunny day out with friends. It’s gourmand and fresh, simply charming.

  Colourful beans! Yes… it smells very much like those sweet little beans (as we call them here in Chile). I really like this perfume; it’s very rich, coquettish, sweet and fresh at the same time. I can’t resist the raspberry note, which is clearly perceptible here, very fresh combined with lemon and yet sweet without being cloying. It’s a very youthful perfume (more than I’d like :D), but I still feel a great temptation to buy it… perhaps in spring.

  A simple and pretty perfume, although in my opinion, nothing extraordinary. I detect raspberry from start to finish; in the mid-notes, I smell something similar to macarons, though not very well executed; the base is citrusy and very reminiscent of the original Nina Ricci, the Red Berry one. Overall, I’ve liked the perfume, but honestly, I’d only buy it for the bottle, which is lovely =)

  A very youthful fragrance whose smell frankly reminds me of strawberry chewing gum. It doesn’t seem elegant or imposing to me, nor would I buy it as part of my toiletries. I see it more as a niche perfume, sweet and childish. Suitable for a very young audience or for those who like to add a sweet touch to their look with their scent.

  It’s a super youthful fragrance that frankly smells like strawberry bubblegum. It doesn’t seem elegant or imposing to me, nor something I’d keep in my dressing table. I see it more as a childish perfume, sweet and cute, made for a very young audience or for someone who wants to add a sweet touch to their look with the aroma.

  This perfume is a real temptation! From the visual appeal of the bottle to the scent: sweet, soft, delicate… I loved it!

  Well. Let’s start with the bottle: it’s beautiful, delicate, youthful and overly feminine. The fragrance itself is a real temptation! I was fascinated by it; it suits my style perfectly. Youthful, fresh, sweet and above all, GOURMAND! 10 points!!

  Nina’s Temptation is an affirmation of the harmonious-conflictual conceptual tension that defines the Nina line. Temptation opens with a very sober and discreet bergamot, light and sensitive; a citrus of little complexity that serves as a prelude to the core. The heart is the most striking part, as well mentioned; Nina’s Temptation doesn’t share any reminiscence with the rest of the line’s fragrances. It embodies a sweet and cloying burst due to the excessive concentration of macarons; and while the strategy of using acidic and fresh notes (lemon and rose) to generate dimensionality and avoid excessive sweetness is normal in this line, I regret that using almonds didn’t work (Nina’s Temptation is cloying). The heart is a sharp, high-rigor sweet with a spicy and vigorous background; it seems the components combined from glycosidic links, thanks to monosaccharide membranes. The base is a scarce complement to the heart’s spectrum; the only thing that will stand out is the vanilla, since, on my skin, sandalwood and musk are nothing more than catalysts that favour a better sillage and projection (which remain reproachable). The discordant complexion between components is noticeable; clearly there’s an accidental (?) abuse of macarons, as well as an over-limitation of citrus, without mentioning that the almonds enhance the macaron content considerably, causing them to acquire an edge and pierce the nasal cavities, all mixed with a disorienting citrus border. The best use was the rose, in my opinion, and it’s that the touch of freshness and freedom is something appreciable in the experience this perfume comprises. Temptation isn’t a particularly serious, mature, artistic, well-balanced or elegant fragrance, but it’s simple, carefree, cheerful and fundamentally fun. Appropriate for the lightness and naturalness of jovial, smiling afternoons. Inspired by the Little Red Riding Hood tale, as well as the sweetness that overflows from youth and innocence (literally). A bit more sillage and longevity would have helped make this perfume more special, something a bit distinguished… But simply, it’s just an ‘It’s okay’.

  Tentation de Nina is a conceptual paradox that breaks the Nina line. It begins with a sober, light bergamot, a simple citrus that introduces the body of the fragrance. The heart is the most striking part: it has nothing to do with the rest of the collection. It is a sweet, cloying explosion due to the excess of macarons. Although the brand uses lemon and rose to balance the sweetness, here the almonds fail and the result is cloying. It is a sharp, vigorous sweet scent, as if the ingredients had been mixed up chemically. The base is scarce; only the vanilla stands out, while the sandalwood and musk on my skin only help to improve the trail and projection, though they remain disappointing. The blend is discordant: it seems like an abuse of macarons with disoriented citrus and almonds that give it an edge, pricking the nose. The only thing that works is the rose, which adds freshness and freedom. It is not serious, mature or elegant, but it is simple, carefree, cheerful and fun. It suits cheerful afternoons and is inspired by the innocence of Little Red Riding Hood. It would have needed more trail and longevity to be special, but in the end it is just an ‘okay’.

  Packaging: This plush fuchsia apple, soft to the touch and so feminine, has a golden touch, which shows it’s a true temptation. Its golden eyes finish off making this little bottle what we’ve always wanted to hold in our hands, transporting us to a world of sweetness. Where the inner child merges with the mature young woman, in a landscape of macarons and desserts, as if we were in Versailles before Marie Antoinette herself. Then to use it on a date, a special night, in short, on our most important moments. And what about the scent, which previous reviews haven’t mentioned… I love this fragrance. Particularly, I like to wear it on the coldest days (autumn-winter).

  The bottle is a plush, fuchsia little apple, soft and super feminine, with a golden touch that screams temptation. Its gold details make it irresistible, as if whisking us away to a sweet world where the inner child mingles with the mature woman, set against a backdrop of macarons and desserts, Versailles-style with Marie Antoinette herself. Perfect for dates or special nights, those key moments. And as for the scent… everyone has said it, but I love it. I wear it a lot in autumn and winter when it’s cold.

  Overrated for what it actually is. Just mix lemon with sugar and vanilla and it smells more like Nina’s Temptation. I’ve never connected with any perfume from this brand; they all seem ordinary, overrated and very similar, plus excessively popular. There are far better gourmands on the market for the same or lower price… As for sillage and longevity, they’re decent enough, though not tragically poor like all the Nina line perfumes I know. Re-reading my review, it seems quite negative as if I hated the perfume, but the truth is I don’t dislike it. I wouldn’t buy it, but if someone gifted it to me, I’d wear it happily. I’d recommend it as a gift for young people experimenting with their first perfumes, or for someone looking for a sweet daily scent (and who won’t mind spending that money on something like this) hahaha. Note: 5/10

  Sounds a bit dull to me, I don’t know why, but I’ll give it a chance. It feels very synthetic; the acidity is quite noticeable, like an overripe raspberry.
