I came across this perfume while looking through a magazine and was instantly hooked. A few weeks later, I received it as a birthday gift and I'm absolutely in love! I own lots of different fragrances and this one is definitely a favorite :) I've gotten lots of compliments on it and my boyfriend just adores it, too.

I picked this up at a duty free shop the last time I traveled. The scent is quite nice as I love fruity scents, thought it can "feel" a bit on the sweet side (as opposed to something like 212 on ice, which I also love, is also fruity, but has a bit of spice mixed it). A little seems to go a very long way, which is not bad, as I usually have the opposite problem with fragrances not lasting as long as I wish they would. The bottle is great, too. I would buy it again, but definitely, I prefer it for winter than for warmer weather as the smell can feel a bit overpowering when it's hot.

When I first smelt this I loved it but I’ve been using it for almost a year now and it gets boring gradually I do get compliments from other people but only when it lasts long enough for anyone to notice, saying that when you first spray it it’s extremely strong actually irritated my nose nd the people I stood next too on public transport LOL but the smell itself is gorgeous and addictive I’m not too good with notes but it is sweet but refreshingly sweet not sickly not cotton candy a sophisticated sweet I think I’ll give it a bit of break so I can fall back in love with it ..

I was never into wearing perfumes until I stumbled across this one in an ad in a magazine. I went to the store immediately and tried some on, and I was instantly in love with it! This is my FAVORITE perfume, hands down. I am not one that likes strong scents, or anything too heavy. I used to only use body sprays. But this scent got me hooked. I have never found another perfume I liked as well as this one. It's my signature scent. I spray one spray of this perfume in the morning, around my neck area, and it is just enough for me.

The BEST perfume... in the world... ever! I am the type that is constantly buying new fragrance hoping it will be "the one" but once I'm half through the bottle, I'm over it. I'm now on my third bottle of Nina and can't get enough! It is sweet, flirty, sexy.... perfect!

Sephora description: "The fragrance incorporates top notes of Calabrese Lemon and Cipirinha Lime for a sparkling and spontaneous beginning. Midnotes of Red Toffee Apple and Vanilla Infusion create a charming and seductive femininity and Moonflower and Peony Petals add gentle and delicate breath. Rounding it out are base notes of Apple Tree Wood and Cotton Musk ending in a tender sensual caress."

I can only describe it as a sexy candy apple, lol, which does not do it justice. It's light and fruity and seductive all at the same time. I love it and so does my husband.

BTW this is the first real perfume I've purchased because I fell in love with the scent. Before this I was kinda anti-perfume and only used lotions for scent.

I have to admit I was attracted to this because of the pretty bottle. Upon first sniff at the store I didn't like it at all, it was just too sweet. But, I ended up getting a sample of it in a kit, and fell in love. I wouldn't call it an everyday scent, it's a little too strong and sweet for that, but I use it as my "special" scent, when I just want to feel glamorous and special.
Edit: 1/1/09 I was wrong - I actually wear this every day now. I gave it a rest for summer, but in the colder months it's just perfect. It also has great lasting power. This is a definite keeper!

How inlove with this am I? VERY!

I honestly think it's like a miracle love-potion to attract guys! He he... It smells fruity , maybe a bit too strong and sweet at first ( im not into overly sweet fragrances ) , but goes on quite subtle after a while. The staying power is not as powerful as Id like to , but it's worth the price . If you're looking to mesmerise a particular guy ( without him quite knowing what it makes his head spin like that around you ) , go for this one , girls :-D

what a pleasant smell, what a perfume of sheer cuteness, loveliness. This is a woman who has not grown up, and I am planning to wear this when I'm seventy, too. (My years in between will be spent in my vain search for a signature scent) On me, Nina does not have the distinctive notes of apples or toffee, but comes with a unique fragrance that connotes both innocence and naughtiness. the slightly floral undertones separate her from her sweeter sisters. The only downfall: on me, the staying power of this heavenly smell is less than zero. I once went through a whole 100 ml. bottle in a month (and left an expression of bliss on many men:)) Therefore, it boils down to be an expensive fragrance for me. Still, I would bathe in it if I could.
