I cannot understand why Ricci would drop this treasure and replace it with the appalling sweet new scent. Can we form a committee to have it brought back?

Everything about it is just perfect, and I also love the way you describe Ricci's dress design: elegance is always of prime concern, speaking personally, and if I see a dress I love, I simply have to try it on, and somehow I know if it's really "me" or if it looks wrong.

Nina's bottle reminds me of a chic bobbed haircut, and I have often wondered if it is meant to be Madame Ricci's own bob...
