Rykiel

About Belle en Rykiel

Rykiel is best known for Sonia Rykiel Women from 1993, a powdery rose and iris composition that matched the Paris Left Bank designer's signature striped knitwear and literary feminist identity. Belle en Rykiel remains the most sought-after fragrance in the catalog, built on rose, iris, powder accord, jasmine, musk, sandalwood. It sits well in the designer tier, delivering projection and longevity that compare favorably with other fragrances at the same Sephora and department store price range.

Sonia Rykiel Women takes the line in a different direction. It appeals to buyers who want something from Rykiel that reads differently from the signature. L'Eau de Sonia rounds out the catalog with a third option covering women who want yet another direction in the same quality tier.
