Nina Ricci LAir du Temps Travel Edition Eau de Toilette

The emergence of this perfume marked the beginning of a new post-war era, evoking memories of romance and feminine beauty. It allows one to breathe deeply, genuinely enjoy every moment, infusing its wearer with love, magnificence, the brightest emotions, and feelings.

Romance is encapsulated in the classic floral notes of this luxurious perfume composition—rose, jasmine, and violet. Despite this, the fragrance is not purely floral and traditional but rather innovative, as perfumer Francis Fabron combined floral shades with synthetic molecules of benzyl salicylate. As a result, an original spicy-floral scent was created, becoming the progenitor of an entire series.

L'Air du Temps can be described as a classic perfume with distinctly defined top, heart, and base notes. Its structure is complex and multifaceted due to the use of interesting natural components. The fragrance is built around a clove note, which combines jasmine and rose in its bouquet, placed on a sweet amber-vanilla-woody base.
