L'Air du Temps Eau de Parfum by Nina Ricci, created by Francis Fabron in 1948, is a classic spicy floral. Flowers lead, with wood in support and lighter spicy, green, resinous and amber touches.
The notes are many and listed together. Bergamot, neroli and peach give a soft, bright and velvety opening. Carnation brings the signature clove-like spice, joined by May rose, ylang-ylang, orchid, lily and iris for a creamy, powdery and romantic bouquet. Brazilian rosewood and sandalwood add smooth wood, oakmoss and moss a green chypre depth, and benzoin, ambergris and musk a warm, soft finish.
The profile suggests a gentle, timeless scent for spring and autumn, daytime events, weddings and elegant occasions. It suits someone who loves classic, powdery spicy florals from the golden age of French perfumery, a graceful and romantic signature that has remained a reference for generations.
