Outlet Nina Ricci L’Air du Temps

L’Air du Temps is a warm, floral, woody scent created for Women in 1948 by perfumer Francis Fabron.

Review

This scent is soft and feminine, with an elegant floral composition that has an ever-so-soft soapy essence to it in the best way. Mysore Sandalwood brings a gentle warmth that allows this scent to develop with some depth, without becoming too rich. It creates a sense of calm and a reflective sophistication that defies age. It is a scent that can be worn any time, place, or setting, for any occasion, and in any season. It will transition well between casual and formal affairs, and is perfect for any time you want to feel a sense of romance. Though it is soft, it will last. It is said to share similarities with Chanel N.5.

Inspiration

L’Air du Temps is the embodiment of peace, love, and freedom. Doves adorn the bottle as a symbol of purity, and the elegant floral composition is an ode to love and romance.

Notes

The floral composition of this scent is like a living, breathing thing. Each note takes its turn before blending into a gloriously beautiful bouquet. Carnation, Gardenia, Rose, and Jasmine create an elegant, ever-so-slightly soapy, subtle spicy, essence that captures your attention and your heart. Mysore Sandalwood adds depth and warmth, without ever stealing the show from the flowers.AI final note of Iris comes into play at the end, bringing a gentle green floral essence that blends right in with the over floral tone.
