Character
L'Air du Temps opens with a refined aldehydic-floral burst of carnation, rose, neroli, peach and bergamot. The heart unfolds into a richly textured spicy-floral mid — historically the first to bring carnation and cloves into prominence in a feminine perfume — layered with gardenia, jasmine, ylang-ylang and violet. The dry-down rounds out with a deep base of iris, oakmoss, musk, sandalwood, amber and woods, giving the composition its timeless quietly opulent character.
Who it's for
This fragrance suits women who love classical, refined floral perfumery with serious heritage — particularly fans of spicy florals and vintage-inspired feminine signatures. It's a strong choice for everyday signature wear, evening, special occasions and gifting at milestone birthdays. The refill format also appeals to those wanting to reduce packaging waste by refilling their existing bottle.
How to wear it

- Spray onto pulse points — inner wrists, neck and behind the ears
- Two to three sprays is plenty for an EDT
- Avoid rubbing wrists together to preserve the aldehydic opening
