Launched in 2007, L'Eau du Temps by Nina Ricci is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance crafted by Jean Guichard and Aurélien Guichard. The composition opens with the brightness of bergamot and mandarin orange before transitioning into a heart of tuberose and jasmine, which add layers of floral complexity. The base notes of musk and amber create a warm, enveloping finish that lingers on the skin long after application. This fragrance is designed to be both fresh and comforting, making it suitable for day or night.

Application Tips
Apply L'Eau du Temps to pulse points and let it develop naturally. The citrus top notes are bright but fleeting, so it's best to rely on the floral heart and musky base for lasting warmth. This fragrance reads better close to skin than from a distance, making it perfect for an intimate setting.
