The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

L’Air du Ciel by Nina Ricci, launched in 2019, is a Floral Fruity Gourmand fragrance crafted by perfumers Louise Turner and Natalie Gracia-Cetto. The composition opens with the bright freshness of mandarin orange and bergamot, balanced by the aromatic complexity of petitgrain and neroli. These top notes create an immediate sense of clarity and lightness. As the scent evolves, honey and bitter almond add warmth and depth, while tonka bean and white musk ground it in a gourmand embrace that feels both familiar and comforting.

How to wear it

Apply L’Air du Ciel in light sprays — its bright top notes are fleeting but impactful. The gourmand base notes will linger throughout the day, making it ideal for daytime wear when you want a scent that feels fresh and comforting.
