The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2016, L’Air du Temps Eau Sublime by Nina Ricci is a floral fragrance crafted by perfumer Calice Becker. The composition opens with the freshness of yuzu, leading into a heart dominated by carnation, white flowers, and tuberose before settling on a base of musk. This limited edition flanker of the famous L’Air du Temps captures the essence of a sumptuous, dazzling, and sensual scent that feels like second skin warmed by sunlight.
Apply two sprays to ensure the yuzu top note leads into the heart notes effectively. The fragrance blooms within an hour, so it’s best enjoyed close to skin rather than diffused through a room.
