L’ AIR DU TEMPS (The Air of the Moment) is the second women’s fragrance and the most popular one released by NINA RICCI PARFUMS.

NINA RICCI used to say that perfume is an art, not a commodity.

Robert Ricci used to say that L’ Air du Temps is a little olfactory miracle.

L’ Air du Temps is a refined fragrance, a pleasure fragrance for the wearer alone; it is not a show-off fragrance.

In the first half of 1980, NINA RICCI belonged to the ORLANE Group, whose stand sold its products.

Box in a light yellow glossy finish, with the dance of the angels in the foreground.

3RD EDITION

With Robert Ricci’s death in 1988, the dream effectively came to an end in the early 1990s.

This product has absolutely nothing to do with products in similar boxes, appearances, and names; we are talking about completely different products, and our people have a saying about confusing a brush with something else.
