L’ AIR DU TEMPS (The Spirit of the Moment) is the second women’s fragrance and the most popular one launched by the NINA RICCI PARFUM house

This particular product was launched in 1985 and was named Young Romantic.

NINA RICCI said that perfume is art, not a commodity.

Robert Ricci said that L’ Air du Temps is a little olfactory miracle.

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

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

Light yellow glossy box, with the dance of the angels in the foreground.

Ribbed cylindrical bottle with a gold-colored metal frame.

The packaging and exceptional glass bottle were designed by Marc Lalique (French glassmaker); the crystal bottles (lead glass), a French luxury, were made by Pochet du Courval under the HP trademark, a world leader in luxury perfume glass packaging.

The product was distributed in Greece by SPEL SA Perfumery (SPYROS LITOS – PHARMACIST), 7 Pal. Patron Germanou St. – Klafthmonos Sq. – Athens, and we had exclusive sales rights as authorized distributors.
