The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 18 March 2024 8 Comments

A limited edition bottle of Nina Ricci's L'Air du Temps (you can see last year's model here) decorated by gilder Anne Brun ("Applying her vision to the emblematic L’Air du Temps bottle, she translates delicate petal details into a finely crafted gilded cage that encloses the matte white bottle, creating a golden piece of art") with a new juice developed by perfumer Sonia Constant ("Inspired by Anne Brun’s delicate gilded creations, I wanted to create a jewel-like perfume. Blending tuberose flowers dipped in gold with sophisticated woods and creamy coconut, I imagined a fragrance for a radiant woman whose inner light shines on those around her"). In 50 ml Eau de Parfum, €113 at Nina Ricci.

    Not crazy-expensive. How is the perfume itself these days?

    This was my mother’s favorite scent. I have her real glass perfume bottle with the stopper. like the new bottle but I’m leery of those gold flowers. They look like they’d break off if you held it wrong, they look barely glued on.

      I don’t know how robust they are, but you’re right it looks fragile.

    Definitely worthy of the “Bottle Porn” tag. It’s gorgeous.
