Nina Ricci L’Air du Temps White Orchid Edition ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 22 May 2026 5 Comments

Nina Ricci has launched L’Air du Temps White Orchid Edition, a new limited edition flanker to 1948's L'Air du Temps.

It’s time to reset the conversation and unveil a new era for L’Air du Temps. Discover L’Air du Temps White Orchid Edition, the new limited-edition fragrance by Nina Ricci. More than an iconic scent, it reveals itself as a meaningful and poetic expression of modern femininity. An exclusive perfume celebrating a modern vision of femininity: the most masculine of feminine fragrances, the most feminine of masculine fragrances.

***

The opening features a blend of aquatic notes and salty accents, which give the fragrance an unexpected freshness and airiness. An intense orchid accord, complemented by jasmine, unfolds, creating a radiant and elegant floral composition. The fragrance closes with vetiver and vanilla—a combination that adds depth and warmth, leaving a long-lasting, subtly addictive trail.

Nina Ricci L'Air du Temps White Orchid Edition is available in 50 ml Eau de Parfum.

    This sounded really good until I saw “aquatic notes”. Phooey.

    Aquatic notes notwithstanding, this looks lovely.
