Sadly, very few so-called timeless classics ever work on me – I seem to be cursed (or blessed?) with the kind of skin, that works mostly with zeitgeist and the perfumes of “now and possibly tomorrow”. Particularly badly my chemistry interacts with powdery scents. My skin kills completely the following perfumes, so much loved by many: Anais Anais, Fidji, Rive Gauche ( it takes some time, but there’s always very little left of what it’s supposed to be ) and L’air du temps is, sadly, no exception. At first there’s powder, something yellow and a little green, and 5 minutes later – NOTHING. Just powder , if I shamelessly drench the whole arm with the tester at a drugstore in a fruitless attempt to experience the glorified beauty of this classic. Who knows – it is only the hype? Or is it my chemistry? Is it the new reformulation that is to blame? The end result is – I can simply spray air on my wrist, the effect will be exactly the same. If I come across a vintage bottle – will give it a go and get back with an update.

Get the edp if you can as the staying power is brilliant. What can I say, a classic, clovey carnation. Beautiful, feminine, unmistakable – wonderful, just wonderful

This was one of my grandmother’s favourite fragrances, so I will always have a bottle in my collection for this reason alone. I also like the history and inspiration behind it, and the fact that it has been worn loyally by so many women since its inception.
I understand that this fragrance lost something of its essence due to modern reformulation requirements, and I currently only have a modern EDT version to hand. Its current incarnation smells like powdery citrus to me, quite sheer, perfectly pleasant, great for warm weather and pretty much any occasion. I can’t see this offending anyone’s fragrance sensibilities and I also do not think that this smells like something reserved for the mature set.
The reason I haven’t awarded full points is that this fragrance only has very average lasting power on my skin and seems to go pretty much unnoticed by everyone. Once my bottle is finished I will seek out the parfum version in the hopes of a bit more oomph.
This classic is definitely worth a try, and probably a real winner for citrus and powder lovers who do not want an overwhelming scent, but simply a low-key, affable one.
