Le Temps D'Une Fete
Eau de Toilette
by PARFUMS DE NICOLAI



The Scoop
Green florals seem to be disappearing species; we have been waiting for a long time for a new release that would pay homage to this sublimely elegant genre. Thanks to the classically refined Parfums de Nicolaï line, we now have the green floral scent we so greatly desired. Le Temps D'Une Fête, the latest offering by Patricia de Nicolaï, celebrates the eternal spring, marrying the delicate aroma of spring flowers with the aromatic greenness of leaves and grass. The glorious, deep verdancy of the top notes of galbanum, mastic and hyacinth is a nod to the great classic scents of the golden age of perfumery. The heart is an ode to narcissus, the seemingly innocent little flower whose fragile petals hide a dark, almost animalic side. The base notes make us giddy with delight with their earthy-mossy, again sublimely classic quality. Le Temps D'Une Fête is a Perfume with capital P, a delight for those of us who are longing for the graceful and harmonious scents of the days past.

I lurve Le Temps d'Une Fete. For me, it's a fragrance of impressions. I can't pull out notes necessarily, but it's very evocative. It's definitely green and conjures up bucolic imagery, but it also brings to mind a different time. In the dry down there is something "intimate." It's difficult to describe- it's brings to mind a time before the ritual of the daily shower, when fragrances weren't worn on recently washed bodies and took on a layered quality. Some may find this "old lady" (I didn't even want to write the phrase because I dislike it so much); I certainly don't, but I will say it brings to mind a time when people put on real pants and shoes to leave the house.

Beautiful green floral chypre that's as smooth as silk. Delicate, breezy green florals anchored by a moody, mossy base, where neither one overpowers the othe. A beautiful example of LOTV for those who love this note (I used to hate it in fragarnces but this and PdN's Eclipse made me change my mind). PdN offers top quality fragrances at comparatively low prices and this is a prime example. Truly beautiful

All i could smell was incense the first time, now i smell some sharp green notes, but ultimately this is far too sharp and masculine for me.

This is my new favorite perfume. It is a truly beautiful green-floral fragrance with a very classic, not "old-lady," feel. For those who would dismiss it as such, give it another try! Maybe you didn't like other things at first, either--sushi, black coffee. It's gorgeous.

Just not my taste. It's Okay. It should be on the scale closer to "Unisex". i could actually see a man wearing this.

Unfortunately for me, this scent reminded me of old ladies, and was very chemical-smelling. I can see how its complexity and green-ness are pretty, but something about it was just a bit too old-fashioned for me.

This is a positively charming fragrance, classical and almost unbearably beautiful. Hay notes make it pastoral. Garlands of flowers, hazy-sunshine mid-summer.... There is something a bit "dense" about it, the same way a hot field in summer smells so intensely. It almost makes me sneeze. Love it. Bought a bottle after sampling and will cherish it for a long time.

Yes, Kari (below) is right -- the EdP would be perfect. This is lovely, but fades too quickly to a pastel sketch of itself.

This is a stunner, one of the top 10 scents I've ever sampled. Certianly the number one spot of all floral greens I've tried, I even prefer this over Guerlain's Apres L'ondee, only because it lasts longer on my skin and the green notes really work for me. I wish this came in an EDP, however, as the EDT still does not last as long as I would like.

Le Temps d'une Fete is just beautiful. A lovely, classic green floral, it makes me think of grassy meadows whose hollows hold billowing flowers. The drydown is shadowed by cool mossy trees. This one makes me very happy, and I'll be wearing it all summer.

"Le temps d'une fête" is a very charming composition. This little wonder exalts a narcissus vanilla hyacinth accord on a base of invisible resins and balms. Its loveliness lasts very long, wich make me feel the perfume is very well-balanced, adding the quality shown in all "parfum de Nicolaï", you got a perfume that give you a lasting pleasure. This perfume don't make you feel it is made for matching with your personnality, but it's quality and its aura make it really worth to buy. Don't listen the last review : parfum de Nicolaï is 25% cheaper than main brand (per ml), and the quality is their contrary to most of perfume found in Sephora.

Not me either - too wishy washy and way too expensive .

Another winner from PDN. The green freshness is balanced by soft, powdery floral notes, and the entire effect is of quiet but fully dimensional radiance. After testing I purchased a full bottle and happily so.

This is a gorgeous and elegant scent. Starts off green, with narcissus and other florals softly emerging, on a subtle woody base. Great bone structure. Reminiscent of Chanel No. 19, but less aloof, and without the leather. I only wish it lasted longer on my skin.

Well....this one sounded interesting based upon the description, but twas not to be for me! Thank God for those good old LuckyScent samples. On my skin, this fragrance is a bit too marine-like and old-fashioned for my tastes. I can't figure out which notes create that feeling for me, possibly the oakmoss(?). This would have been a bit nicer if there more sandalwood notes shining through.
