Top accords read floral, sweet, fruity, fresh and citrus. Prices run $29 to $125, averaging about $59. Standout live picks: L'Air du Temps Parfum (soft florals, honeyed spices, mossy sandalwood; $29.39), the 1948 heritage anchor and still a critical reference for post-war French florals, Les Belles de Ricci Liberty Fizz (sparkling mint and citrus, tomato-leaf garden freshness; $89), Les Belles de Ricci (chilled garden herbs with sweet raspberry fig; $31.90), Nina (1987) (fresh green rose powder, musky moss; $56.53), and Nina Precious Gold (warm vanilla custard with almond and citrus zest; $45.49). L'Air du Temps is the collector reference point.
