Description
The recently presented collection of fragrances by Mila Schon – Time Collection was inspired by fashion through decades of the last century. This collection connects art and creations by the house of Mila Schon, the history of which begins in 1958 in Milan.
Her fashion, creations and style are defined by a subtle game of contrasts and this is where her secret lies. Functionality of form and substance characteristic for the 50es of the 20th ct originate from turmoil of artistic expression to entrepreneurship activities in Milan. These were crucial years for Mila Schon’s career since she started working during economic boom in Italy. She has always known what she wants since the beginning of the career: her fashion was actually a reflection of her personal choice and good taste – precise, with clear lines, simple and elegant.
The fragrant collection introduced in 2009 is connected directly to history of the house and its creations. The fragrances are named after decades and their compositions are connected with a certain period of time. Glass flacons of the collection have the same design but different colours. Their front and back sides are transparent, while their sides are matt.
Time Collection `70 arrives in an orange flacon. Top notes are coloured with citruses – tangerine and Calabrian bergamot along with spicy pepper. A heart introduces fruity-floral nuances of lily of the valley, Turkish rose, jasmine and apricot, while a warm base hides white musk, Australian sandalwood, vanilla and patchouli.

This is a pleasant woody-vanilla fragrance. I bought it blind, since the Mila Schon brand isn’t sold in stores here. If you’re expecting much citrus or floral from this, you’ll be disappointed, but for a warm, vanilla sandalwood, this would be a good choice.

The Main Accords starts with POWDERY??? Nonsense. Smooth and velvety like apricot skin. Sweet, but not cloying. Fruit grounded by the bergamot and the touch of sandalwood. Linear but very pleasant to wear. Bought this EDP as a blind buy on super clearance with no knowledge of this house and find I like it.

I own and have tried the 70ś, 80´s and 90´s “time collection” and this is the most attractive to my nose of them all. The 90´s is too unisex, even more masculine, than feminine; the 80´s is a light and innofensive apple scent; the 70´s is a sweet mix of apricot jam, vanilla and sandalwood. It is very linear and does not associates in my mind with 70´s in any way. Maybe they are more bound to some periods in Mila Schön´s fashiion house, but not to the typical fragrances of those eras (except 90´s maybe).
I can´t write much about this perfume, except that it has a good sillage and lasting power. It also reminds me of something, i have smelled in the past, but very modern scented vanilla scent. Really nice one and good for autumn-winter.
Keeping this one.
P.S. OH! I have finally realized what it reminds me of: Yves Rocher “Vanilla noire”! The good vanilla!!! Yes, quite close to each other.
