Right smack in the middle of Bill Blass original (vintage) and the vintage Jean Nate splash. Familiar and fresh at the same time, like finding a great new cover of an old favorite song.

Looking at the Perfume Pyramid one will assume it is very busy fragrance, when in fact it is just lovely and simple, and all notes are co-working well so this fragrance smells unique.
It reminds me of my youth…when my auntie brought back from Spain lots of fragrances and one of them was Aire Loewe. Now I own one small bottle of this fantastic fragrance and when I wish to chill I spray Loewe. It also reminds me of Barcelona…where you can smell it on the streets, in the Spanish air when you pass elegant Spanish woman.

On a quest again to find a summer perfume???? Surely I am, since very bored of my go for dkny energizing fragrance as well as Davidoff Cool Water for ladies..
Today, I am testing Marjolaine, and this perfume, and putting Marjolaine back in the closet!
Aire is back in the liked section, and maybe very maybe it will be loved this summer if it behaves well in the heat of a city of Budapest. As in, does not turn into a hay stag smell for rabbits in a pine forest. One can hope!!!!

Best fragrance for women ever

I recently fell in love with Aire — an incredibly addictive thick, bitter, medicinal shot of sunshine.
Pungent and smooth and refreshing and contradictory. Like an herbal tincture brewed by monks 1200 years ago that I want to consume in midwinter to dispel foul humors.

I used to wear this scent in my student-days (20 years ago?). I remember it as an unusual crisp and green perfume with a hint of bitterness, closely related to “Wrappings” by Clinique and “Cristalle edp” by Chanel. Fresh but the opposite of boring. Nothing “old lady”-ish about it. More “strong woman”-like.

Aire is such a weird little gem.
It’s green, but it’s not light. The fragrance has some heft to it in the style of 1980’s fragrances. This is the green floral that came from the same era as Ungaro Diva and CK Obsession. It’s not a delicate, whisper of a fragrance.
Aire has vibes of other fragrances – there’s something that reminds me of the most wearable Chanel and there’s something that reminds me of Cabotine. Yet, it stands on its own as a complicated, slightly soapy, fragrance.
Lovely and uncommon outside of Spain – it’s one that feels a little bit dated but still quite wearable.

Un succès en Espagne depuis son lancement en 1985. Le flacon n’a d’ailleurs pas changé depuis cette date. Des aldéhydes, en veux-tu en voilà, pour une composition très sensuelle, ensoleillée et persistante. Belle harmonie entre les notes fruitées de départ et le cœur floral ( jasmin sour bien travaillé).

Please don’t believe department stores sellers when they tell you this perfume is discontinued. It is still in production, but you have to put more effort to get it. It is available in most Loewe stores. Or you can search for a vintage bottle, although the new one smells Divine.

I just adore this fragrance for the spring and summer. It’s not always easy to get in the UK so I always stock up when I go to Spain. It’s as much a classic as Chanel No5. It’s quite inoffensive so if you prefer a more ‘statement’ perfume then this one isn’t for you. It’s fresh initially but dries down to a warmer tone and on me has good staying power. Love it!

sophisticated and lovely, discountinued in my country 🙁

This is my signature summer scent. Great for Southern Europe lovers of all things Mediterranean. Suits a more olive skin. Is the antithesis or anything mild and meek and English. Incredibly inviting, confident, refreshing, alluring, fresh, clean and sexy. For someone who takes care of their summer appearance.

I was surprised to find myself wearing this today. It had been (another) blind buy, and based on the description I was really expecting something else. After applying it rather liberally to my pulse points I did spend a few moments smelling like household cleanser, but shortly thereafter it settled into a polite, clean scent that I immediately recognized as European. I realized I have smelled this on the woman beside me on the Barcelona metro, the lady behind me in line at the Polish supermarket, the housekeeper in my Romanian hotel. It’s certainly not a traditional “old lady” scent, but rather it is, as of today, a middle-aged scent mainly being worn by women remembering their youth. I might set it aside for a spring day when I too am in my fifties…

It starts powedery,a bit more etherial than L’air du Temps.

I definitely have to thank the lady who sold this to me. This smells beautiful, just like what color yellow must smell like. I’d say it is Paco Rabanne Calandre’s baby sister, less edgy, softer, fresher opening, but the same soapy-floral heavenly dry down. I risked a blind buy because I wanted to see how the nose of Angel and Light Blue would make use of aldehyde. I must say he really did well. Staying power is mighty impressive, 6 hours on my skin and it is still hanging on, getting stronger and better. Unlike other aldehyde fragrances, this isn’t too formal and stuffy. It is flirty, airy, fresh, definitely lovable. I don’t want to jinx it but I have a feeling that this will be a favorite of mine.

Goes a bit soapy on me and smells dated, puts me in mind of a 2nd rate First by Van Cleef & Arpels.

Just bought Aire while on vacation in Spain. It has a green, soapy/aldehydic freshness to it. It’s very clean and refreshing, yet it is more a perfume than an eau fraiche. There is also a metallic quality that reminds me of Paco Rabanne’s classic Calandre and YSL’s Rive Gauche. I wouldn’t say it smells modern, with the aldehydes there is really a classic vibe going on, yet the powdery clean trail might please younger customers as well.
Aire has the feeling of a crisp white shirt.
IGORLevashof – :
Every woman in Spain was wearing days during the 90’s, it’s still a hugely popular fragrance. It’s soft yet fresh, I love it more than anything because in Spain it’s considered a classic, but in me the dry down is too soapy. I agree with previous reviewers that you need the right chemistry for it.
abdul – :
That’s a beauty.
What a shame that I can’t find it in my country, have last few drops of it.
It’s kinda fresh but with warm undertones.
Dry down gives an expensive soap smell which I like very much.
Important thing about this one – you need to have right chemistry to wear it, otherwise Aire would smell sour and unpleasant (unfortunately on my friend it does smell so).
Very intimate fragrance.
Olivier Cresp made (another) great job with this one.

Very old crazy cat lady scent!
I had just a sample and as soon as i sprayed it on I slaped myself on the face:bad bad girl!
Past it on to my mother in law heheh

Summer 2011 I’ve bought a special edition, with a leather ‘coat’ on the bottle, 100 ml. In a perfume shop in Figueras, Spain. The city with the Salvador Dali museum and his nice collection of art. Like his paintings, old black car, furniture in the shape of the face of Marilyn Monroe. A nice and cosy museum.
krutoj – :
I think, like with Ma Griffe, or Vent Verte, you have to have the right chemistry for this fragrance.
The opening is fresh and green, and a little bitter. It’s quite uplifting actually. I do detect the aldehydes, green notes, citrus, and some jasmine. As it dries down, it becomes a leathery, slightly citric floral on me. At this point, I can’t detect any of the individual floral notes.
The closest thing I can compare it to is an opening similar to Vent Verte with a dry-down similar to (but much softer than) Libertine.
alexcot – :
it’s really a shame not to find more about this fragrance market … really good, fresh but at the same time romantic. I love it
qsh419bedyWelty – :
I love the green but that very quickly fades on me and what is left is a strange scent that I can’t really take. It is reminiscent of Dior’s J’adore which is one of my ‘can’t stands’ when I smell it on anybody. I remember being on holiday in Spain as a teenager in the 80s and smelling bottles of what I now know must have been cheap copies of the obviously very popular Aire. Thanks to member Vertigo for giving me a chance to smell this though.
UPDATE: After all that and wierdly, this perfume has grown on me!
Even though I love the top notes and am not so sure of what remains (though can’t tell why from looking at the notes here), something draws me to put this on every day!
I think this is a very good quality perfume.

Air of Loewe, a perfume of spring station. I discovered it in these dates a few years ago, an arrow wound. It is in concrete moments when I estimate really the notes of this perfume that transports me and makes you feel so well. Nevertheless his magic does not work in the same way in my senses other days of the year, is as if only it was blooming in May.
It if, once hooked you cannot allow putting on it day after day and it is lasting and soft ultimately.
rradik – :
I never appreciated this scent. It’s been very popular where i live since its release in the eighties. It was the green fresh perfume of choice but I always found it too sharp. It’s similar to Eau de Lancome but much sharper. It’s very refreshing though, like fresh cut grass, and it lasts quite a while on your skin.

This super fragrance conjures up sunshine and warm evenings under the stars. It is great to use anytime and for any occasion. It puts a smile on your face and a chuckle in your heart.
