What does Talco smell like?

The top holds Damask rose, jasmine absolute, talcum and bergamot, with the talcum and bergamot softening the flowers. In the heart, iris, ylang-ylang and Moroccan rose absolute carry the floral line on. The base of amber, tonka bean, musk and vanilla sweetens it and closes on a creamy warmth, with a spicy touch staying in the background.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and spring, with winter third. It leans towards daily and leisure wear, and also gets votes for evening and office. Half of the character votes call it feminine, with classic and modern votes as well.
