Soffio di Talco

7.6

Pino Silvestre

Floral · Green · Sweet

Pino Silvestre Soffio di Talco is a unisex scent built on talcum, pine and patchouli, a powdery, creamy softness balanced by a green, woody streak. It reads as one piece: talcum lays down a powdery, creamy base, pine adds a green, woody freshness, and patchouli puts a lightly spicy warmth underneath. Floral and sweet touches stay in the background, and a slightly synthetic sheen runs through the overall impression. Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters suggest spring and fall, with winter close behind. It is picked mainly for leisure, daily wear and the office. More voters call it feminine, but masculine and classic votes are substantial too, so it sits between the two. Pino Silvestre Muschi di Bosco has a close profile.
