I was looking for a clean and powdery aroma and tried this EDP for the first time. It smells of talcum and flowers, especially heliotrope, with none of them standing out. It’s classic, from another era, and very well made. On blotter, I thought it would suit a mature woman, but I hesitated to try it on my skin; however, I did, and it has good longevity and sillage. On skin, the powdery side comes forward more; it reminds me of the scent of the dolls from my childhood.
Tez de Nieve deserves more reviews, and here is my contribution: I always wanted to try it until I ordered a decant (now I’m hunting for the bottle). As Annie says, it takes us to another era; it smells of talcum powder from start to finish, being the most powdery scent I’ve ever tried. At first, it’s dense, a musky blend of anise and almonds, and as it dries down, it’s like a warm cloud that embraces and protects you, a heavenly scent. It’s talcum, powder, baby lotions, sweet flowers, and even cotton candy; everything except cold snow, save for the colour. Although it goes all year round, it stands out better in the cold. It lasts for hours, use it with moderation so you don’t get suffocated, as you’ll feel it all day. It’s beautiful, excellent, unique, and a pleasure to discover.

This summer I was in Florence and I dedicated a day to hunting for perfumes. I took a bottle of Teint de Neige and compared it with the eau de toilette I have. Although the latter has good longevity and sillage, I prefer the one I took; being the same fragrance, it’s more enveloping and I feel it less gourmand. It doesn’t produce as much sillage, but its longevity is much more persistent. So far I hadn’t heard of the L’erbolario Iris perfume that they say is exact, and it has a great resemblance.
Hello hello, greetings from Venezuela, could you tell me where to get these perfumes????? Thanks.
What can one say about this olfactory jewel? It lasts for hours, days, and keeps smelling on the clothes! Yes! Only for lovers of powdery perfumes, as for me it is the quintessential ‘talc’ perfume. It’s super pleasant to wear 🙂
@Garnache, your point has made me reflect. I think Villoresi is trying to revive a style that no longer exists in reality, neither in the result nor in the technique. Even though we know that style through references, we can’t smell it today because simply it’s not there, and perhaps that’s what they’re trying to recreate. Regarding the synthetic notes, I don’t deny you’re right (I haven’t tried Teint de Neige), but I fear it’s impossible to avoid them. Today, 100% of perfumes contain something synthetic due to health regulations, allergens, and IFRA, so we run into that, just as I suppose Villoresi did. Sorry for jumping in, but the comment seemed so interesting I couldn’t stay silent. A big hug to everyone.
Drakecito: I completely agree. They’re not what they used to be. I have some from ’89 here, and if I compare them with the current ones, the difference is abyssal. Those synthetic notes that almost all of them carry (there will be some exceptions) affect the fixative properties. No more animal-origin fixatives: there are too many of us, and if we continue like this, we’ll ruin the planet. I don’t know if you’ve tested Chanel No. 5 now: it’s water. It might be happening to me with No. 19 as well; more water. They say that if I smelled L’Heure Bleue in its original version, I wouldn’t like it, or I’d literally faint. Almost certainly. Anyway, there are qualities: if I compare Teint de Neige (which I own and smells more and more like plastic every time I sniff it) with Guerlain’s Jardins de Bagatelle, there’s no contest. Jardins de Bagatelle is a bomb of white flowers. I bought it in September, and I’m sure they reformulated it to comply with EU regulations, but the effect is much more natural, even leaning indolic: it’s like being in the middle of a garden. That abstraction Villoresi wanted to create with scented talcum powder has gone wrong. Well, I’ll keep giving Teint de Neige a chance: perhaps in a month I’ll be captivated. That’s what being a perfume geek is all about. A hug to everyone.
Hello everyone, I’m new here: I read a translated luxury review saying the perfumer created his best-seller as an abstract portrait of the Belle Époque. It’s a well-constructed perfume, it lasts, and it diffuses brilliantly; it’s distinct and memorable. In truth, wearing it is wearing the abstract scent of classic talcum powders from a lost era, with sweet and subtle flowers that emanate melancholy. It has that pinkish aroma of a sepia-toned era where the rose was queen and perfumes were elegant but outdated compared to the brazen and strong beauty of Hollywood’s ‘Envys’. In its way, it’s a fantasy; but in another, it’s the most precise olfactory concept of its author, one of the most precious monotematic scents you can smell. Why? Because it smells, perfectly, like a memory. In my humble opinion, yes and no. That ‘perfect form’ is exaggeration. I smell it too much ’embellished’ and excessively ‘cosmetic’. It’s outrageously original, based on an equation with no room for improvisation. Natural notes are missing; it reminds me of the smell of brand-new dolls. Although I have it in a nebula and perhaps it’s too soon to judge, I don’t think it’s worth all the fuss. That ‘abstract’ finish of the powders is an absurdity, it has too artificial a dry-down, and nothing lowers quality more than a synthetic note. Furthermore, I don’t understand this obsession with recreating the Belle Époque over and over when it already has its perfumers and traditions, and in the 21st century it’s tiresome and unsurprising.
Well, I had heard and read wonderful reviews of this perfume. I became obsessed, joined the waiting list, and bought it. Hooray for me, because it arrived, I sprayed it, and I hated it. Does anyone like to smell of talcum powder? Seriously. That’s what it smells like, although I recognise that over time it adheres to the skin and smells like those creams that left a trail in the wake of elegant ladies, to high-end perfumery, to moisturiser, and to clean, all together.
Well, I’d read wonderful reviews about this perfume and it obsessed me. I joined the waiting list and bought it. Oh dear, because when it arrived home, I sprayed it and detested it. Does anyone really like smelling like talcum powder? Seriously. That’s exactly what it smells like. I admit that over time it adheres to the skin and smells like those creams that left trails for elegant ladies, like perfumes from the good houses, like moisturiser and cleanliness, all mixed together.
Teint de Neige is probably the most famous and best-selling fragrance from Villoresi. It starts floral, with a sweet touch from heliotrope and rose that smell like soap; that’s where you notice its character: that powdery accord mixed with musks. Everything smells very soft, white, warm, and comforting, as if you’d thrown yourself onto a cloud with a down pillow. The fragrance is fairly linear, of good quality, with excellent longevity and sillage. I feel it’s aimed at feminine tastes. Although the composition isn’t spectacular, it’s striking and very versatile. If you like smelling like fine, expensive scented talcum powder, you’ll adore this. What surprised me is that the line is complete: colognes in various sizes, powders, gel, soap, lotion, etc. Rating: 6/10.
Hello, LaDamedeNoir! I don’t know those powders, but I’m not surprised that, given their age, it’s inspired by them. In the reviews, there’s emphasis on the powdery, dusty scent, but when I visualise objects with that smell, I think of old makeup bars, Myrurgia-style powders, dolls straight out of the box… powdery scents but with a very slight sweet point, the talc we all have in our heads from fifties products. That’s why I don’t associate it with Teint de Neige, which is a RUGGED, DRY, SHARP talc… I put it in caps because associating it too much with old vanity objects can be confusing. This Teint de Neige is a vanity, but from a century ago. It’s a perfume with a lot of personality. By the way, I love your reviews 🙂
Roses, roses, and roses, but dead ones. If you’re looking to smell like the Belle Époque, Teint de Neige is your dead end. It smells like the vampire company from Interview with the Vampire: dried flowers, dusty, and pure velvet. It has plenty of personality, a strong sillage, and lasts a long time. Some people love it and wear it as their signature scent, but it gives me nausea. It’s a brilliant invention, though very powdery: a raw, unprocessed talc, like that from the 19th century. Harsh like the breath of a statue trapped in an attic for two centuries, bitter as bile. Teint de Neige is literally the tongue-lap of a cat.
I tried the sample and it didn’t suit me; it’s too powdery for my taste. The longevity is top-notch, but it gets on my nerves, becoming heavy and cloying. A tiny sample feels like it’s going to last forever! I’ll give it away if anyone wants it.
It would be good if you commented on whether you’ve tried the EDT or the EDP. My girlfriend has the EDT and I don’t smell any burnt plastic whatsoever. I do agree about the talc.
Roses, roses, roses, and roses. Dead roses. If you want to smell of the Belle Époque, buy Teint de Neige. If you want to smell like the vampire company in ‘Interview with the Vampire’, use it. It’s a bomb of dead, dusty, and dry flowers. Pure velvet. It has a lot of personality, medium-to-powerful sillage, and great longevity. If someone finds it pleasant, it’s a fragrance seal that announces your arrival and departure. I can’t stand it; it makes me nauseous, but it’s a great creation. It’s very powdery, a primordial talcum, pure and unprocessed, like from the 19th century. Rough as the breath of a statue locked away for two centuries in an attic, bitter as bile. Directly, it’s the lick of a cat’s tongue.
I tried a sample and didn’t like it; it’s too powdery for my taste. The longevity is very good, but it gets on my nerves, it feels heavy and cloying. A tiny sample is becoming eternal for me. I’ll gift it if someone wants it.
I wonder if this is too feminine to be considered unisex?
The name defines the scent perfectly: it’s white, clean, neutral. You could layer it with other perfumes, like veils. It’s a solid powdery base to infinity. Along with ylang-ylang, tonka bean, and jasmine, it’s a classic scent reminiscent of old soap tablets. The architecture is so neutral it’s not incisive, but pleasant and soft as cotton. Everything I identify with this perfume is white or transparent. It’s a scent that doesn’t age and wraps the wearer in calm. It’s the smell of soap, snow, and clouds.
This perfume is a delight; its baby powder scent makes you smell clean, fresh, like a baby… it doesn’t tire me out or become cloying. For me, it will be a classic, easy to combine with another scent for a night out.
For me, it is the quintessential powdery perfume. It’s a gentle choice for formal occasions when I want something fine and elegant, without being opulent or seductive. I wore it for 10 hours yesterday with notable sillage at the start and more moderate later. It’s linear, musky, and powdery; on my skin, it notes sweet. At first, it seems animalic, projecting like a beast, but that passes within the first two hours. It lasts 10 hours on skin and longer on clothes. Given its profile and longevity, it’s worth the price; it will always have a place in my collection for those formal occasions. Scent 7.5/10, Longevity 10/10, Sillage 8/10, Value for money 7/10, Versatility 6.5/10, Packaging 6.5/10. Would I buy it again? Yes.
In my imagination (and in many others’), it is the quintessential powdery perfume of today. For me, it’s a gentle choice that I know will please everyone on formal occasions where I need to look refined and elegant, without being excessively opulent or seductive. Yesterday I wore it for 10 hours with a notable trail at the start and a more moderate one after a couple of hours. It’s quite linear, musky, and powdery, which on my skin feels sweet. At first, above all, it feels somewhat animalistic, projecting me as a beast during the first two hours. The longevity on skin is about 10 hours, but on clothes it lasts much longer. Given its olfactive profile and performance, it’s worth the price and will always have a place in my collection, perfect for those formal occasions. Scent 7.5/10, Longevity 10/10, Sillage 8/10, Value for money 7/10, Versatility 6.5/10, Packaging 6.5/10. Would I buy it again? Yes.
Edt, EDP, oil, spray, first formula, last… It doesn’t matter how it is or when you read this. This fragrance is a work of art. Thanks to Lorenzo Villoresi for creating one of the most beautiful perfumes of all time.
Teint de Neige is powdery with a vintage touch; only at the end does a slight powdery, aldehydic rose become noticeable. This scent transports you to childhood, as many toys from the 80s (dolls and all) had a pleasant, powdery/rose scent and a plastic feel. The resemblance to Iris by L’Erbolario is incredible, although the latter feels a bit more synthetic and sharp. Personally, I love it because, although it’s linear, it’s a journey to other times. I wouldn’t use it as a signature scent, but on days when I feel extremely feminine and melancholic.
It smells of talcum powder scented with roses from start to finish; on my skin, that finish lasts up to 10 hours. It’s for putting on in the morning and forgetting to reapply, maintaining that scent all day that my memory links to babies. To me, a man, I like it and it comforts me, although I might be a rarity, as I like scents like Kouros and Chanel No. 5. If you like to smell clean, not soapy, but immaculate like an angelic being, you might like it. Spartacus saw it as gothic, ‘Interview with the Vampire’ style, and he’s right; it has an eighteenth-century part, powdered wigs, and a transgressive atmosphere of pristine sordidness. My memory doesn’t evoke vampires, but I could imagine Lestat inviting me to a party at Lafayette Cemetery with this as an aperitif. It’s more terrifying evoking a defenceless baby. If you’re gothic, emo, like anime, or don’t have an idealised virility, give it a try.
If you’re obsessed with baby powder, this smells luxurious. It’s vintage and powdery to the core, but be warned: by the end of the day, it can become a bit tiring. Rating: 8/10
Smells of talc with roses from start to finish, and on my skin, that magic lasts over 10 hours. Ideal for putting it on in the morning and forgetting about reapplication; my olfactory memory links it to babies. As a man, I love it and it comforts me, although it might be a ‘Rara Avis’ since I enjoy scents like Kouros and Chanel No. 5 so much. If you’re looking for something clean, not soapy, but that immaculate purity of an angel, it’s for you. Spartaco described it as a vampiric reverie in the style of ‘Interview with the Vampire’ and it makes perfect sense: it has that gothic, eighteenth-century side with powdered wigs and a transgressive atmosphere of spotless sordidness. My memory doesn’t take me to vampires, but to Lestat inviting me to a party at Lafayette Cemetery, with Teint de Neige as an aperitif for a bacchanal of vice. It’s much scarier when it evokes a defenceless baby. If you’re gothic, emo, love anime, or don’t have an idealised virility, give it a try.
It’s my signature because powdery perfumes are my favourites and this is the one that best represents them; it makes me travel through time. First to centuries like the 19th and early 20th, imagining elegant women in long dresses and scented talcum powders. It also reminds me of my grandmother’s powdery powder puff. I’m not saying it doesn’t serve today; in fact, I use it always, just careful with the sprays because it has powerful sillage and great longevity. Description: very fine talcum scent, wrapped in roses, musk, and something sweet, like sugar.
It is my signature perfume because powdery perfumes are my favourites and for me this is the one that best represents them, besides it makes me travel through time. First to centuries like the 19th and early 20th, where I imagine elegant women in their long dresses using perfumed talcs. It also reminds me of a powder compact with talc that my grandmother used. With this I do not mean it is not a perfume that can be used nowadays; in fact, I use it continuously, you just have to be careful with the number of sprays because it has a powerful trail and great longevity. I describe the perfume: it is a very fine talc scent, wrapped in roses, musk, and I also feel something sweet, like sugar.
Exquisitely perfumed talc. You can feel its density; I adore its scent of mature, musky flowers. Romantic and impure. It always seduces me!
Teint de Neige. A perfume from another era. Feminine. Powdery. An evocative aroma of Art Deco, modernism, or the Belle Époque. Fine yet dense; so much so that I advise against it for summer unless you limit sprays to two. An aroma that can recall the room of a young woman from the early 20th century, where a mix of artificial scents like makeup and a plastic doll come together to offer a warm, elegant, cosy atmosphere. Iris is the protagonist even if it is not listed in its accords; midway between Dior’s iris and Prada’s. It is loved by women, even if a man wears it. I do not know if it is liked so much by the male sex precisely because of its tendency towards the feminine from a unisex perspective. As a scent from the past, it may seem uninnovative, but it is not true; it simply evokes another time, where lip carmines and baubles completed a lady’s range of scents. A good perfume with great projection and longevity. Always try before buying.
THE DUSTY ECHO OF WINTER Although it’s not for everyone, I recommend trying it as an experience. In cold winters, when the air bites and skins are capricious, Teint de Neige emerges, a whisper of bygone times. This cult fragrance revolves around a precise concept: it smells perfect as a memory of another era. It evokes the softness of idealised talcum powder, like the veil of freshly fallen snow. When the skin threatens to devour perfumes, Teint de Neige unfolds with discreet generosity, enveloping without invading. Its warm sillage is like an embrace that makes you close your eyes, leaving a persistent olfactory memory. In summer, it’s better to keep it aside. Differences between EDP and EDT: the EDP is a persistent caress with rough and dusty nuances, like old talcum. The EDT, my favourite, approaches the fine sweetness of soft powders, a softness that caresses the skin. Although it’s an EDT, its performance exceeds expectations, durable like a kept memory. The differences are just a sigh, almost identical in essence, two versions of the same olfactory poem.
The dusty echo of winter. Although it may not be for everyone, I recommend trying it as an olfactory experience. In the coldest winters, when the air becomes biting and skin is capricious, a fragrance emerges that is a whisper of bygone times: Teint de Neige. The originality of this cult perfume is that it revolves around a very precise concept; it smells as perfectly as a memory of another era. It evokes the unmistakable softness of idealised talcum powder, like the subtle veil of freshly fallen snow. When the skin threatens to devour perfumes, Teint de Neige unfolds with discreet generosity, enveloping without invading. Its warm trail is like that hug that makes you close your eyes, leaving an olfactory memory that lingers in the air. That said, save it for another season in summer. Differences between EDP and EDT: the EDP is a persistent caress with rougher, dustier nuances, like old talc. The EDT, my favourite, approaches the fine sweetness of soft powders, a softness that caresses the skin with grace. Although it is an EDT, its performance exceeds expectations, as long-lasting as a well-kept memory. The differences are merely a sigh, almost identical in essence, two versions of the same olfactory poem.
A great option if you like perfumes with a distinct powdery touch. Teint de Neige is an aroma that speaks to you and identifies as something special, pleasant, yet deep and enigmatic. On my skin, it is chameleon-like: sometimes opaque, creamy, fresh, almost buttery; sometimes almond-scented like marzipan. Sometimes there is a certain heaviness, sometimes it recedes and makes you seek it out. The scent begins with strong, powdery, very warm, soft, and creamy notes. There is a note of marzipan and almond that smells lovely, quite sweet. It probably stems from heliotrope. I also smell roses and other light flowers that blend well. Basically, the aroma doesn’t change much, except that the sweet notes become a little darker. In the dry-down, the musk and tonka bean are more noticeable than the floral part. It is a relaxing aroma that allows you to take distance from the world, living the time it lasts on your skin with calm and daydreaming. The noise of the street recedes to make way for incredible peace. Good longevity and, in my opinion, more inclined to the feminine side, just like l’Iris by L’Erbolario which reminds of it at some point.
It is the quintessential powdery perfume. I have heard a sample of this masterpiece and do not rule out buying it, but ideally for autumn/winter. The longevity and trail are phenomenal. As someone who lately adores powdery scents, this has taken the number one spot on my list.
I am a fanatic of powdery fragrances; anything that smells of talc, makeup, lotion, or a baby doll captures my attention. Teint de Neige begins with an explosion of aldehydes and sugar, but if you wait ten minutes, the magic happens: you are small, your mother has given you a bath with baby soap, applied lotion and talcum powder, and tucked you into bed with your favourite doll. You fall asleep in a cloud of happiness and well-being. That is Teint de Neige.
Smells like baby powder with flowers. More feminine than unisex, in my opinion. I would say it has iris and violet; it’s like the scent of old makeup. I was given a sample at a perfume shop and they hit the mark with my tastes. I will buy it when I can. Recommended for cold weather. Good longevity and projection. The quality is evident.
What a delightful fragrance. It smells like a newly bought doll from when I was a child. Powdery… so subtle and exquisite.
The EDT on my skin smells of pure basic talc; I don’t notice any prominent floral notes like in old-fashioned talcs that highlighted rose or violet; they are there but not defined. I’ve had it for a month, and it is quite long-lasting. I use it to blend with other perfumes to give them more life. I don’t associate it with a clean or fresh scent; rather, it has something cosy, fluffy, and tender. I think it may develop differently depending on the person’s body chemistry. For now, I find it a little flat, but I hope more nuances emerge over time as sometimes happens.
