The Sum of Its Parts

Quin - Italian Meringa's notes are listed as cream and sugar, and the scent is indeed, creamy and sweet. It's not as rich as most lactonic scents and there is no vanilla or other "flavoring" to enhance the sweetness of the sugar. It reminds me of homemade whipped cream that is only lightly sweetened. I appreciate that it isn't overly gourmand, but I can barely smell it on my skin. It has some good layering potential but isn't very effective as a standalone scent (at least on me).

Sweet, light, simple

While I like Quin Italian Meringa quite a bit, it doesn’t actually have a whole lot to it. It’s not going to tax your brain or challenge you. And sometimes that’s fine! It’s sweet but not sugary, creamy but not in a heavy way– it’s frothy and frilly, not stiff frosting. Vanilla beans steeped in cream whipped to airy peaks. And that’s it. And I do know that, of course, meringue uses egg whites, not cream, but I have never noticed an egg white that smelled like anything in particular, so I am not trying to be too literal here. This is light and sweet and simple, and I like that it doesn’t add any unnecessary notes, like chocolate or fruit or marzipan; it’s not trying to be some impossible confection in the final round of a televised baking competition. It’s nice. And that’s plenty good enough sometimes. Good enough to spend $175 on it? Ah. For me, personally? If I’m spending over $100 on a fragrance, I want a scent that is going to give me something to think about, and I don’t find that to be the case here.

Meringue---sugary, whipped cream done well

Hilde Soliani Quin – Italian Meringa is a 2020 release from the house of many gourmands by the queen of gourmands herself. This scent very literally smells of the meringue part of, say, a lemon meringue pie; in other words, sugary, whipped vanilla cream, and in that respect, it’s quite delicious, most closely reminiscent to the beloved Sweet Home of the same house, which smells of sugared chestnuts, another gourmand favorite of mine. Italian Meringa is a little cleaner, that is, simpler than Sweet Home in that rather than a hint of nuttiness, there is on the sugar with cream, and it very effectively balanced the sweetness with an aspect of lightness, all while performing decently well. It also balances the sugariness and creaminess, a hallmark of good icing/frosting, still necessary with meringue with a lighter overall target in mind.

As with most of the brand, Quin - Italian Meringa is sold by Luckyscent in the US at $165 for 100ml, a reasonable price for niche creation. It’s not among the most unique in the line but is quite lovely and one I’d recommend trying.
