Here it is confirmed once again: Everything I don't particularly like is what I smell the most:
At the start, gentle powdery and lemon notes waft past my nose ... along with a light spiciness. Yes, and then, yes, and then something develops that I really don't like: These coniferous woods, mentioned last in the fragrance pyramid and yet written quite small, become prominent and larger, taking over the entire scent space and ... and: I don't like them!!! I've never liked them in fragrances; they remind me of turpentine, of bubble bath, and here of a mix of both. And from the moment the lemon mixes in, it turns into Klostein. My arm grows longer and longer.
This whole process lasts about an hour until - so to speak from behind - a powder cloud rolls in and drives the Klostein away.
From here on, it gets nice: very powdery, floral with a very slight hint of spice. The fragrance isn't really sweet up to this point; the honey only waves from afar. - Sweetness really shows up late for me. Just before TD says goodbye, vanilla and honey make their appearance, but I take it as a final farewell.
So, what now? I am brave and spray TD on myself again the next morning. And I am not just brave; I am also lucky: The result of the long backstory is, in short: I have a new desired fragrance. The coniferous woods (listed as Smoothwood on the homepage) have sent the Klostein away and give this very powdery-floral scent a delicate spiciness. And what initially wanted to chase me away now makes the fragrance precious to me, because TD is not just a powdery-floral scent cloud, but gains a gentle yet stable foundation from the coniferous woods.
In short: Talco Delicato is very powdery-floral with delicate spiciness and a sweet-creamy finish. The longevity is good, and the sillage ranges from low to medium.
Addendum 04/21:
Regarding the sillage, I must correct myself. I have the impression that the more often I wear TD, the more pronounced it becomes. By now, I am satisfied with 1 spray and feel well-scented.
Haha, das ist er wohl, Deine Terpentinerfahrung und meine Stinktier-Indolik...
Habe hier in den letzten Tagen weniger als sonst auf Parfumo gelesen. Genau, das was man nicht mag, riecht man schon in kleinsten Mengen.
Solche Erfahrungen habe auch schon öfter gemacht. Gerade wenn man von vorne herein große Erwartungen hatte. Oder auch in der Erinnerung, selbst in Notizen, einem im Kopf ein schöner Duft vorschwebt. Da hilft nur: etwas warten und nochmal testen.
Ach ja, die ungeliebten Noten, die am deutlichsten und am längsten zu bemerken sind ;-) Aber schön, daß hier aus Pfui noch Hui geworden ist. Der Duft klingt nicht schlecht.
