Biancolatte ... somehow my first thought was it sounds like a hot drink... white hot chocolate ... but the scent has nothing to do with white chocolate. The fragrance theme is vanilla!
When I managed to get a mini sample of the scent, I was smitten. Of course, I had to get a bottle of this wonderful fragrance... Thanks to a dear Parfumo, I was able to do that soon.
I have no idea if I will ever finish the scent or if I will get some decants to share it with other lovely people here, or if I want to get rid of the whole bottle because I might get tired of the scent someday. For now, I enjoy it every now and then ;)
About the scent:
Biancolatte starts fresh-vanilla. I don't directly smell butter, but a salty note. Maybe it was salted butter :) In any case, the salt makes the vanilla a bit fresher. It sounds crazy, and many who might not know the scent wonder how can vanilla smell fresh? It can!!! I can't explain it, but that's just how I perceive it. Maybe fresh is also the wrong expression.
Fluffy-airy? Yes, that could also describe it.
There isn't much development to the vanilla. Later, I perceive a fine spicy note that keeps Biancolatte from being one-dimensional. Caramel blends so wonderfully into the fragrance. It simply smells dreamy and delicious. Fluffy-airy-sweet!
The longevity is enormous ... Sprayed in the afternoon, you can still smell Biancolatte the next morning.
The bottle is heavy and quite bulky.
I really like Biancolatte, and there are moments when I just crave it. Therefore, I wouldn't say it's purely an autumn-winter scent. You can also wear it well on rainy days. Biancolatte is also a perfect couch scent ;)
Conclusion:
Biancolatte is not the most beautiful vanilla scent for me (I already found that in Vanilla by Réminiscence) ;) ... but it is a wonderful scent to feel good ... to daydream ... the list could go on endlessly.
For those who don't know it yet. Definitely test it ... Dream Gourmand!
You've described it very well; I don't find it that extremely vanilla at all, and it's not my vanilla dream either :) But like I said, I really like the saltiness in it...
That sounds truly fantastic, and you've added "Biancolatte" directly to my wishlist. If you haven't tried it yet: Give the vanilla from "Eau des Missions" a shot sometime - you'll be amazed!
