I was looking for a clean, powdery aroma and tried this EDP for the first time. It smells like talcum powder and flowers, especially heliotrope, with none standing out. It’s classic, from another era, and very well-made. On paper, I thought it would suit a mature woman, but I hesitated to try it on my skin. I did, and it has great longevity and sillage. On skin, the powdery side comes through more; it reminds me of the dolls from my childhood.
Tez de Nieve deserves more reviews, and here’s my take: I always wanted to try it until I finally ordered a decant (now I’m hunting for the full bottle). As Annie says, it takes you back to another era; it smells like talcum powder from start to finish, being the most powdery scent I’ve ever tested. 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 powder, baby lotions, sweet flowers, and even cotton candy; everything except cold snow, save for the name. It works year-round, but it shines in the cold. It lasts hours, so use it moderately to avoid overwhelming yourself, as you’ll smell it all day. It’s beautiful, excellent, unique, and a joy to discover.

This summer I was in Florence and dedicated a day to hunting for perfumes. I brought 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 like the one I brought more; 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.
Hi hi, greetings from Venezuela, could you tell me where to get these perfumes????? Thanks.
What can you say about this olfactory jewel? It lasts hours, days, and keeps smelling on clothes! Yes! Only for lovers of powdery perfumes, as for me, it is the quintessential ‘talc’ perfume. It’s super pleasant to wear 🙂
Drakecito: I totally agree. They’re not what they used to be. I have some from ’89 here, and if I compare them to the current ones, the difference is astronomical. Those synthetic notes that almost all of them carry (with maybe a few exceptions) affect the longevity. No more animal-derived fixatives: there are many of us, and if we keep going like this, we’ll destroy 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 too: more water. They say 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 still quality differences: if I compare Teint de Neige (which I own and smells more and more like plastic to me) 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 meet 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 tried to create with scented baby powder went wrong. Well, I’ll keep giving Teint de Neige a chance: maybe in a month I’ll fall in love with it. That’s what being a perfume freak 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 great; it’s distinct and memorable. Truly, wearing it is wearing the abstract scent of classic scented baby powder from a lost era, with sweet and subtle flowers that exude melancholy. It has that rosy 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 own 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 mist and maybe it’s too soon to judge, I don’t think it’s worth all the hype. That ‘abstract’ finish of the powder is a misstep; it has an overly artificial dry-down, and nothing lowers quality more than a synthetic note. Plus, I don’t understand this obsession with recreating the Belle Époque over and over again when it already has its perfumers and traditions, and in the 21st century, it’s tiresome and unsurprising.
@Garnache, your point 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 if we know that style through references, we can’t smell it today because simply it’s not there, and maybe that’s what they’re trying to recreate. Regarding 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 carry something synthetic due to health regulations, allergens, and IFRA, so we hit that wall, 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.
Well, I had heard and read wonderful reviews about this perfume. I got obsessed, joined the waitlist, and bought it. Hooray for me, because it arrived, I sprayed it, and I hated it. Does anyone like smelling like talcum powder? Seriously. That’s what it smells like, though I admit that over time it adheres to the skin and smells like those creams that left a trail as elegant ladies passed by, to high-end perfumery, to moisturizer, and to clean, 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 just thrown yourself onto a cloud with a down pillow. The fragrance is quite linear, with good quality, longevity, and sillage. To me, it seems aimed at feminine tastes. Although the composition isn’t spectacular, it’s versatile and very wearable. If you like smelling like fine, expensive scented baby powder, you’ll love this. What surprised me is that the line is complete: cologne in various sizes, powder, gel, soap, lotion, etc. Rating: 6/10.
Hello LaDamedeNoir! I don’t know those powders, but I’m not surprised it’s inspired by them given their age. Reviews emphasize the talc-like, powdery scent, but when I visualize objects with that smell, I think of old makeup bars, Myrurgia-style powders, and dolls just out of the box… powdery scents but with a very slight sweet touch, the kind of talc we all have in our heads from 1950s products. That’s why I don’t associate it with Teint de Neige, which is a RUGGED, DRY, SHARP talc… I’m putting that in caps because associating it too much with old vanity items 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!
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, feels heavy and cloying. A tiny sample feels eternal to me. I’ll gift it if someone wants it.
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 a lot of personality, a powerful sillage, and lasts forever. Some people love it and wear it as their signature scent, but to me, it gives me nausea. It’s a great invention, though very powdery: a raw, unprocessed talc, like the kind from the 19th century. Harsh like the breath of a statue locked away 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 work for me; it’s too powdery for my taste. The longevity is top-notch, but it gets on my nerves, becoming heavy and cloying. This tiny sample feels like it’s going to last forever! I’ll give it away if anyone wants it.
Roses, roses, roses, and roses. Dead roses. If you want to smell like 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, dry flowers. Pure velvet. It has a lot of personality, medium-to-potent sillage, and great longevity. If someone finds it pleasant, it’s a fragrance signature that announces your arrival and departure. I can’t stand it; it gives me nausea, but it’s a great creation. It’s very powdery, a primordial talcum powder, 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’d love to hear if anyone has tried the EDT or EDP. My girlfriend has the EDT, and I don’t smell any burnt plastic anywhere. I do agree about the talc note.
I wonder if this is too feminine to be considered unisex?
The name perfectly defines the scent: it’s white, clean, and neutral. You could apply it with other perfumes, like veils. It’s a solid, infinitely talc-based foundation. Along with ylang-ylang, tonka bean, and jasmine, it’s a classic aroma reminiscent of old soap bars. The architecture is so neutral it’s not sharp, but pleasant and soft like 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 talc-like scent makes you smell clean, fresh, and babyish… it doesn’t get tiring or cloying. For me, it will be a classic, easy to layer with another fragrance for a night out.
In my imagination (and many others’), it is the quintessential modern talcum-powdered perfume. For me, it’s a kind choice that I know will please everyone on formal occasions where I need to look refined and elegant, without being overly opulent or seductive. Yesterday I wore it for 10 hours with a notable sillage at the start and a more moderate trail after a couple of hours. It’s quite linear, musky, and talcum-powdered, which on my skin feels sweet. At first, especially, it comes across as somewhat animalic, projecting me like a beast for the first two hours. The skin longevity is about 10 hours, but it lasts much longer on clothes. 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 formula… It doesn’t matter how it is or when you read this. This fragrance is a work of art. Thank you, Lorenzo Villoresi, for creating one of the most beautiful perfumes of all time.
Teint de Neige is talcum-powdered with a vintage touch; only at the end does a faint, powdery, aldehydic rose emerge. This scent transports you back to childhood, as many 80s toys (dolls and all) had a pleasant, powdery/rose scent with a plastic note. The resemblance to L’Erbolario’s Iris is incredible, though the latter feels a bit more synthetic and sharp. Personally, I love it because, despite being linear, it’s a journey to another time. I wouldn’t wear it as a signature, but on days when I feel extremely feminine and melancholic.
Smells like talcum powder and roses from start to finish, and on my skin, that magic lasts over 10 hours. Perfect for putting it on in the morning and forgetting about reapplying; my olfactory memory links it to babies. As a man, I love it and it comforts me, though it might be a ‘Rara Avis’ since I usually gravitate toward scents like Kouros and Chanel No. 5. If you’re looking for something clean but not soapy, but rather that immaculate purity of an angel, this is for you. Spartacus described it as a vampiric daydream à la ‘Interview with the Vampire,’ and it makes sense: it has that gothic, 18th-century vibe with powdered wigs and a transgressive atmosphere of pristine filth. My memory doesn’t take me to vampires, but rather to Lestat inviting me to a party at Lafayette Cemetery, with Teint de Neige as an appetizer for a bacchanal of vice. It’s much scarier when it evokes a helpless baby. If you’re goth, emo, into anime, or don’t have an idealized sense of virility, give it a try.

As a man, I like it and it comforts me, though I might be rare since I love scents like Kouros and Chanel No. 5. If you like smelling clean—not soapy, but immaculate like an angel—you might enjoy it. Spartacus saw it as gothic, ‘Interview with the Vampire’ style, and he’s right; it has an eighteenth-century vibe with powdered wigs and a transgressive atmosphere of pristine filth. 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 helpless baby. If you’re gothic, emo, into anime, or don’t idealize virility, give it a try.
If you’re obsessed with baby powder, this smells luxurious. It’s vintage and talcum-powdered to the bone, but watch out: by the end of the day, it can get a bit tiring. Rating: 8/10
It’s my signature because powdery perfumes are my favorites, 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 with scented talcum powders. It also reminds me of my grandmother’s powder puff. I’m not saying it doesn’t work today; in fact, I wear it all the time, just careful with the sprays because it has potent sillage and great longevity. Description: very fine talcum powder scent, wrapped in roses, musk, and something sweet, like sugar.

First to centuries like the 19th and early 20th, where I imagine elegant women in long dresses using perfumed talcs. It also reminds me of a powder compact with talc that my grandmother used. With this, I don’t mean it’s not a perfume that can be used today; in fact, I use it continuously, you just have to be careful with the number of sprays because it has a powerful sillage and great longevity. I describe the perfume: it’s 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 mature floral, musky aroma. 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 but dense; so much so that I advise against using it in 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, cozy atmosphere. Iris is the protagonist even if it’s not listed in its accords; midway between Dior’s Iris and Prada’s. Women love it, even if a man wears it. I’m not sure if men like it as much precisely because of its feminine tendency from a unisex perspective. As a scent from the past, it might seem uninnovative, but it’s not true; it simply evokes another time, where lip carmines and baubles completed a lady’s palette of scents. Good perfume with great projection and longevity. Always try before buying.
The dusty echo of winter. Even if it’s not for everyone, I recommend trying it as an olfactory experience. In the coldest winters, when the air becomes biting and skin becomes 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 idealized talcum powder, like the subtle veil of freshly fallen snow. When skin threatens to devour perfumes, Teint de Neige unfolds with discreet generosity, enveloping without invading. Its warm sillage is like that hug that makes you close your eyes, leaving an olfactory memory that lingers in the air. Just note that in summer, it’s better to save it for another season. Differences between EDP and EDT: the EDP is a persistent caress with rougher, dustier nuances, like old talc. The EDT, my favorite, approaches the fine sweetness of soft powders, a softness that caresses the skin with grace. Even as an EDT, its performance exceeds expectations, as durable as a well-kept memory. The differences are barely 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’s chameleon-like: sometimes opaque, creamy, fresh, almost buttery; sometimes almond-like, like marzipan. Sometimes there’s a bit of heaviness, other times it recedes and makes you seek it out. The scent begins with strong, powdery, very warm, soft, and creamy notes. There’s a marzipan and almond note that smells great, quite sweet. It probably comes 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 bit darker. In the dry down, the musk and tonka bean become more prominent than the floral part. It’s a relaxing scent that lets you step back from the world and live the time it stays on your skin with calm and daydreaming. The noise of the street fades to make way for incredible peace. Good longevity and leans more feminine in my opinion, just like L’Erbolario’s L’Iris, which reminds me of it at some point.
It is THE quintessential powdery perfume. I’ve heard a sample of this masterpiece and haven’t ruled out buying it, but I’m saving it for autumn/winter. The longevity and sillage are incredible. Since I’ve been loving powdery scents lately, this has taken the number one spot on my list.
I’m a fanatic for powdery fragrances; anything that smells like talc, makeup, lotion, or a baby doll catches my attention. Teint de Neige starts with an explosion of aldehydes and sugar, but if you wait ten minutes, the magic happens: you’re little again, your mother has bathed you in baby soap, applied lotion and talcum powder, and tucked you into bed with your favorite doll. You drift off to sleep 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’d say it has iris and violet; it’s like the scent of vintage makeup. I was given a sample at a perfumery and they nailed my taste perfectly. I’ll buy it when I can. Recommended for cold weather. Great longevity and projection. You can tell it’s high quality.
The EDT on my skin smells like pure basic talc. I don’t notice any prominent floral notes like in old-school talcs that highlighted rose or violet; they are there, just not defined. I’ve had it for a month, and it lasts quite well. I use it to layer with other perfumes to give them more life. I don’t associate it with clean or fresh scents; it’s more cozy, fluffy, and tender. I think it develops differently depending on the person’s body chemistry. For now, it feels a bit flat, but I hope more nuances emerge over time like they sometimes do.
What a lovely fragrance. Smells like a newly bought doll when I was a child. Powdery… so subtle and exquisite.
