Bianco Oro

I sprayed this right before going to bed and I absolutely adore it. I’ll admit that 10 seconds after spraying it smelled strange, but that transformed quickly. The first few seconds were nice and after a few minutes it turned quite lovely and comforting. Nearly an hour later and I feel calm and relaxed. Maybe that’s the powdery note (doesn’t smell like baby wipes to me). As another reviewer stated, smelling directly on the skin isn’t as beautiful as the projection several inches from your face. I think I could wear this every night!! Definitely getting a full bottle so I can wallow in this scent. For reference, I typically don’t gravitate to mainstream fragrances and enjoy scents that are a little out of the norm and unexpected. Edit: Two months later and I still wear this post shower before bed. I’ve never worn perfume to bed before because it is usually too much scent for bedtime for me, but this is so soft and beautiful. It truly lifts my mood and is calming at the same time. I find it powdery and a little peppery. Definitely unisex...I’m female and don’t like overly girly scents.

My absolute favorite from this house so far!! This perfume is so intriguing, every time i smell it i need to check the notes again because i forget what's in it. It's so weird but good weird, and yummy weird. To me, it's spicy and sweet, almost honey like? I get strong spices/pepper, the tiniest bit of honey, a teeny bit of caramel, sweet creamy woods. All enveloped in this vaguely herbal or aromatic haze. I understand that vanillas and lactonic perfumes are trending at the time of writing this and i love that Bianco Latte went viral because i want this house to be successful but i feel like Bianco Oro is underrated and slept on.

This gotta be one of my favourite perfumes of all time. To me it's not a peppery rose at all. I can't really pick up on the rose much. It starts out very peppery right away when you spray it (it's close to making me sneeze if I smell it up close before it gets the chance to dry), but it doesn't take long until it develops into this heavenly, soft and comforting pepper cream. It's incredibly creamy on me, bordering lactonic. Most of Giardini di Toscana's perfumes are beasts on me, but this one is more soft and fluffy with its creaminess, so I feel like this is the perfect every-day perfume.

I love this. It’s peppery (you should really like pepper if you want to try this) and woody with a certain dark and mysterious vibe surrounding a rose and patchouli combo. It's warm and comforting but I wouldn't say it can't be worn on a summer evening. I don’t have another fragrance that relaxes me more. To me, this is also perfectly unisex and pretty affordable. I haven't smelled anything else like it and have been pleasantly surprised in layering it with other fragrances, e.g. some heady florals. Fast becoming a signature scent.

Tonight my intention was to wear Bianco latte but I accidentally chose Bianco Oro from my sample collection and sprayed it first without looking . Once I realized I sprayed the wrong one I decided to layer it with bl just to give it a try. I am quite surprised and am quite impressed. It is a very beautiful fresh spice rose inspired caramel latte with a touch of powdery musk that in my opinion has created a very unique fresh gourmand fragrance for the summer!

This fragrance is so unique, spicy but also warm and comforting! I’d love to wear it daytime and nighttime or even for a cozy evening at home. Because this scent is so unique and special (nothing commercial at all!) I can understand this is not for everyone. I’d prefer to smell it from a distance, when I put my nose on my skin it’s too harsh and peppery but from a distance (so how people smells you) it’s just perfect 👌🏼

This is so gorgeous, whenever my boyfriend wears this I can’t stop smelling him. It smells like a clean, rich man. This is so fresh and woody, almost like pencil shavings but in the best way possible. I think this is an all year round smell, it’s peppery so you can’t go wrong and it’s never cloying or intoxicating but still has beast mode performance.

This is actually LOVELY! Start off peppery but within minutes transforms into a sweet, deep and comforting scent which is quite addicting. I couldnt stop sniffing myself! Amazing longevity and projection and for a fair price point. Can be unisex also. After 20 mins I kind of get that Bianco Latte DNA.

At first spray this scent is peppery but soon transforms into a wonderful smokey scent!!!! As it drys down it becomes a more powdery smoke with a hint of rose. Absolutely love how this perfume smiles and the scent projects well. I have been testing the sample kit and so far this is my top pick.

Sweet, smoked wood. Dry smell.

Starts off very peppery then moves into a nice warm woodiness still with a little sharpness but almost comforting in its sweetness and then I do definitely get the baby oil people are talking about as in becomes more floral. To me its a the late evening of what was a blisteringly hot summer day in vibes, like a memory of warmth and temperate air by the coast, soft flowing dresses and sitting on a balcony somewhere in southern France. I can see why people say winter and autumn for this because of the warmth it has that you would want to bring to those seasons and if I think autumn while smelling it I can almost get maple syrup (though that might be a little insane). Its definitely not one to be worn in the day in the summer. I would say is on the more feminine end of unisex, I find it a lot easier to picture on a woman but i think some men could pull it off would need a matching vibe though. Honestly, the full size isn't as much as I thought it was going to be (in the UK at least) and it might join my collection at some point. Its grown on me quite quickly over the short time I've had my decant. Edit: Too lasting. Can still smell it on everything its touched like i just sprayed it. If you like that fantastic, if you get headaches or get overwhelmed by too much potency like me then it will not be for you

This is a creamy version of the woody/patchouli rose fragrance combo. It is very rounded and creamy to me. Nothing sharp, very likeable in comparison to others with similar rose breakdown. I am finding I really love and appreciate Giardini di Toscana's perfume DNA - they very much remind me of LUSH... There are some spices present, but not too much and they come off as rounded & creamy too. Something is slightly sweetened here as well - just slightly - and it is also very comforting. I am enjoying this sample but not sure it is a need for me and my collection. But I am pleasantly surprised. So far, I own Bianco Latte & Bora Bora from the house and now have their discovery set to see what else I'd like to get. So far I really love the way these smell, they have a quality I enjoy, that reminds me of raw oil materials used to make perfumess. Unadulterated materials and it is unique and pleasant. Hard to explain. But if you know LUSH perfumery - these are like if LUSH fragrances were not sharp at all (many are and I still enjoy them*).

This felt like an old-fashioned fragrance, even though I couldn’t immediately place what it was trying to evoke. Somehow, it carried me straight back to my childhood. Black pepper is very dominant here, sharp and insistent, joined by an unusual note that reminds me of freshly painted walls and varnished furniture that hasn’t quite dried yet. It’s a distinctly chemical impression; strange, even unsettling; yet oddly compelling. Despite (or perhaps because of) that synthetic edge, I found myself enjoying it. There’s something deeply nostalgic about it, a reminder of another time and place. As it settles, the fragrance turns incensy, grounding the sharper elements and giving it a more contemplative finish. Tag(s): black pepper, chemical, varnish, nostalgic, incensy drydown, sharp opening

The notes of the fragrance is not what my nose is picking up at all and I’m not mad about it. For some reason all I can smell is raw pancake batter 😅. It’s smells powdery with the softest nuances of vanilla. In the beginning I get the pepper but it mellows down really quickly to a powdery slightly milky understone. I know what I’ve tested was Bianco Oro because I’ve tested it a couple times at the shop so I know I’m not crazy 😂 but something about it reminds me of raw cake or pancake batter. It’s quite addicting but I find the longevity and sillage are not to my personal liking. In the dry down of Bianco Oro I get the same scent profile as Initio’s Absolute Aphrodisiac - it’s vanilla with something about it being animalic. Definitely test before blind buying!

Testing from the sample kit: opening is very peppery and quite similar to a lot of men's cologne that have a citrus blend. The masculine peppery opening fades into more of a hint of spice as the patchouli and rose take over. This stage of the fragrance turns quite soft actually, almost creamy! The bergamont is still very much present. I do detect ambery and woody undertones. For me this is too masculine leaning for my personal liking but I think I would love to smell this on my man😍 it's sexy actually. I'll have to make him test this on the skin and have a better sniff later!

This starts with such a pungent sour bergamot and pepper combo it really makes me giggle to think of all the Bianco Latte lovers sniffing and recoiling and immediately hitting the “dislike” button. This combo actually kind of reminds me of saffron, a note I find challenging, so I at first also was a little put off by the aptly named Bianco Oro. But as it dries down on skin it begins to take on a warm golden and also fuzzy feel that is very appealing, and perfect for cold weather. And the creamy sandalwood/patchouli dry down is definitely a crowd pleaser and lasts for hours.

Curious to test this brand, I chose Bianco Oro. At the opening a strong note of pepper, with an opulent and bitter base (given by the bergamot), then very slowly a shy and sweet rose, dark, emerges which always remains accompanied and I would say held back by the pepper, after a few Over time the pungent sensation disappears and the fragrance becomes pleasantly creamy and fresh, lasting and sealing on the wrist for a very long time. It requires time to be balanced, in my opinion. Good to wear during the day, perhaps more so in cold seasons .

Smooth patchouli and rose, powdery and slightly vintage overall but still soft and feminine. A really nice composition, I may end up getting a full bottle. Layers well with vanilla lotion. Longevity is very good, 7+ hours, sillage is on the low end of moderate. Good special occasion scent. 8/10. Not blind buy safe. Purchased from: Parfums De France

Sweet pepper bomb with hints of velvety rose and patchouli, gets muskier as it dries down but the peppery aspect lingers. Cool/cold weather, sprayed the crook of my elbow with my sample and it's projecting very loudly. Definitely sample before purchasing, especially if you're expecting a musky rose take on Bianco Latte.

Am i the only one who pick up this Xylene smell? This reminds me of those black markers that smells so addictive and pleasant.. but more powdery and sweet in a way. Like it, but dont want to be walking around smelling like this. Appreciate the scent for what it is, even tho its not my cup of tea.
