Bianca

Lovely-- realistic sugared tea and lemon, and there are roses hanging around but to me, it's primarily a freshie, not really super floral. Even the rose note smells fresh, like it's just been cut. This is my signature for the summer. It's got the sugar going on but it's balanced nicely by the tea and lemon so the result is not cloying or sticky. I find it similar to J.Lo Still... not a dupe but they're in the same family. Bianca is a bit more softly floral than Still, but I must admit Still is a better value, though I love and enjoy using both! Lasting power is pretty good on me; I get whiffs of it throughout the day as I move around. What's interesting to me is how it's fresh, yet a bit old-fashioned. It is airy and cool but doesn't smell much like a 90s/00s perfume. It's underrated in my opinion and worth a sniff if you like cool, green, delicate scents with some romance.

I find this so pleasant and comforting. It seems to be a bit more complex than Stella or Florence which are prominently more fruity. All are easy to wear but I like Bianca's balance of fruit, tea, rose with the musk and sugar rounding it out. I don't catch the lavender though. I think I can now say I have found an easy "go to" which has a handful of notes I enjoy that I can wear day or night year round. I wish it would last longer but I'm happy to have found an inexpensive travel spray at TJM. I think I will try layering it with EA Green Tea, or something with roses, or maybe lavender oil. Edit: After a few more times wearing this I do find the lavender. This is my favorite Tocca to date. Edit 2: Getting more orange on this wearing but still feel like this is nicely balanced. Changing my earlier thought about it being good for all season, I now feel it's better for spring.

I don't notice the tea notes in this perfume, but I have no idea how that is supposed to come through in a fragrance. This is my first tea fragrance and I don't know what to smell for, so it doesn't mean that it's not there, but I don't know how to recognize it. I am not usually a fan of rose, but it works well here and I love the clean perfume. I'd rate this a 9.8/10. I can smell it on myself throughout the day and I smell it on my bed, meaning it might have good longevity. I get excited at the thought of spraying more on myself. This was worth the money.

I loveeee this so much. It's so romantic and feminine and fresh, I get a pretty green opening (though not sharp) and then the citrus comes in and makes it smell like sweet tea, and then finally the floral musk. My only complaint is that it doesn't last super long, but it's better than many of my citruses. It's deep enough with the tea and rose that it's not just fresh and fleeting, it actually stays for a minute. The longer I wear it, the more the tea comes in and the lemon fades into the background, which I love.

This was a love at first sniff perfume for me. I had chosen it as part of my Scent Bird subscription and bought a full bottle after wearing it once. The tea note with the citrus in the opening is delightful and it develops into a beautiful, feminine rosy musk on my skin. Honestly, this doesn't last more than two hours on my skin or clothes even when I overspray which is disappointing, but I love the scent so much it doesn't bother me too much.

If you like Valentino Donna Rosa Verde, you will love this one. They share several notes (citrus, green tea, rose), but this one is a tiny bit brighter and more well-rounded, with a sweeter opening, and a cleaner finish. Don't be fooled by the sugar note; it's not overly sweet, but it's very fresh and bright. This could easily become a signature fragrance as it's wearable year-round. Absolutely lovely fragrance.

This is my go-to perfume. When I'm not sure what to wear, I reach for Bianca. I love that it smells so clean and natural without any nauseating powderiness or artificial candy scent. It's just simple and fresh, and the green tea notes really do a lot for me as a tea-lover. This won't turn any heads, but if you want to smell yourself and just think, "Aaaaah, so refreshing!" then this is the perfume for you.

I do love this perfume, it smells like sipping jasmine green tea in a garden on a cool spring morning. The bright opening notes stay present for surprisingly long before the scent wears away entirely. There’s very little base to this, making it seem ungrounded. Bianca is still pleasant and fresh, but lacks balance. This is a good option if you want something uplifting and inoffensive.

On me this is the sweetest blend of rose and citrus. Refreshing, light, gently alluring. Perfect for a bright sunny spring walk in a lush green park. An hour in - it turned to a close to the skin tea with lemon scent. I prefer something with a bit more oomph...like Florence. But this is a perfectly beautiful daily wear during spring.

I love this fragrance. It smells nearly identical to Tokyo Milk Dark- Everything and Nothing. I smell only the green slightly sweet citrus in the perfume. After awhile, it fades into a sweet musk. Not a rose, but a sugary afterthought. The only downside is that the scent doesn't last past two hours on my skin.

Opens up with a strong citrus tea scent, and finishes off smelling exactly like an expensive laundry detergent. if that's your thing, you'll love this. Overall very clean and fresh smelling.

I got a sample of this and used it up so fast, now I’ve got a full bottle. It’s the perfect tea fragrance, with a fresh spring rain feel to it.

Feminine, classy, happy, uplifting Spring or summer scent; Perfect day time or work scent

I like it but would love it if it would last a long time. Very clean and fresh, lemony.

I really want to own a Tocca fragrance because I adore the cute little round bottles and the hard consonants in the name brand (weird, I know). I decided to try Bianca because I love bergamot, rose, and green tea in my fragrances. It starts off smelling like a very beautiful bouquet of roses. I was hoping the bergamot, mandarin, and lemon would have played a stronger role, but the floral scent is more dominant than the citrus. The citrus is certainly present, but roses are what I mainly smell. I describe this scent as being very pretty, girly, and innocent. After an hour, I can detect the green tea lurking behind the rose, making the rose smell lighter and watered down. After 2-3 hours, the green tea becomes more dominant than the rose, but the rose isn’t faded. If I were to describe this scent through an illustration, I imagine myself having tea in an outside café in the summer. The centerpiece on the table would be a cute glass bowl of water with rose heads floating on top. I love the concept behind this fragrance—tea time in Italy. I think it’s well-executed. Eventually, the rose completely drowns away in the green tea, and then the tea slowly fades. This eau de parfum smells floral and aquatic. I don’t get a strong scent of citrus at all. It lasts for many hours. After 6 hours, I can smell it lingering close to my skin when I put my wrist to my nose. Overall, it’s a nice scent. Nothing special or unique; it’s just a nice scent for daytime. My sister thought it smelled disgusting though; it reminded her of freshener you put in cat litter. I don’t think it does, but it’s definitely a watered down floral perfume. Although I did think of tea time when I put this on, I don’t feel compelled to spend money on this when there are other better perfumes on the market that smell floral and water-based, too. But I do love the adorable dumpling-shaped bottle and patterned image on the cap; it has a vintage feel to it. Maybe I’ll have better luck with the other Tocca fragrances! 3/5

Tocca BIANCA is a curious creation, full of surprises. The opening is really a bright and sassy little citrus, with only a faint touch of jasmine florality. As this begins to fade, BIANCA morphs into a mighty fine light rose fragrance which really defies the opening. It's almost as though there are two entirely distinct perfumes here, with a tea note bridging the gap between the opening and the drydown. I am fond of citrus fragrances, and also subtle rose perfumes, so I'm inclined to like each of the two personalities of BIANCA on its own terms. But I also appreciate the uniqueness of this combination in a single composition, which I have not come across before. I suspect that citrus lovers may not like the rosy drydown, while rose lovers may not like the citrus opening. But since the drydown lasts so much longer than the opening, BIANCA is better suited for those looking for a rose perfume than for a citrus cologne. For the same reason, it seems a mistake to categorize this fragrance as a citrus aromatic, since for most of its reasonably lengthy life BIANCA is a floral perfume. I wouldn't mind having a bottle of this...

this is so different from other perfumes i've had or tested so far. the inside definitely matches the outside! it's old timey in the best way possible. it doesn't smell outdated but rather timelessly elegant. it also doesn't smell synthetic like most fragrances today. it's a very 'clear' scent if that makes sense. i mainly get rose and lemon plus a touch of sugar in the base. i'd say it's a relatively ageless scent. it's refined and classy enough for an older woman to wear, but fresh and sweet enough for someone young to enjoy as well. i heard someone describe it as smelling like the main character in a victorian romance novel and i couldn't agree more! i picture a young upper class woman in a beautiful dress, frolicking through a big garden. it's sunny and everything's in bloom. is she on her way to meet a lover? attend a fancy picnic? who knows! this is the first tocca scent i've tried, but i'll definitely be checking out more from them, because everything about this (can we talk about the box it comes in too!!) is just super impressive.

Bianca reminds me of a couple of perfumes I already have but it is a bit different. I have a weak spot for tea and Bianca is a really good tea scent. Fresh lemon, tea, rose, lavender and a bit of sugar. Simple, clean and classic summer type cologne for a young lady or woman. Perfect for hot weather. I really like Tocca. I just picked up Florence and Stella and I think Gia and Bianca are next on my list. This brand is fun, feminine, nice perfumes that aren't groundbreaking or anything but what I like about this brand is their feminine marketing. The bottles are just darling, and the perfumes are easy to wear and easy to like. Also, I like the fact they sell bath products and home scent products as well. I think this brand is a little underrated and they get a lot of negative reviews that I don't understand. They are affordable, their bottles are simply beautiful, and their perfumes have decent longevity, throw and smell really nice. What's not to like? If you are a tea lover like I am you should check this little gem out.

So far, I am playing it safe (lol) and declaring I LIKE that lovely!Rose - Tea-time in the backyard where the grass has just been mown , anyone? The angel cakes frosted with mandarin-vanilla cream are on Bianca: Snow White one might say... She is boldly bubbly at the begining, but as she gets comfy with you, a tender part of her emerges. Suddenly you find yourself with her in a lush and sweet-smelling rose-garden . A suave ocean breeze seems to waft by for a brief moment. You can almost taste the salt and smell the sand. I figure it might be the mix of green tea and lavender. I find it smells very little musky or perhaps I simply don't detect the note, but that sugary-mandarin sure clings! I think like is turning into Loooove! I find it has that 'Allure' vibe but the longevity on Bianca is amazing on me. I THANK YOU CAKES AND CUDDLES FOR GIFTING ME WITH THIS. YOU ARE AWESOME (AND SOO GENEROUS!)!

I have tried this 3 times at Mecca. I get a stong tea note and it reminds me of Geurlain Teaazurra in the opening. However this is more dense. I can also smell citrus,sugar and powder (must be the musk). This doesnt smell like a 2021 fragrance. It gives me 80s vibes and takes me back to my Crabtree & Evelyn days and smells exactly like Nantucket Briar. A bit old fashioned and potpourri-ish. In saying that I still would like to get the rollerball even just for nostalgia sake. However only can find a 50ml and dont think I will use it enough to justify paying full price. I dont see this as a light fragrance as others say. Even my husband said it was strong. I think its a good early spring fragrance.
