Helan Fior di Talco is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Given its clean, soft, and intimate nature, Fior di Talco is perfect for casual wear, especially when you want to feel fresh and comforting. It's a good choice for the office due to its gentle projection, but its lack of projection makes it less suitable for formal events or a date where you might want more presence.

About

Fior di Talco opens with a sharp, invigorating burst of bergamot, grapefruit, and lemon, quickly transitioning to a gentle, powdery heart. Violet leaf and orange blossom add a delicate floral whisper, while vanilla provides a soft sweetness that rounds out the initial citrus punch. The dry down is a clean, musky embrace, underpinned by the subtle warmth of fenugreek and tonka bean, settling into an ethereal, cosmetic-like softness.
