Yardley London Gold Perfumed Talc, 250 Gram

Pure talc & a pleasant scent.I use a bit along with cornstarch types- one for friction, the other for moisture.

Smells good

The product itself is in an attractive container, and smells wonderful. However, be aware that if you are going to use it for a gift, mine was not packaged properly. The can was bent, and product was all over the inside of the plain plastic shipping bag.

Bought this as well as the Gentleman and Elegance scents; I'd say Gold is my least favorite of the Yardley powders I bought. The aroma is citrus-heavy and reminds me of dish soap or laundry detergent. It isn't unpleasant, just not my thing. That being said, the talc is smooth and I'm happy to use it as a deodorizer for shoes and whatnot, so no money wasted. I think I'll stick with the muskier Gentleman and Elegance scents in the future.

Used thos for years, and it's an A+.

Pros - the scent is top notch and very appealing. Keeps chafing to a minimum. Only con I have so far is real talc is banned in the U.S., but I used real talc baby powder as a kid late 70’s-90’s, so I guess it can’t be too bad.

I bought this one based on my previous usage of Yardley Sandalwood powder. Unfortunately they changed the fragrance formula with the Sandalwood, which now smells awful, so I decided to try this version. This product is real talc and works very well for body powder usage. The powder is high quality and works for normal uses, but I have found the perfume in this formula, while pleasant in very small amounts, will induce a massive headache with me during normal usage.I normally shake a small amount for each use, but the perfume is very strong and creates an enormous sillage cloud around you. I had to go and change my clothes the last time I shook a little too much, because sitting at work created such a strong smell that my coworkers noticed and complained about it. Not subtle at all for a body powder.I will not repurchase this product, and will look for another brand that doesn't have such a strong perfume, too bad because Yardley does produce a very high quality product.

STAYING POWER.
