Scent Bar Staff Video Review for Buontalenti

Video Transcript

Buontalenti is one of my favorite gourmands that we carry and it's because it's really light and milky and it just kind of melts into your skin. It smells like it's a part of you and it's kind of natural but it still kind of has that sweet milky creaminess that I love so much about gourmands.

From reading the notes you might think that this would be a really rich and kind of dense gourmand. They list notes of toffee and cookies and vanilla cream but I actually love that this is just so light. It's perfect in the summertime honestly because it has kind of a tropical feel from that banana note. And it's just never too heavy.

I think if you're a gourmand lover but you're looking for something that you can wear, you know, any day and that never is overwhelming, this would be amazing to check out. And I also think if you haven't really dipped your toes into gourmands and they seem kind of overwhelming to you, this would be a great starting point.

Yeah, Buontalenti, check it out.

Smells like fruit that’s going bad. Not all the way rotten, but getting there. VERY unpleasant on my skin. Failed blind buy for me.

Man oh man. I came across this perfume as a sample when I purchased another perfume on here and OMG. I lucked out!!!!! If I had just read the notes I probably wouldn’t have bought it, but the SMELLLLLLL. I haven’t shown anyone this fragrance that did not immediately purchase one for themselves. The ONLY issue I have with it is the longevity. It doesn’t last very long but the time that it does, chefs kiss.

This is a scent I mix with others fragrance. It’s very light, not too sweet. I usual mix this with any vanilla or other gourmands and it works very well.

Not what I was expecting and not in a good way. This one is a sample first for sure. The banana throws this one off.

Oh no...It does not smell good to me. Smells like a mix of fruit and milk that spoiled. The drydown smells like my grandma house. I really want this perfume to be good because it has all the yummy notes.

At first, I thought this was unremarkable, but I think further wearing has it growing on me. It still isn’t EDP quality in my opinion because it’s very faint. The fruity blast in the opening is so pleasant, but then it morphs into a coconut bomb on my skin. On fabric, the fruit sticks around for a while.

It's nice, but it's a body spray "Bath & Body works" quality. Trust me when I say this. I am a collector with close to 500 perfumes in my collection. The percentage in the Profumo di Firenze perfumes (I have 3 now) is questionable. These are body mists!!! Just rub a thin layer of Vaseline on your skin and then spray any of these perfumes. You will see oil & water separate. $120 body mist!!!

This scent is just so much fun. At first I thought it smelled cheap and fruity, but it develops beautifully and has this lovely creaminess under the fruity notes. Very playful. I like to add Kyse Cocco alla Vaniglia to up the creaminess.

I get initially apricot, vanilla, and toffee and then it morphs into a light banana, coconut ice cream scent. If you like gourmands as I do you, most likely will love this. I wish the apricot would stick around a bit longer but a nice gourmand nonetheless.

I originally bought a 10ml decant of this from a friend. And honestly, I didn't love it at first. But the more I tested it, the more it grew on me. I eventually fell in love with it. At initial spray, I get a candied banana, then the fruits, mostly apricot, supported with vanilla, caramel and musk at the base. It's sweet, but not cloying. It almost had a freshness about it. I just think this is such a great gourmand scent. It's different. And that's one thing that I love about it. And the price is great! I'm also loving the new bottle too.

This scent is fresh, addictive, fruity, but not overly sweet. My husband loved it and was all over me. Will definitely order a full size. I bought this out of the sample Sweet Delights sample pack and was thrilled to find it.
