Talcum

Talcum is a soft, white mineral composed of magnesium, silicon, and oxygen. It is extracted from talc deposits and prized for its silky, powdery texture. Talcum has been used for centuries in personal care products due to its absorbent and skin-soothing properties.

Fragrances featuring talcum tend to have a clean, fresh, and comforting scent. The powdery, soft texture of talcum can evoke a sense of purity, innocence, and nostalgia. Talcum-based fragrances are often suitable for daily wear, as they have a subtle, unobtrusive presence that can be worn in both casual and formal settings.

Talcum is commonly used as a fixative and bulking agent in perfumes and powders. It helps to absorb excess oils and moisture, while also softening and smoothing the overall fragrance. Talcum is often found in base notes, adding a soft, powdery finish to fragrances.
