Yardley Sandalwood Perfumed Talc, 250 g

Cornstarch based (baby) powders are not ideal as foot powders because athlete's foot and nail fungi can use cornstarch as food. Talc, a mineral, is superior in this regard. However, asbestos sometimes contaminates talc, depending on the source. So, it is important to not breathe in powdered talc. This is true for very fine particles, in general, because they can become trapped in one's lungs. A little care in application will go a long way in this regard. This talc has a pleasant smell that is far from overpowering; in fact I only notice it when applying the powder to my feet; I do not smell it later in the day when I remove my shoes or change to slippers. If this were not the case, I would not use it; I don't wish to be emitting odors, especially cloying ones - and this sandalwood is not cloying at all. The bottom line is I've been using it for years, and have been very pleased at its fragrance, how long a tin lasts, and how effective it is at keeping my toes dry.

Lovely true sandalwood scent. I use this for body powder and dry shampoo. The metal container is charming. I also can't believe how BIG the container was. I'll be buying again and in more scents. Yardley's has been around for so long because it is good.

No lo piensen dos veces y cómprenlo, no se van a arrepentir, huele súper rico🥰

I love the fragrance and feel of it. Must try!

I love the fragrance and love the price!

I was expecting a spicier, more woodsy sandalwood with a hippie-vibe and got grandma's flowers. You know when you're in a confined space like an elevator, subway car or maybe in a church pew and you can't move but the older lady near you is wearing too much perfume, and it is giving you a headache? Yeah, that. I only put a sprinkle on my wrists and the scent was strong and floral, I instantly disliked it. But after a few hours it grew on me. It is a clean, pleasant scent and nothing I'd initially connect specifically with sandalwood, but not offensive. I wouldn't recommend using a lot at first - like crop dusting before headed into the office. Just a little will go a long way until you adjust to the scent, or the scent adjusts on you. It's slightly giving "Evening in Paris" so the nostalgia is kicking in.
