Imperial Leather Original Talcum Powder, 300g

Functions like any good talcum powder and smells manly to boot. The scent is noticeable but pleasantly subtle, unlike that world famous brand which makes you smell like someone just changed your diaper. No more odd glances on the subway!Except that I don't ride the subway. Because Houston doesn't have subways...But you get the point.We do have pedestrian tunnels under downtown. Not sure why. They collect flood waters beautifully, though. A bunch of people built shops down there. Not very bright, those people.We also have a trolley. It doesn't actually go anywhere. Just kind of putters up and down Main Street and hits cars occasionally. The homeless people who live under the freeways ride it back and forth during the winter to stay warm. So it's a community service thing... I guess? Sure was expensive.Once, back in the '80s, we were going to build monorails instead of subways in order to reduce the increasingly ridiculous freeway loads. That idea made far too much sense, however, so it was promptly abandoned in favor of building 20-lane wide freeways -- i.e., homeless shelters. Planes occasionally mistake them for runways and hit cars. I suspect they're just jealous of the trolley. Maybe the planes should pick up some homeless people while sitting on their roof.

Nice scent, cool, calm, not overpowering. If you’re looking for that old style barber shop powder, and doesn’t “smoke” up the entire bathroom, this is for you. No fillers in this powder. Excellent after shower smell. Pair it with your after shave lotion, and you have your own small in house, old time barber shop smell.Great customer service, excellent company and well packaged. Just to go over some of the scents, if you like, are Turkish rose, lavender, cumin and amber. As it says on the bottle, “Timeless Classic”. It truly is and I was more than satisfied at this long lasting Imperial Leather talcum powder. You won’t be disappointed. It is your own barber in a bottle powder. It’s light, but as I said before, doesn’t get everywhere when applying. Where you put it is where it goes, as compared to most other powders that get everywhere when applied. This is a “little luxury everyday”....

Nice, soft talc. Real talc, the kind that gives you all sorts of diseases but also absorbs odor and wetness. Does the job, which is half the battle.Not a fan of the scent. Little too old timer for me. Makes me want to put on a pair of Dockers, pull 'em high, and walk on over to the Bingo parlor and hit on Gertrude. Or travel to London, get in my Jaguar, and drive on down to Buckingham Palace and join the Queen for tea. Except I'm too young for that and definitely not a British Subject. So....not a fan of scent, and neither is my wife nor kids. Like others have said, not a young man's scent. Try it, though, you might like it.

First off, let me empirically state that my mom is not easy to impress when it comes to products. She is a die- hard product loyalist who has stuck with many products for many decades. When Johnson & Johnson announced they were discontinuing their talc- based powder, she naturally freaked out. She hates cornstarch with a passion! She doesn't like Gold Bond products (don't know why, they are my favorite and they work magnificently for me), so the challenge was shooting blindly and hoping to hit. I took a gamble on this powder, and whattya know, SHE ACTUALLY LIKES IT!! Said it works well and doesn't irritate, so that's a good thing. Found a new product, here's to hoping it's not discontinued.

I got this for my pools liner for storage.. It came busted up. It seems like this happens alot. Not sure if its someone opening the container to check out what it is or what, but alittle thrown off by it. This is the first time getting something from Amazon thats came open and sprayed all over the box.. A little ridiculous i paid 9 for a open product. For the record the powder was sent with another item in the box as well that was not damaged at all. So in any case I say it's wierd. But the powder is what it says it is.. And should work wonderfully for my pool...

This is a really nice quality talc - very smooth & very finely milled texture. But for me the scent was way too overpowering, as in it caused an instant headache & I had to wash it off immediately. BUT, I found the perfect solution - I bought 4 pounds of a finely milled unscented talc (manufactured by Imerys, the same company who provided J & J with talc) from ebay & played with the ratio of Imperial Leather to unscented talc until I reached a diluted level of scent I thought was pleasant. Using an accurate commercial scale, I mixed (in a gallon sized ziploc bag) the scented & unscented talcs to find the most desirable ratio which for me turned out to be 1:1. So now I have TWICE as much scented talc at a diluted scent level that is quite pleasant. The newly diluted scent is quite tolerable and does have a light (and pleasant) soap smell... Using my dilution technique I doubled my supply of scented talc and went from a headache level /wash this off immediately scent to a lightly scented talc that I actually like !!! Believe it or not, I'll be buying more of this in the future when this double-sized batch is gone...

As soon as i opened my package i was on love! This power has a strong cologne sent and its lasts quite a while. Very happy i decided to give this a try, will most likely become my regular now. I can't find talc anywhere locally so i bought this one, and "Nivea pure talc" to compare and see what i like better. The Nivea smells more perfume like, similar to traditional baby powder but maybe a little stronger sent. My wife prefers the Nivea for herself, but likes the imperial leather sent on me.
