Sentence 1: A gentle snow fell on the quiet streets. The scenery was wonderful.

Sentence 2: A gentle snow fell on the quiet streets until sunset.

Sentence 3: A gentle snow fell on the quiet streets, and we agreed it was wonderful.

Marc-Olivier, your first answer adds a complete sentence, not a phrase.
Your second sentence adds a prepositional phrase, not a dependent clause.
Your third sentence, however, is correct.
