What does Turbulences smell like?

The scent reads as one piece: tuberose, jasmine and magnolia form a white-floral core, softened by May rose. Leathery notes add an animal, leather shadow beneath the creamy sweetness, while the green and fresh accords keep the flowers from turning heavy.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick spring and fall, and evening, night out and leisure wear are almost evenly split. It reads feminine and classic. Louis Vuitton Dancing Blossom and Lancôme 6AM Rose have a close profile.
