What does Pure Turquoise smell like?

It opens with violet leaf, blackcurrant blossom, lily of the valley and cactus blossom, giving a cool, green first impression. Orange blossom, aloe vera and rose soften the heart. In the base, Bourbon vanilla, rum, patchouli and amber carry more weight, while the floral, earthy and chypre accents stay behind the fresh character.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters choose it for daytime and leisure wear, with office use close behind. Evening and night out are picked far less. Fulton & Roark Flower District and Beyoncé Shimmering Heat have a close profile.
