MAC's Turquatic fragrance is back! After discontinuing their entire fragrance line-up this past winter, MAC has decided to re-release Turquatic permanently, available at MAC Stores only. The scent itself is exactly the same as the old Turquatic, but they now come in lovely new bottles featuring a gradient from yellow-chartreuse to green-teal. They now also come in 20ml and 50ml sizes, as well as a rollerball version. I decided to get the 20ml bottle, which is the one pictured here, but the 50ml size has a slightly different design (which I actually find a bit prettier). The 20ml size of Turquatic retails for $33.
Turquatic is inspired by the sea, with notes of anemone, lotus, orris, and Corsican blue cedar. It's a very fresh and crisp scent, reminiscent of seasides or oceans. There's a wateriness to the scent that keeps it light and non-cloying, but there is an underlying floral muskiness that lingers on the skin after a few hours of wear. That having been said, Turquatic lasts about three or four hours on me before fading completely. Turquatic was the only fragrance that I ever liked from MAC, so I'm glad they chose this one to re-introduce again, and permanently! For those who like scents like Estée Lauder's Pure White Linen Light Breeze or Dolce & Gabbana's Light Blue, Turquatic may appeal to you.
I'm not even sure if the perfume line is available here in Manila! I'll check this out for sure!

ReplyDeleteTurquatic was the only MAC fragrance I ever owned and liked as well! I wanted to like their other scents, but they were just too strong. I still have Turquatic in the old packaging and love it as a summer fragrance.
