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.
