Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Turquatic Eau de Parfum
MAC Turquatic is a cult classic for a reason, a refreshing blast of aquatic citrus that's divisive only for its often-panned longevity. Some find it a synthetic headache, but for most, it's an uplifting, effortless clean girl aesthetic.

Our Verdict - Dahlia Noir L’ Eau de Toilette
A divisive scent where many users praise its freshness, clean character, and elegant warmth, others found it sharp, soapy, and fleeting. It's truly a 'try before you buy' as skin chemistry plays a huge role here.

Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date
