Turkish Delight

Turkish Delight is an Extrait de Parfum with coffee, elemi, ginger and styrax in the opening, followed by cinnamon leaf, tobacco and geranium. The base is built around loukhoum, benzoin, labdanum and vanilla. Coffee, tobacco, spice and confectionery sweetness shape its character; the listed notes do not include rose, although two wearers describe a prominent rosy impression. Rose is a wearer perception rather than a listed note. A few English-language wearer comments are mixed. One wearer dislikes the Turkish Delight character, another finds it too sweet and notices perfumey florals, while a third describes rose, coffee, geranium and resinous tobacco as it develops. The perfume may suit people who enjoy sweet, warm-spicy and rosy gourmand scents, but the small group of comments does not establish a broad consensus. Twenty rating votes give an average score of 3.40. Appreciation splits between ten like or love responses, five neutral responses and five dislikes. Nine longevity responses are mostly moderate or long lasting; eleven sillage responses are mostly moderate, with three strong and one intimate. Fall leads the season selections, followed by winter. All six time-of-day selections are for night. These are limited signals, not guaranteed performance. It is available in 2 ml, 30 ml, 50 ml and 100 ml bottles. The 50 ml size is £85, within the Premium price band.
