M·A·C Cosmetics Turquatic is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2005. Turquatic opens with Lemon and Rainwater, settles into a heart of Orris and Lotus, and dries down to a base of Cedar and Anemone. M·A·C Cosmetics's Turquatic carries a Favourite verdict, a aquatic-led wear.

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.

About

Imagine diving into cool, crisp waters infused with bright Amalfi lemon and delicate lotus petals. Turquatic layers these fresh aquatic facets over a subtle cedar base, with a hint of powdery orris root adding a clean, slightly soft finish. It's an airy, mineral-kissed breeze, balanced between zesty and serene.
