Michael Kors Turquoise is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Turquoise opens with Water Lily, Lime, and Cucumber, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Sea Water, Musk, Cedar, and Ambroxan. Michael Kors's Turquoise carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Turquoise is a divisive floral aquatic. Many find it a delightful, unique summer scent that evokes seaside holidays, but others are put off by a sharp, mature jasmine opening and poor performance.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with its fresh and clean profile, make it suitable for office and casual wear. While some find it too sharp, its 'quietly confident' nature is noted by others, making it versatile for daytime, but perhaps lacking the punch for formal or impactful date nights.

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

About

Dive into the refreshing embrace of Turquoise, a fragrance that opens with an immediate aquatic splash of water lily, brightened by zesty lime and a subtle hint of crisp cucumber. The heart unfolds with lush jasmine and delicate orchid, creating a warm, floral core. As it settles, a clean base of sea water, soft musk, and grounding cedar emerges, with a touch of ambroxan adding a modern, airy depth, conjuring images of a floral garden by the ocean.
