Why???
Parfums de Nicolai is considered an insider tip among perfumistas. Luca Turin calls Patricia Nicolai one of the most gifted noses today.
Even if some of her scents take quite some time to access - some seem a bit crude and unbalanced at first sight - they can turn out to be true treasures when looked at a bit closer - Vanille-Tonka, New York, just to name a few.
But Eau Turquoise? What the h** is THAT?
It is supposed to be an exotic-tropical scent. I reckon Creed or CSP are better at it.
At first sniff I get some fruit and lots of mint or something like that. After a couple of minutes, it totally turns and gets a really disgusting note that is hard to describe. Animalic somehow, maybe not. Like a mixture of used underpants, sweaty feet and some spilt cuba libre. Something makes me think of Cuba by C&S. I found Cuba quite brutal at first. Not bad, but somehow inaccessible, I had to get used to the heavy skank notes.
This one however is bad and stays bad. Makes me sick. The best thing about it is that it doesn't project much.
I simply can't understand how the same person can create a masterpiece like New York or Vanille-Tonka and this tasteless rubbish. It shocks me. Technically bad. Just my two scents.
