Unsnobby elegance
"Turbulences" is one of the perfumes from the 1980's which I purchased several times as "extrait", because it was not too expensive for a young student and its super-rich formulation had immense staying-power. Layers and layers of flowers (carnation, rose, ylang-ylang) are intensified and mixed with real oakmoss, warm chords of nutmeg, caraway and aromatic ambery notes in the base. The impact of this scent is enormous, I wouldn't wear it in the morning, it's better suited for after-dark occasions. "Turbulences" might come on a little too strong today, it's a genuine child of the 80's. What I really love about it, is its "unsnobby elegance". This fragrance is a creature of the concrete jungle, made for town and for people with a sense of urban adventure.
