Perfume Review of Bois de Turquie Maitre Parfumeur et Gantier
This charming oriental perfume opens with a tender note of orange blossom, surrounded by juicy and radiant citrus accents of mandarin and bergamot.
After a while, when the bright opening of Bois de Turquie calms dawn, a tantalizing and deep character of this perfume reveals itself.
Jasmine in the heart of Bois de Turquie gives this fragrance its heady sweet scent that is beautifully framed by powdery accents of iris.
Meanwhile, the note of bay laurel makes the sound of this tempting floral duo a little bit spicy and more expressive.
The base of this perfume is represented by an impressive oriental accord featuring sandalwood, myrrh, incense, and patchouli notes.
Sandalwood gives Bois de Turquie its alluring creamy scent accompanied by the earthy depth of patchouli, while the note of myrrh brings the most charming balsamic sound with some sweet and lemon nuances.
