    What do reviewers say about Pure Turquoise and 212?

    Most aquatics play it safe. This one doesn't, the rum and birch smoke give it an unexpected warmth that either pulls you in or catches you off guard. It's the cool one worth warming up to.Pure Turquoise
    White florals done the way urban optimism tastes, lush gardenia and jasmine without the sweetness. The 1997 formula somehow still feels contemporary. That's the paradox worth knowing before you buy.212
