Tourmaline, a mysterious gemstone said to possess the magical power of a love potion…Tourmaline, a multi-facetted stone available in an infinite array of colors, offers shimmering, vibrant hues, including green and blue. Tourmaline, a rare gem, bearer of myriad emotions!
No other stone than tourmaline – unique, refined and radiant – could have more deeply inspired Philippe Charriol for his new women’s eau de toilette. Philippe Charriol, renowned for his luxurious lines of watches and jewelry, defines “the art of perfume as an art of living differently”.
Tourmaline is an entirely different eau de toilette: an eau de jour full of contrasts designed for radiant, relaxed, fashionable women who convey modern-day elegance with admirable know-how, naturally combining a pair of slim-fit jeans with a dressy sheer blouse and a men’s jacket. Tourmaline, an eau de jour for every day, pleasant under any circumstances, modern and refined, at once so personal and so easy to wear.
THE FRAGRANCE
This green, floral fragrance evokes transparency and light before being turned upside-down by the unexpected and powerful introduction of woody notes providing truly radiant sensuality.
Perfume creator: Guillaume Flavigny - Givaudan
Olfactory family: floral, green, woody
Top notes : A fresh, transparent start that evokes crumpled leaves mixed with morning dew.
Davana, a flower with a sweet, fruity side, softens the sparkly tanginess of the green notes. Cyclamen brings transparency with delicate refinement, while ivy leaf offers its sparkling, crisp green freshness.
Middle notes: Light, light and more light!
Gardenia, a very feminine, opulent flower with its white petals, blends with sundrenched frangipani blossom to illuminate Tourmaline with a unique burst of light. Water hyacinth, an aquatic flower, prolongs the transparent facet of the fragrance into its core.
Base notes:
Wood gives uniqueness to Tourmaline by making its floral structure gradually evolve toward greater sensuality and refinement for ultra-feminine sensations…
Soft and subtly voluptuous rosewood and transparent, almost powdery and highly tenacious musk inundate the composition with exquisite, refined sensuality. Radiant patchouli provides irresistibly seductive depth and mystery.
Transparency, light and sensuality are the three precious and elegant facets of this beautiful eau de jour, Tourmaline.
THE TOURMALINE BOTTLE AND BOX
The green facet of the precious stone was selected for the Tourmaline bottle: a fresh, subtle color that lets light in.
In the same vein, the design of this transparent, satiny Charriol bottle for women harmonizes perfectly with this light and its bursts of color: curved lines for femininity; sober, pure lines for modernity.
The famous raised steel cable motif, the Charriol trademark, is sculpted in the glass, wrapping around the bottle with elegance and transparency. The bottle’s center features the signature of the prestigious brand.
The Tourmaline bottle, topped with a jewel-like cap with metallic celadon green facets, underscores the natural sophistication of this eau de toilette.
In the same color as the bottle, the Tourmaline box features embossed tone-on-tone logos and is bordered by a vertical silver strip that sets off the raised celadon green letters of the Charriol name.
Tourmaline ideally complements the Eau de Toilette and Eau de Parfum for Women by Parfums Charriol – opulent, rich, luxurious fragrances. Tourmaline Eau de Toilette, 100 ml, 50 ml, 30 ml spray.
Tourmaline was launched in 2010.

Tourmaline Fragrance Reviews

I wouldn't have guessed it is aquatic, it is real nice, in a simple way it is actually very pleasant. It smells fresh, with a bit of florals, so it isn't boring really. I don't find it very green, it is more a light floral scent, and I would mind owning one bottle for spring and summer.
I always go back to my decant to smell it, pretty scent. Would make a nice gift and it would smell good to a lot of people. It reminds me of True Religion in its freshness and transparency.

This perfume was my first Floral Green and to be honest, I thought it would be 'fresher'. It is a basic floral, nothing special but nice for every day wear. This perfume is perfect for around the house or just whenever you want to smell like something. Its not too strong and I find the staying power lasts longer on clothes then on my skin. I also spray it in my hair and find it wonderful in your hair.

Watery notes with slightly bitter-sweet flowers and some woodsy notes behind all. Tourmaline is gentle and romantic, it works clean and attractive....I think should be pleasant to anybody. Actually it smells like the color of its bottle - watery turquoise. Reminds me somehow of spring time. It's always good to have at hand something like this!

A nother gardenia perfume for gardenia lovers you have to try this one much lighter than Private Collection Tuberose Gardenia but still lasts for hours.The bottle is adorable.

I had to have it. I love the original so much. A huge gardenia hit in the heart (which is great by me) it defies the freshest of top notes that had me thinking it was going to some kind of high citrus fragrance. Tourmeline lasts well with a dry down that diminishes into a soft woody warm rose powder. Pretty Dazzling and Glamorous

Tourmaline seems to me more floral aquatic than green. Unfortunately, I'm not an aquatic lover and though the bottle is gorgeous, I don't enjoy the fragrance enough to buy it. This scent for me is something like Nautica fragrances would smell.
