Your Turn II

I went by Ulta today to sample this and they didn't have the product officially out on the floor yet, but a very sweet pair of employees offered to grab me a product for purchase from the back room. Thus, against my better judgement, I ended up blind buying the travel size. I was worried that I wouldn't like it, as there was a lot I did not enjoy about the original version of Your Turn, but these notes had me so curious that I was willing to take a chance anyways. And I'm very happy to say that I was pleasantly surprised with this fragrance! That said, I would not consider it blind buy safe, and not one I would have bought had I gotten the chance to sample it beforehand. When I first sprayed this on, I got a huge hit of spicy pimento berry that shifted into sweet plum and back again until it calmed. Then it was a very sophisticated, rich black tea accompanied by hints of fruity fig and sweet vanilla orchid that would shift back and forth. Finally, it dried down into a creamy cedarwood and vetiver. The last thing I could smell was the smooth, slightly sweet frankincense before it faded completely from my skin. This fragrance changed very frequently as I wore it, and it felt like I was smelling something different every few minutes. It was like each note was fighting for dominance but not in an aggressive way, more like an easy, gradual shift. It almost feels like the darker, much more matured version of Eilish 1 but with Your Turn DNA. It's less sweet and much fruitier, but there's still an undercurrent of spiciness and vanilla. A lot more feminine leaning than her previous unisex fragrances. Very 'spa', very 'hotel lobby'. The longevity is on par with Billie's other fragrances, but the projection is considerably weak. That aside, this is a really beautifully crafted fragrance. Well done, Billie! Also I'm not sure why the note listed for the pimento berry (allspice) is a pimento pepper lol. Hope they fix that soon.

Your Turn II launched my fragrance obsession. I haven't worn fragrance since Chanel Chance in college (let's not talk about how many years ago that was but uh, not that long after Chance launched :-0) and only sought this out because I love Billie ever so much. Since falling for YT II I've tried tons of different perfumes, seeking out similar notes to YT II, and I just keep coming back to this because, to me, it's perfect. Every single stage of this just hits for me--the initial burst of green leaves and spicy fruitiness, then it sweetens slightly at the heart, and then my very favorite part - THE DRY DOWN!! ((melting emoji)) It's woody and cozy but light and tea-like at the same time. Seriously go spray this on a piece of clothing and then smell it the next day. My watch band always smells incredible because of YT II, and it's such a comfort when trying other scents, that I can just sniff my watch band and recenter in YT II. I did sample Halfeti based on reviews here and I do get why the comparison is drawn. I love Halfeti too! But it's much richer, denser, more fragrantly spiced (not to mention like 3-4x the price). I'd love a small bottle of it someday, but it's definitely a special occasion / night time / cozy vibe, whereas YT II has something for every season.

obsesseddd with this, its become my signature fragrance. the frankincense paired with the black tea and small hint of vanilla makes you smell so seductive and like incense in the best way possible. my coworkers can tell when i've been in a room because they can smell it in the air and im constantly getting compliments on it wherever i go. some might be too afraid of it leaning a bit more masculine, but frankly i think the tea helps balance that out if you care about something like that. my only complaint is that it doesn't last very long, which is typical for an eilish fragrance, but out of her collection i think this lasts the longest. definitely a more nighttime type of smell, but when paired with a lighter vanilla (my combo is this + only human) it makes it more suitable for daytime wear.

Yum! On paper it's more masculine leaning than on skin, so definitely spray it on yourself to try! On skin it's sweeter and refreshing and comforting. It's a well-rounded, slightly floral tea smell (would not call this floral forward though). The fruit in here is perfect--not synthetic, not overly sweet or juvenile, and the plum and fig smell so ripe and juicy (not a planty/green fig). Compared to her other fragrances, it's definitely the freshest--no sandalwood, peppery, or musky vibe. But it still has a resinous quality to it that wouldn't classify it as super "clean". Only disappointing quality is its longevity, after an hour or so I had to put my nose all the way up to my arm to smell it. If not for this, immediate purchase for me. (Jealous of people found it lasted/projected!)

I got a decant of this from a shop I get loads of decants from. The first Your Turn wasn’t for me, but this one is great! It’s blended really nicely (it’s on par with some of the niche perfumes I’ve smelled), reminds me of a posh men’s soap, but has enough sweetness in the plum and vanilla orchid to be easily wearable for men and women. I really like the bottle design, so I’m happy that this iteration is up my alley 😁. It’s fairly long wearing, but it’s one that you catch a whiff of when moving around but I don’t think others would smell it unless they’re close to you. Can’t wait for it to release in the UK

at first a spicy plum tea, with an undercurrent of vanilla orchid. the spiciness cuts down after a little bit... revealing a softer, fresh vanilla as opposed to a sticky one (shout out vetiver and cedar). the plum, tea, and vetiver/cedar/frankinsence combo can come off slightly masculine and earthy, but the sweetness of the vanilla reins them in and softens the profile to a wearable, sexy, and unique scent upon dry down. much more tolerable than your turn OG which i do not like. a darker, deeper, warm spicy and fruity scent with a little sting from the pimento. very exciting and beautiful.

I picked up a bottle at Ulta after testing it; I love this fragrance! It reminds me of a softer, slightly sweeter version of the Noir 29 (which I also like, but is too strong for me and gives me a headache). Gives me “apothecary witch” vibes. Update: this is my absolute favorite perfume, but damn it does not last. Maybe it’s my skin chemistry as I have longevity problems with a lot of fragrances, but all of the Eilish perfumes (and I love all of them), have the shittiest longevity on me. I just wish they lasted longer because I’ve nearly gone through my whole bottle already 😩

I personally find this to be extremely long lasting and projects quite well, I definitely have a scent bubble and trail. Her best perfume by far. To me, it smells like the dry down of Tom fords black orchid which is great! I have wanted that perfume for years but I just hate the opening of it. So this is right up my alley. It’s just such a nice blend and personally I don’t smell the alcohol at all. It smells really expensive to me.

I finally got my hands on a sample, and I'm so happy I could cry. I love this so much I want to eat it! What a beautiful creation. Quite fruity up front, but not sweet. Then settles into a complex, slow fireworks of florals and woods. Green enough to be fresh, but with unmistakable warmth. It's distinctly different from the OG, but it feels like close family. OMG, I just know I'm going to live in this for the next long while. LOVE.

Needless to say, I was NOT expecting to enter Ulta to buy YSL and end up leaving with this as well. It's incredibly good bang for buck, has some sweet YSL vibes entwined with Giorgio Armani vibes. Very woody spicy opening that mellows into a musky sweetness if that is even possible. Even if I'm not a fan of her music, her cologne is going to be in my regular rotation.

I absolutely love this perfume! You can smell every single note and they layer beautifully. It has a woodsy, yet still sweet smell - comparable to smelling tree sap after it rains. Almost smells the way a blueberry tastes. Youthful & feminine but not overwhelmingly so. Utterly seductive and sexy. Easy to fall in love with.

Her best perfume by far. I really don’t care for any of the others. It’s a dark, sweet, mysterious and sexy plum and tea fragrance. I suppose it could be unisex, but in my opinion it’s feminine because of the sweetness. I can’t even explain precisely why I love it. It’s just intriguing and beautiful!

I love this scent! My friend brought it in to work for me to smell before the holidays and I had to order it. I'm definitely surprised at all of the hate. I just started getting into perfume and the smell is absolutely amazing. Well worth the money!

i enjoy this perfume. it takes a second sniff to get used too since its not an expected smell. but as soon as you get that second whiff, you love it. my opinion may also be swayed since i am a huge fan of hers. so keep that in mind with my review.

After the dry down, an incredible scent. It’s very sexy and mysterious. It will stop a potential mate in their tracks!! It smells very expensive, and lasts a long time. Would wear this on a date or night time. Can’t go wrong with this one!

The scent smelled amazing. I tested it in store today at Ulta, it's not nearly as good as the first and this is a much more masculine scent compared to any of the others but I like it. The spice comes through as well.

i love this on my lady, so much, but i’m also surprised nobody had pointed the fact that it’s super similar to halfeti! it’s pretty amazing, and projects on her really well. would buy for her again.

This smells like the morning in the fruit garden after strong storm, you’re having a cup of black tea and 4-6 hours ago you sprayed Eilish n.2 on yourself. Probably the best perfume by her yet.

This is SOOO nice. Smooth, light, so easy to wear, will likely be great for layering as well. A no-brainer purchase! Sits VERY close to the skin but lasts for 8+ hours.

One word comes to mind to describe this, sexy. If I had to be more specific, it’s incredibly unique, dark, classy, and alarmingly loud in sophistication.
