    I like the notes for that MPG, but I'm not sure how I feel about wearing 'Turkey Wood'!

    Sounds good! I kinda hope this years Eternity smells different from 2007s, which smelled identical to 2006.

    Hahaha Vanillagirl Turkey is not a bird :-D…it's a country! But then, what kind of trees do they have overthere? It seems such a bare place to me.

    It sounds very different, but that doesn't always mean anything.

    MW, my French is so bad that I was thinking it was “turquoise wood”. And as you may have surmised, children who grow up speaking English are often puzzled by a country named after a big, flightless bird. At least I was. :-o

    I think I liked it better when I thought it was “turquoise wood”.

    My French is so bad I don't even translate, and it sounds just lovely as Bois de Turquie if you don't bother to think about what it means!

    I'm from Spain and I have already smelt this new Eternity Summer. I can say it smells quite similar to Eternity Summer 2005 (actually, I have it). It's different from the fresh scent of 2006 and 2007.

    Actually I found 2007 to be much different from 2006. I fell in love with the fresh, clean, floral notes of 2006 and felt sadly disappointed when they didn't bring it back. Last year I sprayed a sample when they released the fragrance and found it to be quite repelling. I noticed they added a fruity note and on me it smelled stale and old ladyish.

    I'm not sure I can remember any of them that well, although I know I tried last year's on a test card.
