Turn & Stare flirts with one’s desire to be noticed while remaining authentic, true to one’s self and grounded. Sensitive yet humorous, this chypre floral composition bursts with character. Aromatic notes and gentle, smooth suede ensures Turn & Stare reaffirms in a classy elegance that everyone should celebrate their difference and diversities with personal gusto.
A fragrance to turn heads in. A scent to imbue self confidance and leave a memorable stamp (with grace of course).

HOW IT WEARS
Turn & Stare opens with a glittering citrus which soon gives way to a spectacular true osmanthus underpinned by soft spice. As the fragrance dries down, the spice becomes more pronounced, enriched by the blackcurrant and then earthy patchouli. Once it has been on the skin for a few hours, the suede comes to the fore with the echoes of soft fruitiness and spice in the background. This unique fragrance lasts well, around 6-8 hours on the skin.
LORE LOVES
We love how Turn & Stare is super unique while not being over-the-top, loud or in your face. It will certainly turn heads and cause intrigue, but the star of the show will still always be the wearer. A twist on a classic men’s fragrance, Turn & Stare is wonderfully androgynous and ultra chic.
ABOUT THE BRAND
Founded by its namesake in 1997, Keiko Mecheri is all about unconventionality and the reinterpretation of tradition in fragrance. Keiko herself was born in Japan, studied in Europe and then eventually settled down in Los Angeles, California, where she founded the brand. The fragrances reflect this worldly influence while keeping a distinctly LA feel – bohemian and laid-back, but also diverse, imaginative and innovative.
Keiko Mecheri serves as a point of difference to the more traditional French perfume “establishment”. Its fragrances take ingredients and notes we think we know, and re-create them with a modern twist. To Keiko, fragrance is about capturing a brief moment in time. She acquires inspiration from travel, music, film, photography, and her own memories, which can really be felt in each one of her fragrances.
