Rashi, on Esth 2:12

“Now when every virgin’s turn came to go in to the king, after all had been done for setting them off to advantage, it was the twelfth month: so that for six months they were anointed with oil of myrrh, and for other six months they used certain perfumes and sweet spices.”

“turn Heb. תֹּר, her time.”
