Speedy review: Perfect Nonsense Figgy Matcha edp, ɓy Avon.

 If you're into fragrances that break traditions, this fig-meets-matcha unisex perfume passes the vibe check. It’s the perfect everyday matcha perfume that’s like a reset for your senses. Let’s get it.

A sensory plot twist for your senses - this floral green scent that's gourmand-adjacent will have you dripping in main character energy as you take metaphorical sips of creamy and sustainable matcha... then feast on our high-key juicy figs. An energetic yet calming floral green scent for a script flip you didn’t see coming.

Clock in early on this one… it’s serving scents that makes no sense yet arouse every sense… and it’s impossible to gatekeep. #JustSaying

I'm not a fan of matcha in terms of tasteq, but the other new addition to the Perfect Nonsense fragrance line really impressed me, so I'm ready to dive in in Figgy Matcha to find out if if ít can stand proudly next to it...

Speedy review: Perfect Nonsense Banana Oud edp, ɓy Avon.

 Ready to embrace the unexpected? Meet Perfect Nonsense Banana Oud Eau de Parfum - a scent collision that defies all fragrance norms.

1010, no notes - this fabulously fluid floral fruity scent with lush and velvety bananas and bright and bold florals give 'I just touched down from a tropical vacay’; whilst the deep, oud-inspired woods bring the mystery and gatekeep what went down.

Don’t sleep on this. It’s serving scents that makes no sense yet arouse every sense… and it’s about to go mainstream: A floral fruity niche fragrance I've for an unhinged and unbothered tropical noir aura.

It’s the perfect everyday perfume for static-free living. #NoNoiseJustVibes.

Banana and oud?!! I'm listening...

Kayali has a banana-based fragrance I've been lusting after, as well as a collection centered around oud, but this is much more affordable. But can it stand proudly next to them, or ìs it another "good but not great" from the Perfect Nonsense line?

My common sense didn’t awaken; reviewing Attraction Awaken for her edp, by Avon.

Make bold moves with the tempting oriental and woody fragrance of Attraction Awaken for Her...

Feel the anticipation with juicy blackcurrant, sensual black tuberose and a powerful passion potion accord - a note infused with leather, amber, musk and rum-soaked wood.

Long story short; I ordered the wrong thing, because I had convinced myself that Attraction Awaken was the latest release in the Attraction line. I remember flìcking though the catalogue and thinking "hmm, I'm  not sure why this would be chosen as a late spring/summer release", which should have been enough to make me pause and take another look - but nope, I guess that I was having a dumb day...

Anyway now I have it, let's find out how well this wears during the warmer months.

I want to play: reviewing Attraction Game edp, by Avon.

JSpritz the sensual fragrance onto your pulse points to tempt your senses, tease your body and stimulate your mind...

Attraction is a game and it’s time to play, so make your move with the woody and amber perfume of Attraction Game for Her Eau de Parfum. 

The fragrance that’s designed to stimulate your sensory neurones to unlock undeniable pleasure, with spicy pink pepper, rich dark chocolate and luxurious velvet woods.

Avon currently has a 2-for-£22 offer on the perfume's in the Attraction fragrance line, so I was going to finally get a bottle of the original alongside the new launch [Attraction Awaken]. 

However I ultimately couldn't pass up the opportunity to get the flanker I'd paid attention to since it's launch & have been seriously eying up for the past few months instead, as there'll no doubt be plenty of future offers available to pick up the original. 

So, for now, let's take another step back in the Attraction timeline and meet Attraction Game.

This intoxicating scent blends primal energy with refined elegance, creating an irresistible aura that lingers long after you’ve left the room.

I've enjoyed both of the Attraction flankers I've bought blind so far, so I think that picking up the new release i the line is a safe bet...

Makes perfect sense to me: Perfect Nonsense Choco Tuberose edp, by Avon...

 A floriental woody big scent collision that feels wild, yet somehow perfect.

Ready to embrace the unexpected? Meet Perfect Nonsense Choco Tuberose Eau de Parfum - a scent collision that defies all fragrance norms.

This floriental woody scent is thriving in its own lane with a surprise mashup of chocolate, deep and delightfully sweet; and tuberose, regally opulent and oh-so elegant.

It's time to complete my reviews on the trio of fragrances in Avon's Perfect Nonsense line. 

I've Ready  been blown away by either of the other two, which are the ones I'd thought that I'd enjoy the most, so i didn't go into this expecting much.

Ready for it?

Cheers or tears? Reviewing Perfect Nonsense Bamboozie Cocktail edp, by Avon...

A well-crafted floral citrus cocktail of scents that’ll stir up your senses...

After fragrance sellouts, order mixups and continued problems with my sense of smell, I'm finally ready to get back into testing Avon's new Perfect Nonsense fragrance trio.

Today I'm focusing on the fragrance which I thought sounded the most interesting & complex, and would be my favourite out of the bunch, based on reading the scent notes. Take a bow Bamboozie Cocktail 🍸

Hot Fuzz... [reviewing Perfect Nonsense Peppery Peaches edp, by Avon]

 A cheerful floral fruity burst for a fragrant adventure that’s as lively as you are...

Ready to embrace the unexpected? Meet Perfect Nonsense Peppery Peaches Eau de Parfum - a scent collision that defies all fragrance norms.

This floral fruity fusion’s got pink peppercorn coming in hot with a fiery kick that’ll have your spine buzzing, then BAM… peach enters the chat with its fresh and juicy vibe.

Don’t sleep on sensory plot twists like this one… it’s giving scents that makes no sense yet arouse every sense… and we’re here for it!

 I'm really excited to finally get to tuck in to Avon's new line 'Perfect Nonsense', which currently contains three fragrances. The fragrances are formed around clashing key scent notes; everything screams, energy,  uniqueness, and that a modern approach is being used.  

Peppery Peaches was the first fragrance in the line that I received [I ordered them all together from my Avon seller upon seeing that they were available in the UK, but the other two were already out of stock], so that will be my starting point for my reviews...

Re-do The Review; Far Away Shine edp, by Avon

  FREE YOUR EXTRAORDINARY

Light up the world with exotic Ispahan roses to make your inner sparkle your outer shine.

This oriental and gourmand scent is expertly crafted around Ispahan rose, an ancient and exotic Persian bloom used in beauty for over 2,000 years and celebrated by women as a symbol of inner illumination.

I hadn't known that a new Far Away flanker was coming until I saw it being advertised in a catalogue late last summer. The name and bright colour did strike me as odd for the time of the release. I ordered it anyway, as soon as I saw it being advertised in a Avon catalogue since there hadn't been a single Far Away flanker that I've outright disliked, however when I shared my thoughts on it I wasn't blown away by it. This was most likely because it is fragrance geared towards the spring/summer months, but it wasn't released until right before autumn. 

However now that brighter days are now finally here, I think that it's only fair that we revisit Far Away shine...

A Closer look at fantasy notes... [reviewing Attraction Closer edp, by Avon]

 It’s time to let your body do the talking and let the rhythm pull you closer...

An oriental gourmand perfume with an irresistible skin-to-skin accord that’s like a delicate caress to your senses.

Spritz on Attraction Closer for Her Eau de Parfum and lose yourself in the moment when two souls move together in perfect sync, hearts beat together, and bodies move in harmony.

Inspired by the passion, allure and magnetism of a sensual dance - this oriental gourmand ballet of scents features a skin-to-skin accord of creamy woods, velvet musks and sweet ambers that captures the warmth of physical touch.

It’s also got notes of juicy pear and delectable honey nectar that sets the stage for seduction.

I recently tried one of the Attraction perfumes from Avon & really enjoyed it [Attraction Intense], so I wanted to invest in more from the line and have been reading up on each one.

There's not one, but four fantasy scent notes in the juice for the new Attraction flanker; Osmasylk Natsublim is described as spicy with a hint of clean skin, Georgywood as woody & clean, and I can't find a reliable description for the other two notes. 

the lack of information on the fantasy notes left me intrigued enough to decide to continue my exploration into the Attraction fragrance line here... 

Fire & nice... [reviewing Attraction Intense edp, by Avon]

 Ignite temptation

Be irresistible: that's the aim behind our Attraction fragrance range, a collection of perfumes with subtly spiced scents and fragrance notes that aim to please.

Feel the intensity of attraction with the woody, fruity and amber fragrance of Attraction Intense for Her Eau de Parfum. Deepen your attraction with forbidden ginger essence, captivating florals and tantalising coconut essence.

Browsing through the same catalogue that introduced me to Far Away Shine, I came across the information that Attraction Intense has key notes of ginger & coconut and I immediately had to know how Avon managed to partner such an odd sounding pair together. The spicy heat from the ginger, joining with smooth & calm coconut sounds to me to be a pairing that just won't mesh well. 

I'd never really paid much attention to the Attraction line of fragrances before, always skipping to the Far Away and Eve collections. However that could change, depending on how well this impulsive purchase works for me...

Does it shine like a star? [reviewing Far Away Shine edp, by Avon]

 FREE YOUR EXTRAORDINARY

Light up the world with exotic Ispahan roses to make your inner sparkle your outer shine.

This oriental and gourmand scent is expertly crafted around Ispahan rose, an ancient and exotic Persian bloom used in beauty for over 2,000 years and celebrated by women as a symbol of inner illumination.

I hadn't known that a new Far Away flanker was on the horizon until I saw it in a catalogue, with it only being announced on various fragrance websites afterwards. 

I ordered it as soon as I saw it since there hasn't been a single Far Away flanker that I've outright disliked, so it seemed like a sure thing that I'd enjoy this one too. I've now had it for a couple of weeks and have been wearing it every day for that  time, so I now will ready to share my thoughts on it. 

To the moon and back 🌙 [reviewing Far Away Beyond The Moon parfum, by Avon]

 Capture the mystery of the moon

 

Shine bright with luxurious wild cherry, blooming Belle de Nuit flower - a nocturnal flower that blooms in the moonlight - and hypnotic Australian sandalwood.

A new Far Away flanker? A new Far Away flanker that is tied to the Far Away Beyond flanker of Far Away? A new Far Away Beyond flanker that is a parfum concentration? A new Far Away flanker of a Far Away flanker parfum which has cherry as a key scent note?! 

Gimme, gimme, gimme!!

Float like a butterfly? [Reviewing Eve Become edp, by Avon]

 Let your beauty transform and evolve as you move with the fruity and floral perfume of Eve Become Eau de Parfum. Discover the one-of-a-kind fragrance that reinvents itself with you...

Eve Become Eau de Parfum is a one-of-a-kind composition with a Butterfly Blossom chord, the scent of which changes with you.

Like a beautiful butterfly, Eve Become Eau de Parfum transforms, changes and develops throughout the day. At her heart lies the unique Butterfly Blossom chord, created from notes of jasmine, gardenia and an innovative musk molecule [this accord is exclusive to Avon]. Thanks to the unique composition, the fragrance transforms from joyful to sensual, providing a different experience every time you feel it. 

The Eve Discovery range has become something that I look forward to new launches from and the latest release is especially exciting to me, because [based on the official listed scent notes] it sounds like a bolder edition of the Eve Privè edp - a very well-made & expensive seeming release from the line. Not only that, but Avon have launched a new & exclusive scent accord for it and as I really enjoy the other new scent accord they'd created [the white oud in Far Away Splendoria], my hopes for this are high. 

Has my run of good luck with Avon fragrances finally ended, or are we still racing together?

Are sunny days coming? [reviewing Far Away Endless Sun edp, by Avon]

 Radiate from the moment you rise 

Escape to a moment of radiance when you spritz the floral, fruity and citrus fragrance onto your pulse points.

It's that time again - a new Far Away flanker is upon us.

I'm actually more excited to try this one compared to other ones in the past... and I always look forward to trying the flankers; it's meant to be richer in fruity notes & lighter in florals, and people who tried it prior to the general release say that it is one of the flankers that is greatly removed from the original Far Away. Every key scent note that Avon list is one that I enjoy and something that is less tied to the original Far Away sounds exciting, so yeah, I'm expecting great things.

A new Far Away perfume? Splendid news [reviewing Far Away Splendoria edp, by Avon]...

 Journey to the unforgettable and experience a modern, brighter twist on Oud, the liquid gold of Middle Eastern perfumery, with our new fragrance Far Away Splendoria. You won't be able to resist!  

Our new Far Away Splendoria is a one-of-a-kind scent. While traditional Oud is considered dark and masculine, we’ve created an exclusive White Oud accord for Far Away Splendoria, giving this rare Middle Eastern ingredient a fresh twist. Just as captivating as traditional Oud, but with a more feminine and sensual edge.

Inspired by the golden lands and hypnotic decadence of Arabian flowers, this fragrance was crafted by a talented trio of perfumers renowned for their Middle East expertise: Nelly Hachem-Ruiz, Nicolas Beaulieu and Julien Rasquinet.

Describing the scent, the perfumers said: “Far Away Splendoria is a perfume of pure luxury and mystery. It’s a mesmerising escape into the splendour of the Middle East landscapes. It is intriguing, sophisticated, and luxurious.”

This edition of Far Away is a gamble for me; I find oud in most perfumes very intense and it can be a migraine trigger, plus gardenia is hit or miss for me too. However the first time that Splendoria appeared in a brochure, it was hailed as   being "the world's first perfume" to use this new 'white oud' accord.

World's first something in beauty, available at a very affordable price = sold...

It's a private show... [reviewing Eve Privé edp, by Avon]

 
Embrace your individuality and let it shine 
 

You’re one-of-a-kind, so why shouldn’t your fragrance be unique too?

We’ve been doing beauty differently for 135 years, and are now excited to announce our first ever bespoke fragrance: NEW Avon Eve Privé.

You may have noticed a slight difference in how fragrances smell on your skin. Eve Privé takes the effects of the chemistry of your skin one step further, creating a completely unique scent – just for you.

As part of the customisable musk technology in Eve Privé, a delicate white musky molecule is used to support the ‘skin-feel’ accord that was exclusively designed to mix with the chemistry of your skin to enhance your natural scent and make you smell like you, only better.

Moreover, due to this molecular technology, your personal fragrance lingers for hours on end to create the feeling of a second skin.

Ohh; another new Eve Discovery perfume to learn about - just in time for the warmer weather (if we'll actually get any here). I think that the other Eve Discovery perfumes are pleasant and easy to wear over spring and summer, but I wouldn't call them top-tier quality.

Lets see how Avon does with their latest offering...

A new aura with Aurora? [reviewing Far Away Aurora edp, by Avon]

Discover a land that’s undeniably beautiful by spritzing the oriental and gourmand perfume onto your pulse points.

Escape to somewhere awe-inspiring with the beauty of the oriental and gourmand fragrance of Far Away Aurora Eau de Parfum, from your No.1 fragrace brand. A stunning beauty inspired by the natural wonder of the Northern Lights with radiant pink peppercorn, breathtaking water lily and dreamy vanilla bourbon.

It's here!!

I've been looking forward to getting to check out the latest Far Away release ever since I heard that it was in the works (somewhere around the new year). Avon are known for cheap & cheerful fragrances, but I've come to have pretty high expectations when it comes to their Far Away line. I've taken a little while to really get to know Aurora before reviewing it, to make sure I'm giving it the same chance to shine, that the other flankers I've had.

The verdict is in...

From Beyond to Infinity?! [reviewing Far Away Infinity edp, by Avon]...

Discover a cocktail of scents from across the world...

As we wait for the next new release in the Far Away line, let's go back in time and take a release from 5 years ago. Far Away Infinity debuted in 2016 and is still sold today, so it must be hitting the right spot with loads of people.

So let's jump straight in and see where this lands on my enjoyment scale...
