Fabulous Fragrances...

...all in one place. Avon. You cannot go wrong in choosing a fragrance from Avon. Outspoken by Fergie is a scent that has staying power. It is not a celebrity hit-and-run perfume. It is available in several variations and all of them are glorious. We haven't tried any of the Reese Witherspoon selections but we love their names: Live Without Regrets, Love to the Fullest, Laugh Often, to name a few.

A Fever of Fragrance

   

Emanuel Ungaro’s designs have always been known for their classic imaginative use of fabric, cut and design and this head-turning fragrance is no exception. 

Avon’s new fragrance from U by Ungaro is Fire and it does indeed smolder—but always delicately with  Chypre florals and smoldering woods. 

Top notes of Raspberry, Mandarin Chinese Osmanthus delight and the Middle-- floral notes of Lychee Flower, Rose Absolute, White Honeysuckle further add to the perfume cocktail.

The Smoldering base notes—Sleek Amber, Patchouli, Sandalwood, Sensual Musk intensify and complete the banquet for the sense of smell and memory.

Even the bottle is sensual, fluid and exquisite. A lovely and enchanting fragrance.

Absynthe

Avon's new Christian Lacroix Absynthe fragrance is as cutting edge and stylish as you would expect. Named after absinthe, la Fée Verte , the notorious drink that inspired many turn-of- the-19^th century bohemians and was the downfall of others, this lovely intoxicating perfume is evocative of warm Spring and spicy Summer evenings and makes a lovely addition to your fragrance wardrobe.

Absinthe, by the way, may not have been as sinister as legend holds. One of the reasons it was so popular is that the drink, which is a spirit and not a liqueur, came to the forefront at a time when wine was very expensive due to a blight that wiped out much of the wine grape crop. But Absinthe was very high in alcohol—45% to 74%-- and contained thujone, which was perceived as an addictive psychoactive drug. By 1915 . Absinthe was eventually banned in the United States and in many European countries.

Forgo the glass of Absinthe, however, and consider the enthralling Absynthe eau de parfum fragrance from Avon. A heady mix of vivid florals and rich woods, the scent has top notes of absinthe extract, golden freesia and green anise and mid notes of orchid, saffron, and narcissus nectar and a drydown to antique wood, ebony musk, myrrh and amber. It is lovely to behold and even lovelier to wear.

Absynthe joins two other recent Avon fragrances: Spotlight, a refreshing mingling of citrus, bergamot, white freesia, tuberose and sandalwood that is so right for warmer months, and Jet Femme, a light-hearted yet heady scent for any season. There is an invigorating Jet Homme as well.

Keep some, give some but you really cannot have too many fragrances, especially this time of year.
