This perfume is fresh and "zesty" yet it reminds me of Yves Rocher's Eryo Blue. It's odd that it smells so close to this manly fragrance but still has a softening touch to the end of it that makes it a scent that a woman can use without feeling like a lumberjack. I find it odd that she would think that a womanly scent smells like the woman just "jumped on her man fresh out of the shower". Because that is what this smells like. Not sweet and sickly like most celeb fragrances but definitely not one for the dainty and delicate floral lovers.
The Notes: Captivating Cool Herbs Luscious greens and captivating herbs create a cool effect that invigorates and refreshes the senses. Fierce Lavender Fresh with floral, minty and spicy undertones, fierce lavender delivers a modern contrast between masculine and feminine notes. Intriguing Vetiver One of the most beautiful woody notes, intriguing vetiver is wrapped in sweet leathery undertones, adding depth and sensuality to the fragrance.
For once Avon has given us a very, very nice container with appealing lavender colored perfume inside. The scent itself is quit unique for a celeb outing. It's clean and fresh (two over-used words to describe just about every fragrance!)
This floral green borders very closely on aromatic and could easily be unisex or mistaken entirely for a soft masculine scent. Strong lavender in the top passes and settles fairly quickly to a fresh, uplifting green on a vetiver base. Mint and bergamot certainly keep it clean and fresh, it has very little floral component, the green notes, lavender and mint make this far more an aromatic than floral fragrance. There also a distinct musky note in the base. This surprised me, Im not exactly sure if I like it or not, but it doesn't underwhelm me at all, if you're looking for an aromatic with feminine charm then this might be for you.
I can smell the lavender clearly and yes, the slight 'men's cologne' vibe is there too, a sharp astringent thing without the alcohol but it is softened with a whiff of florals as well. There is nothing that screams 'cheap ingredients' either and I can see a woman in slender legged jeans, patent leather loafers, crisp white shirt and red lipstick wearing this. Once again, the bottle might be one of the best things about this new celebrity fragrance.
