Reading the last review i thought of something to the extent of CH Men Privé or JPG Le Male Essence de Parfum, and Segno was hyped to me as a similar to a leather and liquor fragrance. What i got, made in Mexico (Since Avon seems to have several facilities around the world, that besides any possible reformulation which modified substantially the smell of the perfume) is quite far from the description of the last review.
Starting with its presentation, Segno is sold in a box with a quite nice design. But, the bottle design is astounding, i'd say better and much more interesting than most presentations in the designer realm. It's quite unstable but y'know, who cares, just put it in a good place with a stable base where it won't fall off. And it is very surely a bottle that i'll keep since it is itself a work of art.
Anyway, onto the actual fragrance:
My version presents an extremely dominant lemon opening with present lavender, to later dry down into pepper, liquor, more exactly, rye whiskey, which is not particularly sweet, but it does feel alcoholic, spicy, as if it had cumin, also contains rose and geranium undertones, Haitian vetiver (Which feels much creamier than asian vetiver, which smells like grass, Haitian does not, smells ambery, creamy, almost like amberwood) and slight amber nuances, with a present patchouli note in the base and dominant wood notes overall, as if it were tannins from a whisky barrel.
I DO NOT smell leather on it at all. So, it's overall, a woody, sweet, boozy, spicy, ambery and slighly earthy perfume. I would actually describe it as closer to Mugler's Pure Malt, Yves Rocher's Cuir Vetiver, or even, a booze and spice - forward Terre D'Hermes.
I don't consider it particularly good for colder weather like autumn and winter, but rather, as a dress up, dating, summer or spring fragrance. For fall i'd go for something like Banderas The Icon The Perfume or Bentley For Men. I think it's great for formal wear, while it's not the most elegant fragrance by any means, great for evening or night events in spring or summer, great for night wear in summer as well, dates as well, and i also see it working perfectly for office use. And frankly, i think it's one of the best bets with Avon, since it is built by a great perfumer with IFF ingredients, meaning, it uses the same ingredients as CK fragrances (But this one does actually perform) or even, some by Ralph Lauren. Good also for casual wear, but it does feel quite elegant, as with most liquor perfumes. Its longevity is very solid, of around 8 hours. And for the 15 bucks you pay for it, it's just great.
Bottom line: A banger for this price. If you want booze or a very fine vetiver, with spices, this is your frag. And if you want a cult catalog fragrance, or a dating perfume, it's also one of your best bets.
