My Forever First Love
Does it make sense to write a review about a fragrance that hasn't been produced for about 16-20 years? No. Probably not. But I have to leave a love letter here because I still think about it, because I just can't let go after all these years. I miss it so terribly. Maybe it was just a first love that is better in my head than it was in reality - wild, daring, intense, bittersweet, unforgettable.

I was 14 when I first encountered it. It was love at first sniff. Hormones released that made my brain and body dance. Its presence filled the entire room - its allure akin to a magnetic field. I had to have it. I wanted it with me from that day on. In its company, I felt more confident, older, more experienced, even very sexy, although I was still quite innocent.

Unfortunately, production ceased between us, and our romance had to end.

Years later, I still think about the beautiful moments we shared. Sometimes these memories resurface, and I suddenly think of it out of nowhere. I can smell it all of a sudden; I can't explain it. Yesterday was one of those days, suddenly I just smell Surrender, and longing takes hold of me.
I miss it so much! I would love to experience it one more time - its warm embrace. It was truly almost perfect, perhaps only in my memory.
But unfortunately, that's all that remains for me.

I have been searching in vain for years for a substitute, a successor.

Avon! Why did you take it away from me?

Finally, I have you back........
When I treated myself to this fragrance in 2004, I was immediately smitten. At that time, my son was 5 years old, and I was on a girls' trip with a few friends. In the evenings, when the sun had set and we were heading out for dinner, I wore this wonderful, warm, extraordinary scent for the first time. It started off slightly fruity and then became very sweet and oriental. Almost a bit like pear. I can't quite describe it. Back then, such fragrances were not known; gourmands only came later. I was often complimented on it. And then suddenly, it was gone. I always felt that despite other beautiful fragrances, it was missing from my collection. So I am even happier that I rediscovered it abroad two months ago. It was significantly more expensive, but the main thing is to buy it. And now the package has arrived. And it was just like before. I am very happy.......

fresh oriental
I had to come to terms with the fact that this fragrance had already been discontinued right after I discovered it - so: quick backup bottles!
This little masterpiece is clearly oriental yet not heavy. You can smell something fruity-herbal-fresh (bayberry) and thankfully, Avon has managed to rein in the musk and vanilla this time. To be honest: if I had received a standard sample - I wouldn't have credited this fragrance to Avon. For me, it's on the same level as the other very good Avon creations, Absinthe and Hervé Léger.

At the top, there is bergamot tea, in the middle come white (not cloying) white flower petals, which have a slightly cool touch, along with that bayberry note, and at the end, amber and cedar become increasingly noticeable.

For me, very perfect!
