Avon's Black Suede is a divisive one - some find it a dated, overpowering musk, while others laud it as an affordable, comforting classic. It defies expectations by presenting as a surprisingly soft, powdery oriental that's garnered a loyal following, proving that 'old school' doesn't always mean 'stuffy'.

This one's a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde. Some get a green, woody depth that evolves into something intriguing, while others are stuck with an initial blast of 'spit and sweat' or bubblegum that never quite leaves. Patience is definitely a virtue here, as it can transform and become quite likable after maceration.
