Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Far Away Exotic Eau de Parfum

A truly surprising gem from Avon, Far Away Exotic is a love-it-or-hate-it spicy tropical bomb. It's affordable, lasts ages, and smells far more expensive than it is. Prepare for a unique, chai-like scent profile that will transport you to warmer climes.

Statement

Our Verdict - Le Roy Soleil Eau de Parfum

A truly opulent and complex blast from the past, Le Roy Soleil is a tropical fruit cocktail blended with warm spices and deep woods. It's a polarizing scent - some find it a masterful work of art, others a slightly obnoxious relic of the 90s, but few deny its unique character and potent sillage. A confident choice for those who dare to stand out.

Season and Occasion Fit

Far Away Exotic Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Summer Autumn

Also Works:

Spring Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Formal

Its strong projection and exotic, spicy sweetness make it a bit much for the office but perfect for a date or a casual summer evening. While rich enough for some formal settings, its playful tropical character might not suit all. It's definitely not for sport.

Le Roy Soleil Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Summer Autumn

Also Works:

Spring Winter

Built for the cooler edges of the year - autumn and summer pair best.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

Its potent projection and unique, complex blend of fruits and spices make it a bit much for the office. However, it's a stellar choice for dates and formal events, where its luxurious warmth and 'boozy' fruity character can truly shine without overpowering. It can be worn casually too, but leans towards statement rather than everyday comfort.
