Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - James Bond 007

This perfume is a proper little bargain, punching well above its weight. It's a sweet, spicy blackberry-vanilla combo that's got a dedicated following for good reason, though some pick up an odd 'pencil shavings' or 'vinyl' note. Grab it if you see it, as it's often discontinued.

Our Verdict - Prima

Avon Prima, or Dreams as it's known across Europe, is a surprisingly well-blended, mature, and budget-friendly fruity rose. It's a classy crowd-pleaser that punches above its price point, though not everyone gets the promised fruit notes.

Season and Occasion Fit

James Bond 007

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

Also Works:

Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Office

Its moderate sillage and sweet berry-vanilla profile make it fantastic for casual wear and dates. While light enough for office wear for many, its sweetness might be too much for very formal or sporty settings.

Prima

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

Also Works:

Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual

Also Works:

Date Formal

Its non-offensive and subtle nature, combined with a 'forever' lasting power for many, makes it ideal for office and casual wear. It's a bit too understated for formal events and absolutely not for sport.
