Avon Always is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2005, created by Olivier Cresp. Always opens with Kiwi and Jasmine, settles into a heart of Immortelle, Poppy, Tulip, and Lily, and dries down to a base of Woody, Musk, and Bamboo. Avon's Always carries a Favourite verdict, a white floral-led wear.

This one's a divisive throwback. Some love its zingy, fresh greenness for a mood lift, while others find it too sour and sharp. It's a testament to the early 2000s fruity-floral trend, with a decidedly unique, if polarising, character.

Its fresh, clean, and energising profile makes it suitable for casual wear, office settings (if applied lightly) and sport. However, the tartness and green notes mean it's less suited to formal events or romantic dates, where a softer, more complex fragrance might be preferred.

About

Always opens with a zesty, tart explosion of kiwi and bright jasmine, quickly followed by a verdant wave of bamboo. The heart reveals an unusual floral blend of lily and immortelle, adding a slightly bitter, spicy edge. It dries down to a clean, woody musk, maintaining a fresh and green quality throughout.
