Avon City Rush is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012. City Rush opens with Bergamot, Ivy, and Plum, settles into a heart of Rose, Orchid, and Dahlia, and dries down to a base of Woody, Musk, and Patchouli. Avon's City Rush carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one's a divisive hit from Avon. Many find it surprisingly sophisticated for the price, a dead ringer for Gucci Guilty with better longevity, while others are left cold by what they perceive as a plain, linear scent. Either way, it's a plum-heavy comfort scent with a loyal following.

About

City Rush opens with a deep, juicy plum note, brightened by a fleeting touch of bergamot and a green whisper of ivy. The heart unfolds into a rich floral bouquet of rose, dahlia, and orchid, adding a creamy sweetness without being cloying. As it settles, a woody, musky base emerges, grounded by earthy patchouli, leaving a warm and subtly powdery trail that feels both comforting and elegant.
