Avon Far Away is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1994, created by René Morgenthaler and Xavier Renard. Far Away opens with Fruity Notes, Orange, Ylang-Ylang, and Peach, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Violet, and Osmanthus, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Avon's Far Away carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Divisive yet iconic, Far Away is a potent vanilla-peach punch that evokes nostalgia for some and sends others running for the hills. Love it or hate it, its longevity can't be denied - a classic Avon beast, even if reformulations sting for some long-time fans.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

A potent blend of sweet peach and juicy orange opens, quickly embraced by creamy coconut and heady ylang-ylang. The heart unfolds into a rich floral bouquet of jasmine, gardenia, and violet, all cushioned by a warm, powdery vanilla base. Sandalwood and amber provide a deep, resonant finish that lingers for hours.
