Avon Far Away Gold is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Calice Becker. Far Away Gold opens with Orchid, Freesia, and Peach, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Jasmine, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Avon's Far Away Gold carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

A creamy, tropical vanilla powerhouse that divides opinion on its resemblance to the original Far Away. Some find it a softer, more refined sister, while others call it overly sweet and headache-inducing. Master perfumer Calice Becker delivers exceptional bang for your buck.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Given its strong longevity and sillage, Far Away Gold is less suited for office wear, where it might overwhelm. It's excellent for dates and formal events due to its rich, sensual character and 'beast mode' performance; for casual wear, apply lightly, especially in warmer weather.

About

Far Away Gold opens with a sumptuous blast of peach, softened by the delicate whispers of orchid and freesia. The heart blossoms into a rich, creamy white floral blend of jasmine, orange blossom, and a prominent, almost 'banana-like' ylang-ylang. The base offers a warm, enveloping embrace of vanilla, amber, and sandalwood, creating a sweet, powdery and at times almost gourmand drydown that lingers beautifully.
