Avon 2008 EDP
Flower by Cynthia Rowley
by Richard Herpin , Frank Voelkl
Avon Flower by Cynthia Rowley is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008, created by Richard Herpin and Frank Voelkl. Flower by Cynthia Rowley opens with Citrus and Violet Leaf, settles into a heart of Water Lily, Floral Notes, Jasmine, and Lily, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Musk, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Avon's Flower by Cynthia Rowley carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.
Flower by Cynthia Rowley is a divisive floral powerhouse, a true love-it-or-hate-it scent. Expect a strong, unapologetic lily blast that some find beautiful and others find overwhelming or even 'grannyish'. It's a confident step beyond your typical Avon offering.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Best Occasions
Given its strong projection and impressive longevity, Flower is best suited for scenarios where a pronounced floral statement is appreciated, like a date or a spring casual outing. It might be too intense for an office setting unless applied very sparingly, and formal events could be a hit or miss depending on personal preference. It's definitely not for sport due to its heavy floral nature.
