Avon Passion Dance is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2003. Passion Dance opens with Papaya, Lemon, and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Immortelle, Water Lily, Rose, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. Avon's Passion Dance carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Passion Dance is truly divisive. Some rave about its unique dark rose and woody facets, praising it as a hidden gem that smells far more expensive than it is. Others find it harsh and suffocating, equating it to 'moldy grapefruit' or even a 'graveyard' smell. Definitely not a safe blind buy.

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

Its strong, often described as 'heavy' and 'masculine' character, makes it less suitable for office or casual daytime wear. However, its intensity and complex woody-rose profile are ideal for making a bold statement on a date or for an evening formal event, with many reviews suggesting it's best for night.

About

Opening with a sharp, almost bitter grapefruit and tangy papaya, Passion Dance quickly delves into a deep floral heart where black rose, jasmine, and immortelle intertwine. The base provides a robust, earthy foundation of vetiver, patchouli, and oakmoss, with touches of warm amber and musk, creating a complex, dark chypre experience.
