Avon Patrick Dempsey Legacy is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2011. Patrick Dempsey Legacy opens with Neroli, Galbanum, and Basil, settles into a heart of Oakmoss, Lavender, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Sequoia, Virginia Cedarwood, and Patchouli. Avon's Patrick Dempsey Legacy carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

Patrick Dempsey Legacy is a green, aromatic woody with a classic masculine shape. Galbanum and lavender give it a sharp herbal edge, and the cedar and patchouli base is dry and steady. A traditional scent that does its job.

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.
