Avon Segno is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Yves Cassar. Segno opens with Lemon, Pepper, and Basil, settles into a heart of Whisky, Vetiver, and Lavender, and dries down to a base of Leather, Amber, and Patchouli. Avon's Segno carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

Surprisingly versatile and sophisticated for the price, Segno by Avon is a boozy, woody aroma that punches above its weight. While some find similarities to high-end designer fragrances, others dismiss it as synthetic. It's a risk worth taking for its unique character.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall
Also Works:
Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal
Also Works:
Office

With decent longevity and moderate projection, Segno is versatile enough for both office and casual wear, and its refined woody-boozy accords make it suitable for dates and semi-formal events. However, its richer profile makes it less appropriate for energetic activities like sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Segno opens with a sharp, zesty hit of lemon and basil, quickly spiced up with black pepper. This lively introduction mellows into a heart of smooth whisky and earthy vetiver, softened by a touch of lavender. The base settles into a warm, lingering blend of patchouli and amber, with a subtle hint of leather creating a distinguished finish.
