Avon Timeless is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1974. Timeless opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Gardenia, and Peach, settles into a heart of Cedar, Patchouli, Rose, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Vanilla, and Tonka Bean. Avon's Timeless carries an Acquired verdict, an amber-led wear.

This isn't for the faint of heart, or those chasing fleeting trends. Timeless is a loud, proud blast from the past - a take-no-prisoners chypre that many adore for its classic, powerful vibe, but others find a bit too 'old-fashioned.' It's a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent, with little middle ground.

About

It begins with a potent aldehydic fizz, brightened by bergamot and lemon, with a hint of peach and gardenia. This quickly melts into a rich, complex heart of cedar, patchouli, rose, and jasmine, with powdery iris contributing a sophisticated depth. The dry down is where it truly shines, a warm, opulent embrace of deep amber, creamy vanilla, earthy tonka, and musky opoponax, lingering for ages. It's a scent with a story, unapologetically classic.
