Avon Toque de Amor is a Cologne launched in 1960. Toque de Amor opens with Water Lily, Bergamot, Lemon, and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Green Notes, Floral Notes, Neroli, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Musk, Amber, and Sandalwood. Avon's Toque de Amor carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This is a nostalgic trip for many, a classic Avon that evokes cherished memories. It's a gentle, aldehydic floral with a woody backbone that still charms decades on.

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:
Spring Fall Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its moderate longevity and sillage make it suitable for office and casual wear, as it won't overpower. The classic floral profile makes it versatile for daytime, but perhaps a bit understated for very formal events or a lively date night.

About

Opens with a bright, clean burst of aldehydes, zesty lemon, and delicate water lily. This sparkling top layer soon gives way to a lush heart where green notes entwine with soft iris, mimosa, and the subtle fruitiness of melon. As it dries down, a comforting blend of woody notes, creamy sandalwood, and warm amber emerges, rounded out by a touch of vanilla and earthy oakmoss, creating a beautifully balanced classic floral.
