I wasn't tempted to try this until I had smelt it at work and asked someone what it was and they said it was the new fragrance from Avon called Brazil Beat. You can buy this in Body Cream, Perfume and the Body Mist, which is a body spray really.

I looked out for this in the next Avon book and it was on offer for £1.75. Price wise I thought that was ok, but when I saw the proper price of £3.50, I wasn't sure if I would go that far for any Body Spray. The bottle is only 100ml after all, not 1 litre!

This is a pump action spray. I find these last a bit longer than aerosols, as you can squirt out a little if you want. i tend to spray about 10 sprays of this in the morning and that seems to cover my clothes alright.

The bottle is a clear plastic, so you can see the orange liquid through the bottle. The pump for the spray goes all the way to the bottom corner, so you should get a good amount out. The pump part is covered by a small plastic lid that kept coming off in my bag, even though I could hear it click when I pressed it down. There is a wrap around label on the bottle and it has a small picture of some fruit and flowers. The label is a kind of cream colour and the writing is in pinks and oranges.

Now to the scent. Was it any good? Well since I smelt it and then bought it, then I do like the scent. When I first saw the range in Avon I didn't buy it as I thought it looked cheap and nasty. The smell is nice and summery. It is very fruity and I would say it is tangerines, with a slight grapefruit and melon twist. it says it has floral tones, but I can't smell no flowers. I guess there is a heavy musky scent mixed up in here, but I guess that breaks up the fruit scent a bit. I think the smell is delicious. I'm not sure I would say it was a young scent, but I couldn't see my gran ordering it!

The only bad thing is that it doesn't seem to last that long after you spray it. By lunch time i couldn't smell it at all, and I would have expected something of that price point to last a bit longer. It's alright to reapply when it's on special offer, but you could spend a fortune on normal price!

It's nice and I will try the perfume next. Hopefully they will bring out a shower gel, I will stock up while it is on offer, as it is nice for me!
