A friend of mine recently became an avon rep and wishing to be a supportive friend I decided to place an order for a number of different Avon products. Having never tried Avon before, the first thing I noticed was how cheap some of the products were and felt a little unsure if this reflected their quality in any way. I first tried this fragrance by rubbing my wrist across a specially scented page in the Avon catalogue and at the time I couldn't decide if I liked it or not but at just £11 for 50ml I decided to give it a whirl. Just seven days later my perfume arrived. The packaging very simple to say the least, a plain cream box with an equally plain bottle ...  Read the complete review

I was given a bottle of Incandescence for Chrimbo in a gift set, I liked the bottle straight away even though it's quite bland but wasn't too keen on the fragrance. Then one day my stock pile of shower gel had run completely out so I started dismantling all these sets I've received (and bought myself!)  to extract all the shower products, after showering I noticed how pretty the Incandescence gel smelt so decided to give the perfume another try. It's a floral perfume, there's no arguing about that. It has quite a heady scent when you first spray it, which I presume is down to the orchid notes although I can't actually pick that particular fragrance out ...  Read the complete review

Every year without fail my mother buys me an Avon perfume for Christmas and my Birthday... and any other occasion that comes along for that matter! It's worsened since she became an Avon representative and this year I ended up with two bottles of Avon perfume for Christmas, one of which was Incandessence. This was not a fragrance I had come across before, but having looked on the Avon website it appears that it was an old fragrance that Avon have recently brought back due to its popularity. The box this is packaged in is cream with gold lettering, and despite the slightly textured feel to the box, it doesn't look particularly special. Open the box ...  Read the complete review

As my friend is an Avon rep, I get to sample lots of her Avon products before deciding whether to buy them, and one of the ones I tested and later treated myself to was a 50ml bottle of Avon's Incandessence eau de parfum. I paid £10 for a bottle, but depending on the catalogue issue, you can pay up to £12 I believe, and as low as £6-8 depending on special offers. The perfume bottle is simple, unobtrusive but effective, being a squat ovoid in shape and a lid that takes up half of the overall shape of the bottle. In the lower hemisphere sits the golden coloured perfume in the glass bottle, and the top hemisphere is a frosted creamy white coloured lid with the ...  Read the complete review

The bottle is very attractive looking, it has been designed well. I was an Avon representative some time ago and while working with them this fragrance was introduced. I remembered it from before when I and my mother would order from the Avon catalogue. It is a strong secent and therefore personally I don't like it. It does however last a fair amount of time, it doesn't fade away as do a lot of Avon fragrances because this is and eau de parfum rather than an eau de toilette. I think it's a very affordable gift to give to someone and even to keep for ones self if you like strong smells. Don't get me wrong, it's not over-powering as it is a floral and fruity fragrance.
