Far Away Avon
Far Away Avon, launched in 1994, is a women's fragrance created by René Morgenthaler and Xavier Renard. The opening is a sweet and tropical burst, with coconut and ylang-ylang leading into a heart of jasmine and gardenia, where violet and freesia add a powdery, floral depth. The base consolidates into a warm and creamy vanilla, supported by sandalwood, amber, and musk. The overall character is sweet and comforting, blending white florals with a hint of lactonic notes. It suits evening occasions, particularly in the cooler months, and the setting of a cozy home or a quiet, intimate dinner.
