I do like nice perfumes and I am as many Ciao readers know also a big Avon fan, so with this combination, I decided that it was about time for me to try Pur Blanc. This fragrance created was by Avon for women to wear to make them feel special and beautiful about three years ago. It is described as being ‘the spirit of serenity’. It was reluctant to try it except I had a bottle for my birthday last month. If you love floral fragrances then this Avon Eau de Toilette spray is for you. It allows you to escape to another world, the world of the English country garden! (Okay so I am a romantic). I tend to use this fragrance on dull days as it helps to brighten my mood and therefore in my eyes, the day. I think this must have something to do with the rose oil within perfume mixture.
When wearing Avon’s Pur Blanc, it is better to layer this fragrance using the other bath and body products to ensure this chic aroma, ‘the spirit of serenity’ lasts all day. The perfume dries quickly on the skin and leaves no greasy spots on the skin. Both the bottles and jars come in simple, tall white design with pale grey writing enhancing their understated elegance. It makes for a very chic display and will look attractive on any dressing table, in particular mine!
**Fragrance**
The aroma is of white freesia and ylang ylang blended with peony, rose and water lily. It is a romantic fragrance yet also very relaxing. It actually reminds me of a spring morning and is prefect for a bride. (Well that how I feel. I wish this fragrance had been created fourteen years ago, as I would have worn it for my wedding day, never mind I wore Chloe instead). When spray Pur Blanc Eau de Toilette spray on my skin, the aroma soon settles allowing the peony, roses and water lilies to break though the initial freesias and ylang ylang. It is lovely but I feel is designed for the woman under forty (or young at heart), due to the fresh floral aroma. It is not overly heavy or overpowering unlike some other floral perfumes.
**Cost and Range**
A 50mls spray bottle will cost £10.00. It comes boxed and the fragrance is pale in colour.
There are currently only three other items in the Avon Pur Blanca fragrance range. Perfumed Body Spray (75mls): £3.00 Perfumed Talc (75g): £2.25 Skin Softener (150mls): £3.00
If you want to try this Pur Blanca fragrance but do not want to spend £10.00, then ask your Avon representative for a sample. If you do not have a representative then visit the Avon website and order it there. If you wish to return this Eau de Toilette spray for any reason then you with get a full money bank, guaranteed, from Avon.
Advantages: Cheap, smells great, other products available to match the spray Disadvantages: Staying power is not long enough
...am quite a fan of avon and I noticed that many other ciao members also are. This is why I thought it may be helpful to write a review on a lovely avon product. The fragrance ------------------
Pur Blanca eau de toilette spray has quite a floral kind of smell. I don't consider myself to like to many floral smells but this fragrance is very light and harmonious. It is certaintly not overpowering and has a kind of simplicity to it. The floral smell ... ...oily or greasy. Avon describes the fragrance as 'the spirit of serenity' which I tend to agree with as it is a very 'heavenly' scent.
When to wear it
-------------------
This is a fragrance that can be worn for pretty much any occasion. I think this is because it is not overpowering as mentioned before but gives a very subtle yet elegent smell. I tend to wear it as an everyday perfume. The only drawback of this fragrance is that it does not last ...

...younger market.
In the Avon catalogue it states that the perfume is a floral musk. It claims to contain white freesia, ylang ylang, peony, rose and water lily. I think the smell is very nice, it does smell quite musky, which doesn’t usually appeal to me, as I prefer something more fresh. I do like this though. It smells quite floral, and the rose smell is quite obviously there. It sounds quite like the perfume your grandmother would buy, doesn’t ... ...keen on buying a bottle without trying it, then you can ask your Avon rep for a sample to try first.
To purchase this perfume or anything else from the Avon catalogue, then contact your local rep, or have a look at www.avon.co.uk

...this product out of the Avon campaign 2 on an offer of four products. They included Moisturising bath/shower gel (200ml), shimmering body powder (40g) perfume body spray (75ml) and this perfume pur blanca. This offer cost me £10, normally the perfume pur blanca is £10 on its own in other campaigns.
This product came packed in its own seprate box, from the rest of the offer, which is how you would receive it if it wasnt in an offer. When first sprayed ... ...you only get 50ml considering Avon is suppose to be value for money, and other perfumes of 50ml in Avon may be cheaper, this product does still smell very nice and may also smell better than other Avon and none Avon perfumes. I would recommend this product to the age range of teenagers to mid-aged people, who like to go out, smelling vibrant, and full of energy who also like to smell nice on a daily bases. I will also purchase this product again, ...

As with most Avon fragrances there are also other products available in the range.

Body Spray
Talc
Moisturiser
Occasionally Avon do offers where you can get other Pur Blanca items in a gift set with the perfume for £10, *** Packaging ***
The bottle is simple and stylish and doesn't look cheap. It is clear glass with simple white writing and finished off with a white plastic lid - the perfume is in spray form.

*** Value for Money ***
The cost of 50mls is £10 which is very reasonable. If used daily a 50ml bottle will last 3-4 weeks. If layered with other items in the range less perfume is needed and 50mls will last you alot longer.
All in all this is a very good buy - cheap enough to use every day, light enough to wear for work when you don't want to over power people with your scent and lasts all day. ...

Advantages: Smells absolutely gorgeous and it’s cheap!!!!!!!!! Disadvantages: Unfortunately it doesn’t last very long
I’ve been ordering from Avon for about 5 years now and I love their perfumes, especially Pur Blanca. I love flowery smells and this is by far the best in my opinion.
Unfortunately though it doesn't last very long like most perfumes. But Avon have the solution for that too!
What I usually do is buy the shower gel, body spray and the lot. If you use all the same brand the smell lasts much longer. Those who love flowers smells will love the gorgeous ...

and black lid. It reminds me of a posh aftershave bottle really.
The size is 50 ml and at the moment costs £12.00.
It isn't a heavy fragrance, it's almost for any age and can be worn anytime of day.
I probably would wear it at night as I like PurBlanca for during the day (another Avonperfume).
The ingredients are Honeysuckle, Apricot Blossom, Cyclamen and Ginger, these are the topnotes.
In the middle you can smell Peony, Gardenia, Moonflower, and Jasmine.
The bottom notes are Sandalwood, Cashmere, Musk and Milkwood Accord.
I can smell the Sandalwood and the Musk, to be honest I don't know what Milkwood Accord is.
The fragrance lasts for quite a while, I'd say about four hours. Spraying a little behind the ears and applying some to my wrists was ample.
It is very fresh and light, not at all a heavy fragrance.
It didn't give me ...
Advantages: Smells Lovely, Low in Price, Attractive Bottle, Long Lasting Scent Disadvantages: Have Not Found Any Yet
I have got to say that I am not a huge AvonFragrances fan. I never did like that musky scent that my mother used to wear and I just couldn't bare to wear any of the other stinky perfumes from Avon that she used to give me at Christmas or on my Birthday.
However, it would seem that Avon has done some serious work on improving their fragrances since then.
The first fragrance from Avon that I tried out was PurBlanca (only because a friend forced me to try it!) and I really liked that so I decided I would see what else I could find as Avonperfume is pretty cheap.
Then I had a brilliant idea to look on eBay at some Avon products and discovered that there was this new fragrance that Avon has come out with and it was going pretty cheap on there at the time. I got my bottle of True Glow Eau de Parfum Spray at 9 quid ...
