This is something I’ve liked for ages, and something I’ve been meaning to write about for ages too. Ciao have only recently added it though.
Anyway, this is something from Avon. It is only available from Avon and has been around for a good few years.
It’s Sunny Skies. Which is a perfume produced especially for Avon. The perfume comes in a tall cardboard box which is yellow and pale blue in colour. The name ‘Sunny Skies’ is written side ways down the centre of the box in blue lettering. The bottle contains 50mls of perfume.
The actual bottle itself is made from a misty coloured glass, and is quite slim and tall, with a ribbed metallic lid. The name ‘Sunny Skies’ is again written down the centre of the bottle but this time in silver lettering. The perfume inside the bottle has a slight yellow tinge to it. The bottle has a push down top that squirts out the perfume.
I think the overall design and packaging of the perfume looks quite stylish and sophisticated.
The smell of this is very nice. It’s fresh and light and not too over powering. It reminds me of the type of perfumes that Next sells. I think it’s suitable to wear anytime, either during the day or at night. I would say this was probably more suitable for the younger market, say 18 to 35. The perfume lasts well and doesn't need to be reapplied throughout the day.
In the Avon book this is described as 'A blend of exotic fruit, melon and osmanthus brightened by rose, waterlily and lily of the valley'. I personally can't detect the majority of these smells, but the lily of the valley is very obvious. There's a slight hint of rose but I'm not sure about the melon! The perfume actually reminds my quite a bit of Polo Sport for Woman by Ralph Lauren.
This is only of my favourite perfumes at the moment. I like the fact its so cheap and cheerful. At £8 it's a great bargain and even better when it's only £4!
This reminds me of the summer, I took a bottle of this on hoilday, so it also reminds me of drunken stupors and hang overs from hell! It makes me think of the beach though and summer days.
This cost me £4 for the last Avon catalogue, it is usually £8 but it’s often on special offer. So it’s worth stocking up while it’s cheap.
Its available from the Avon catalogue if you ask your local Avon representative, or online at www.avon.co.uk
