Best Avon Perfumes – Why Avon is the Number 1 Fragrance Brand in the UK

By | April 27, 2019

Best Avon Perfumes

Avon has been selling perfume for over 100 years with new fragrances launched almost every couple of months. In fact, they are the number one fragrance brand in the UK.  So, what are the best Avon perfumes? Why are they so popular?

Let’s look at the history of Avon Perfumes

how avon started

Avon’s origins go to back to an American businessman, entrepreneur and cosmetic salesman called David Hall McConnell Sr
He was brought up on a farm and planned to become a maths teacher. However, instead in 1879 he became a salesman for a book selling agency. He was needing to earn more so decided to make perfume and add these as free gifts with book purchases. The ladies loved the perfume more than the actual books. That led to the idea of selling perfume door to door and from there the whole business grew.

By the time he died, he had over 30,000 ladies selling door to door!  For a further look at how the fragrances have changed over the years  click here

Do you recognise any of these older Avon bottles? They were given to one of my Avon customers by her mother.

Far Away was established back in 1994 and since then other fragrances have been added to the range e.g. Far Away Infinity, Far Away Gold and Far Away Rebel.  Like many of the Avon perfumes, it comes in a 50 ml bottle, a handbag size of 30 ml, a purse spray 10 ml.  It even comes with a matching anti-perspirant, shower gel, body lotion, body powder and a room fragrance set.

Other top-selling perfumes include Little Black Dress. This has been compared to J’Adore (Dior) and Mademoiselle (Coco Chanel). Added to this range more recently has been Little Black Dress Weekend and Little Black Dress Party.

Eve Collection 

Another favourite is the Eve Discovery collection which includes Eve Alluring, Eve Confidence and Eve Elegance. The latest perfume Eve Truth was launched in 2019 and fronted by Eva Mendes and is said to smell very similar to Marc Jacobs ‘Daisy’.   It was featured in the Daily Mail and in its first month, one bottle was sold every 20 seconds.
