Far Away Dreams

I see that I am not the only one who find Far Away Dreams similar to Crystal Noir which I like. This scent is also tropical with its strong gardenia plus amber ( the coconut smell) and sandalwood notes. However FAD is much more for every day use. It is lighter and happier, less sexy, with delicious peachy notes. And this is absolutely not a copy, it has its own character and quality.I love it, one of my favourites! I hope they will not discontinue it. I agree that it could be compared as well to Noa, not in notes but in mood - a clean, refreshing, slightly powdery fragrance with personality. The lasting power on my skin is excellent, I can feel the beautiful smell all around me the whole day and even next morning in my hair! In my opinion it also combines very well wih Avon Thailand Lotus Flower products, because they create the same exotic, coconutty, relaxing ambience. The bottle is nice, too.

Hooray! I've waited weeks for this to come up on the list! I love this fragrance: Delicate florals, lots of mango and fruits, some coconut too - but this is cleverly different from other tropical sents because it hasn't been fused with aquatic, cool notes. Instead it has a definite warmth which means it's great for year-round wear. It makes me think of far away islands under a warm but lazy sun nowhere near the sea (because it omits the aquatic notes) mmmm... Not as sweet as the original Far Away, this is quite different but there's certainly a "family resemblance" in the cosy feeling radiated by the vanilla, amber and sandalwood. This isn't up-class or special enough for a romantic night out or an important social occassion but is great for day wear or cosy nights in.

I haven't really fallen in love with a perfume like I have with Far Away Dreams To me it dosn't smell cheap nor like deodorant. To me it smells comforting sexy , clean sensual.,juicy, tropical & expensive. I wear it to sleep to go out I wear it for any occasion I have stack up with 3 bottles + the one I'm using. And I bought the 2 of each the perfume skin softener , the talc & the deodorant. I am doing this because Avon has the habit of discontinuing fragrances. And I dont want to be without it..

This is a very nice, not too strong exotic scent. It smells creamy, clean, slightly musky on me. This is indeed a very wearable scent for every day and it smells expensive. I just totally agree with KellyCrisp that this is a warm, comforting scent, I think this is suitable for all seasons. The mango/musk combination is very unique. I like this more than the original Far Away, which is too sweet. Will definately recommend this!! Affordable and quality stuff!!!

Im really impressed with this perfume it is very beautiful, very long lasting good silage. The sandalwood and amber really make this perfume balanced with the slight sweet notes with hints of coconut on the first day I tried it. and smells expensive and warm. I feel like Im on a good holiday or brings me back to memories of holidays on islands. It is quite a comforting smell. Really good value for money.

someone mentioned this is sweet like tons of chocolate????? no, no sweet notes in this at all. maybe she talked about another perfume from those flankers. this one is so pure and powdery. light, airy flowertrails with tropical hints of coconut and juicy mouthwatering (not candy sweet) fruits. longlasting and nice sillage. great for this price ! avon rules (sometimes!).....

This is just the right mix of fruits, and flowers. I smell hibiscus, and pinapple at the start, and then the sandalwood, and amber show up after a few minutes. I also get passionfruit in there as well. This is a nice fragrance, and not too expensive. I recommend this for daytime, and early evening casual dates. I also think it would make a nice young lady's first perfume.

I love this just as I love the original n_n I am not sure whether it wears off too quickly or whether my nose just gets used to it but I love it. I find it very comforting and not too overpowering. I would buy again and probably would try any other Far Away fragrances that I haven't tried already :)

This is a real beauty by Avon - woody-fruity and long lasting, without the strong vanilla note. Some of my friends actually hated this, but it's their problem;) On me it smells just amazing and I wish they brought it back! So unlike its horrific coconut follower - Far Away Exotic...

It smells like peach and sandalwood on my skin. My husband always tells me I'm not old enough to use it. I like it but can't feel anything 'plus' in this EDP. As longlasting as original Far Away but not so intensive like that. Not bad. (:

Gentle tropic scent with musk- it is all season scent. It's a bit similar to its mama Far away(I adore it) but is has no of its character and power. Ideal scent for late vacation. It fades away in two- three hours.

For me, this was love at first spritz! It has remnants of Far Away Exotic but with way more tropical notes. It has great longevity on my skin. It was a blind buy that I am extremely happy about. I love it!

Have a bad allergy so the only perfume I can wear when I have allergy's or a cold is Far Away Dreams! I just love it & it doesn't irritate my nasal passages. LOVE THIS STUFF!!!!

I'm sure this has been re-badged as Far Away Exotic. I absolutely love it and the big bonus is that the new purple packaging is perfect for my bedroom colour scheme!

Definately recommend this,so nice ,one of my favorite scent.It smells creamy,clean, slightly musky on me.

An exotic holiday in a bottle. Wonderful. All warm and tropical not aquatic. Dreamy!

The Far Away-line is very close to my heart...not because they are popular in Europe and in the USA( not even in North-Europe, like Sweden), or wallet-friendly, but because they have really good smell and they are really nice fragrances! ..Ok, I'm a little biased, becuse the original Far Away was in the first fragrances I ever felt but nevertheless I really like them..without exception.:) All perfume from the Far Away range has a powdery softness, which is covers you in a warm and sensual cloud. You'll find this kind of softness in this perfume as well. Far Away Dream is exotic milky and furry at the same time.Thick and rich mixture of the luscious tropical fruits(peach, mango, coconut, pineapple)and shy florals like gardenia and hiding rose grounded by sweet amber and sensual sandalwood, spiced with a hint of vanilla.Well-blended,creamy, powdery and smooth composition with languid,peaceful aura. This perfume conjures up the sun-drenched tropical landscapes but I couldn't imagine myself to wear this fragrance in the summer. Far Away Dream like a fluffy fur coat-just warms me up and transports me to the sunny beach on those frosty Swedish winter mornings.:)

Far Away was a staple for women in my town back when I was a 90s kid. I had figured I would like it as an adult based on the raving reviews scattered online, but I bought a purse spray and immediately disliked it. The longevity was incredible, but the scent would hit me like a strong wave over and over. I had to give it away. I bought this blindly online, and I am much more pleased with this version. It's a bit lighter on my skin than the original Far Away. The box describes the notes as "a joyful dream of sunny peach, tropical mango, and lush florals unfolding to the soft sensuality of amber and creamy sandalwood". Amber and sandalwood in a perfume are a new concept to me (if you see my perfume list, you'll understand). So when I smelled both, I was like "what is this? smells pretty good!" and they transition well in the dry-down from the top fruity notes. The dry-down DOES remind me of shampoo or deodorant. But there's nothing wrong with that; it's a clean smell and I find it very pleasant.

My mom just got this yesterday...and SHE cannot stand "Far Away" and gave away her Far Away Paradise after one wearing. With this one, however, she bought the EDP, the perfumed skin softener AND the deodorant roll-on!! From the back of her box: "A joyful dream of sunny peach, tropical mango and lush florals unfolds to the soft sensuality of amber and creamy sandalwood." I, myself, preferred the discontinued (all too soon) Far Away Sensual Embrace to any of the other Far Aways but it IS a very nice perfume...fruity (but not too) with drier flowers and a subtle oriental dry down. Review to follow upon wearing it!

I really wanted to like this. I love the bottle, I love the name of it but could not find a thing in this parfume that I liked. I smelled my wrist for the whole day each 30 min to give a heart ad buttom notes a try. But didn`t work. I can imagine this parfume could be liked by very rigid, serious type of women - for a strict school teacher or scientist. A little bit philistine like and reminds the soviet time parfumes. Also, it did not evoke any emotions and memories. Too rigid, serious and boring for me.
