Flor Alegria

Love this! It's such a well balanced fragrance; not too sweet, not too floral, not too tropical. I think maybe Avon was trying to mimic Escada fragrances based on the bottle shape and colors. This does not have that chemical smell that some of Avon's other fragrances have. It is not strong and projection is weak but I don't mind re-spraying considering I purchased this on eBay for about $7. But honestly, it is similar to other scents that I have spent $40+ on. Once again, you don't have to spend an arm and a leg to get a great fragrance! I may try layering this with my other scents that contain some of these notes. I really enjoy this one but you know what that means - Avon will most likely discontinue it.

This sooo reminds me of that bottle of Clinique Happy that I have sitting over in the corner, only it doesn't have the staying power. I love the citrusy, perky vibe and I love the layering that Avon offers in the shower gel and lotion, but it still doesn't seem to last more than 1hr on me. It's not an expensive perfume but I'd rather pay a little more for something that held its own. I also think you get more bang for the buck with Avon products if you purchase from Ebay and all the cut-throat reps that sell there. I've gotten many a fantastic deal on products even with the buy-it-now and free shipping. If you don't mind reapplying frequently, go for it!

I got a sample vial of this, and I really like it. As another member said, it smells like it does in the book. It is definitely tropical and sweet. I can smell some citrus in it, possibly some mango, coconut. The rose comes in right away and almost gives it an illusion of very sweet, light musk underneath tropical fruits. I can almost detect strawberry. It also reminds me of pineapple Starburst from the tropical packs. Does not last more than 3 hours, it fades from my nose within an hour.

So fresh and pretty, the passionfruit is beautiful and this fragrance lasts a reasonable amount of time too. It has a tiny, tiny touch of fresh saltiness but overall is passionfruit and floral. Gorgeous.

I loved this when I first tried it, but as my tastes have changed over the last couple of years, it's a little too sweet for me now. I like the base fragrance, but the floral sweetness is a bit overpowering. It's a great summer fragrance, though, and I continue to wear it on occasion.

I think the problem with this fragrance for me is the passionfruit. It comes off very orange citrusy for some reason, but on the masculine side of that. I love iris and I love rose, but it really must be the passionfruit that keeps this from feeling like a "me" scent. It's not bad at all, I actually bought this from my aunt when she was selling Avon. Initially I thought I really liked it and was really into the bottle and the fabric rose (Very Irresistible Sensual EDP did this as well back when I was a Givenchy/Guerlain fragrance rep). But now, it's really just a meh scent to me. I'm up for a swap if anyone is interested. Sounds like it has its share of fans here on Fragantica!

Cheap & sweet fruity floral but I like it! The bottle is lovely. I like the floral petal thingie that can easily be worn as a scrunchie. Love the color scheme. This is nothing particularly special but it's as good for spring-summer season as can get. I live in Florida so I need these kind of fresh sweet fruity frags. At the first spritz I get tropical fruit flavors of mango, peach, passion fruit and apricot. Then I get the rose and iris florals scents. There are more notes playing in the musical performance of this perfume than the notes that are mentioned/listed. There's definitely vanilla and amber and some powder notes. This is very girly and sugary and like a fruit candy scent perhaps too girlish for some wearers but not for me. Matches up with a cute mini dress bikini or casual top and shorts. Good for after a shower and the body lotion with the same scent gives the fragrance a bit of a body. Doesn't last too long but it's ok.

Mmmm...tropical and fruity sweet rather than sugar sweet. The passionfruit is a delicious and unique choice when most bottles use plum. The rose elevates the smell from simple fruit-based spray. I can't detect the iris. Ladies who are into sweet should try this but I think it would smell best on early teens experimenting on frags. Not headache inducing. Affordable. If you like Britney Spears, Katy Perry or Rihanna type scents, this is an option. One spray on me Sillage: shorter than arm length Longevity: about 3-4 hours Rating: 3/5

Got this today from my most recent order! I must say, it is amazingly pretty. Its soft and girly. To me its not that tropical, it almost reminds me of Heat Rush-like that cherry ish type smell...i dunno I'm terrible for trying to pick out certain notes. This is lovely though. I would say that it goes best for summer, or warmer weather. It has that marc Jacobs vibe to it-the light floral scents if you know what I mean! I'm tellin ya Avon is way too over looked at for their perfumes. I've been so pleased with all of my purchases.

Mexican Actress Kate Del Castillo is the face of this launch, this being her second the first was Flor Violeta.....Flor Alegria is a Good summer fragrance..fruity&floral and it has a clean slightly soapy vibe to it a well, Perfect for Sunny Days! Also the Creator of this fragrance is Rodrigo Flores-Roux who also did Avon Instinct and has created for many other Designer Houses such as Britney Spears, Calvin Klein, Dolce&Gabbana, Tom Ford and so many more!

In New Zealand and Australia this perfume was released under the name "Only Delight" in the same series as "Only Imagine". I think Fragrantica should add this name as well.
