Haiku Reflection

this is such an easy grab. clean, fresh, aquatic, inoffensive. i definitely agree with the hotel spa vibes. ranking the haiku’s i own - 1. OG Haiku 2. Haiku Reflection 3. Haiku Kyoto Flower all three are very clean, spa scents. they may be inexpensive, and i normally wouldn’t support Avon (my mom sold it in the 90’s, OG Haiku was one of my first perfumes in middle school), but this line is honestly just so good if you like freshies. i love fragrances that smell soapy, clean, spa-like, shampoo-y, etc. if you don’t - this line isn’t for you. longevity is decent, but, like most fragrances, lasts much longer when you spray on clothes. i spray on both my clothes and skin because i love how it mixes with my chemistry and dries down. this is a great value as well - i got it for 15 on eBay, and it’s definitely something i will use regularly and buy again once it’s used up. great for warm weather, but IMO you can get away with freshies year-round; where gourmands get too cloying for many in the heat, who doesn’t like smelling like a fresh shower? blind buy safe for clean scent lovers, especially considering the price.

I live in a hot and humid country and I gravitate towards this so much when I tested it at the Avon showroom -- I smelled it and instantly decided I would buy it. It is less than 10USD! It is the exact kind of beautiful aquatic I was looking for, now I can grab it so easily and so cheap! I work in a closed room setting as well, so I don't have to fear that this will be bad or offensive either. This will be my daily easy grab from now on, and I don't even feel guilty because of its great price. Of the 3 Haikus available (original and Kyoto flowers), this is great for your daily occasion, and if you feel a little stuffy, this is fresh, easy, but still feminine and clean.

mm ahh fancy hotel spa! how lovely. i broke my ankle/foot jumping off my roof the other day (long stupid story) and spent easter weekend in a hospital bed marinating in my own painkiller sweat and external catheter urine and now am back home in dirty clothes with no way to shower and am bedbound and i was able to bring this package to bed with me and i could like. cry. because it actually smells so nice and CLEAN and it is giving me something pleasant to experience while my crunchy little foot bones scream at me 24/7. will have to do further testing in more normal conditions but thank god for this one, man. wow

This is WONDERFUL. Since the mid-90s I have been looking for a perfume that smells like the discontinued line from Victoria's Secret called Moonlight Magic. Not the one by BBW. It had a lotion, gel, shower, and a wonderful long-lasting mist. It was a top seller for a long time at VS and then it was gone forever. I have periodically inquired with VS as to when they may bring it back bc it was SO perfect and none of the agents I talk to seem to even be old enough to remember it. This is the CLOSEST thing to Moonlight MAgic. Definitely buying backups. The longevity is great for an Avon perfume.

I'm a gourmand girl through and through, but when spring comes, I have a harder time stomaching stronger scents. This was a real cheapie, and I'm so glad I took a chance on it! It's a fresh, powdery aquatic with lots of airy freesia. I am finding lately that almost any perfume with freesia featured prominently is a win for me. It's nothing like Cool Water; that scent is great but it's a bit more "screechy" with a prominent synthetic melon note. Haiku Reflection is soft yet powdery. One of a kind in my collection. Of all the perfumes I own I've reached for this two out of the past 3 days.

I don't even know how to describe how incredible this is. So clean with a sweetness that doesn't smell like candy. I have worn the original Haiku for so many years, it was always my favorite perfume because it worked with so many other scents and was easy to wear. When this came out the OG was knocked to number 2 because this is perfection. The bottle perfectly represents what this smells like. Also Avon always has 2 for $25 sales on fragrance. If you like clean, fresh, just back from a relaxing spa day laying in the sun by the pool snacking on fruit you will love this!

A classic and a must have in my line up. Fresh, clean, but fruity with a slight musk. Love the aquatic vibes. Gives me fresh out of the shower and ready for work or to go out. Best Haiku perfume out of the collection. Last super long, and will get you noticed and compliments. And you can usually get it on sale for cheap. A staple in inexpensive perfumes that can pass for a fashion house perfume. If you like Versace bright crystal, you may like this. I used to wear it out dancing too, when I needed something affordable but long lasting and fresh.

Smelled this at an Avon display. I love it. Plan on purchasing soon , for spring. This is a aquatic watery floral scent ,which I enjoy. I reminds me a lot of aquatic florals that were popular in the 90s ( that I miss now). Similar to scents like BBW Freesia, Calgon Morning glory, BBW Seaspray Classic, and Jo Malone Pear and freesia.. I pick up a lot on the freesia flower and , citrus, aqua type scent. Well blended and great lasting power. very clean fresh smell. Great job Avon.

This is seriously my favorite of the whole haiku collection. It is so fresh and something I would wear all day every day. This is great for all seasons and I can be pretty sensitive to fragrances. I can 100% so with complete certainty that this perfume will never ever give me a headache. And that says a lot. I can get a headache from just about any fragrance if I wear it on a bad day. However, this perfume doesn’t do that. I LOVE IT !!!!!!

This was my first perfume. I started wearing this when I was in high school. I haven’t worn it in years and decided today was the day I would throw it on again. Honestly I had forgotten how much I love this perfume. It’s a clean scent and not overly strong. It’s mild enough you can smell it throughout the day but not so strong you get a headache. Definitely will be added into my rotation again this spring/summer.

Eternity aqua, light blue, l’eau d’issey....those beautiful aquatics add this to that list! It is so fresh and clean. If you enjoy blue perfumes you’ll love this. Easy to wear and isn’t overbearing. If you can find it now for a good price buy it!!! Then let me know lol I would love to get one of these again!!!

This brings me feelings of summer! Water, rain, ocean, and warmth. The freesia is blended with the watery/aquatic notes so well. BTW, I usually do not enjoy freesia as it is just too strong or something but it works here. I sprayed this last night and I can still smell this today!!!! I'm loving this!

This was a blind buy because I loved Haiku Kyoto Flower and I actually love this scent way more! I sprayed a tiny bit on the top of my hand to test it and I can still smell it after my shower. Very floral and woody. It’s a beautiful scent. I’m definitely hooked and will be repurchasing this!

Okay so I got this today from my Avon Gal! I wills at that I love Kyoto flower-smells so much like Dior Addict 2(personal favourite) so wAs excited to try this....and I’m so glad I got it!!! I find this very aquatic/fresh almost reminds me of Eternity Aqua from CK. Omg this is lovely!!!

This $15 bottle of perfume is literally my favorite scent right now. It's so light and mouth watering fresh. I spray it all over me and my pillows before going to bed. I fall asleep feeling and smelling like a princess. Will buy again and again.

This perfume smells like if the WindowsXP screen smelled like something. I get major frutiger aero, bubbles, clean pool vibes from this scent. Love it!

Smells straight fresh. Perfect for layering, I love to do it over fruity/tropical scents for a complex scent profile. Perfect for fresh, light wear.

This is my new favorite perfume. It is an amazing dupe for Light Blue. It lasts forever on me and makes me feel so clean.

it smells like if water smelled really good. love love love!

Haiku Reflection is not at all like the original Haiku except that is has the “Avon” undercurrent that I pink up in all Avon perfumes and that is just an olfactory observation and not a criticism because I like some Avon perfumes, including the original Haiku, Haiku Reflection, and Haiku Sacred. Firstly, I love the name “Haiku” and and I also like the Japanese styled packaging in the original and all flankers. It would be prettier if the lids were metallic instead of plastic, but at the price point, I consider it a creative bottle and lid. As far as scent, Haiku reflection is an aquatic dream. Very clean water notes and way more feminine than the 90s classic “Cool Water.” Haiku Reflection is in the same family as Cool Water but is less sharp, more feminine,!and has a touch of powder. It is more wearable in my opinion and does not scream, “Hey I was a teenager in the 90s and wanted to let you know I just took a shower!” Haha, but jokes aside. The original Haiku is a lily of the valley scent with citrus and something that reminds me of clover. Imagine someone practicing Zen not in Japan but in the greenest dewy and mossy Ireland scenery. The original Haiku is what I would describe as an earthy mossy green lily of the valley. I get none of those images with Haiku Refection. I imagine a serene blue lagoon and you can see your reflection in the pool. It is aquatic, a little salty and musky. I wish they still made the matching lotion. The good news is that it smells good with the Ultra Healing Jergen’s lotion or Suave Cherry Blossom lotion, which I always have on hand. Haiku reflection is a great chill out subtle musk. Totally inoffensive. If you want to be a sex kitten, look elsewhere. This is something to splash on after a shower and I MUST have this in the southern summer heat. But I do wear it in winter too. Office? Yes. Church? Yes. Cuddle time? Yes. Work out? Yes. Read a book? Yes. All seasons? Yes.
