Little Black Dress Eau Fraiche

Watered down version of LBD, fresh and easy to wear. Like it !

It was almost a blind buy for me as I knew the smell from the catalogue page. I was looking for something fresh yet complicated to wear in summer. Since I'm addicted to perfumes owing such fragrances as Dior, JLo, Hugo Boss etc. I decided not to spend much for this wish. My choice was right, I like the smell a lot, although it doesn't last long on my skin at all, nearly after an hour my nose doesn't feel anything. Big BUT is that on the fabric it stays long enough (about 3 hours) and that's fine with me, as during this time I am surrounded by a cloud of freshness. I actually hear the rainforest, waterfalls and fresh flowers in it... Lovely and suitable both for both day and night.

I must say I love LBD, and the Eau Fraiche is just as lovely a smell only a little less potent. It lasts quite well on me and citrus and floral combination is a winner for a summers day wear. I tend to treat Eau Fraiches' as a 'freshener up' anyway and this has to be one of my favourites. If you want something more heady go for the normal LBD.

this is quite a nice fragrance. the citruses are not too fresh and there is a pleasant floral dry down. not particularly long lasting, but cheap as chips to buy. it's nice, but I have nicer citrus floral scents in my wardrobe, so I've given it to a friend.

I really wanted to love this. Love the top notes. Agree with previous comments. The musk is taking over. I want a version without the musk. I should have known better. Avon tends to overdo the musk and/or amber.

Not soooo fresh. At least it is not citrus, zesty, lemone. It was a disappointment at first, because I wanted a kind of elegante lemonde. It is more flowery, watery, bamboo-like creamy fresh.

To me this smells as though Avon Artistique Magnolia en Fleurs and Perceive Dew were combined, bringing out aquatic notes and lightening the richer fuller magnolia.

Generally, it is a really likeable scent but the name "Fraiche" is a bit misleading, as musk is the dominant note here and in my opinion musk is the opposite of freshness. It's a warm and cloying note, so definitely not a "fraiche" type of thing... However the combinantion of peony and other flowers with the citruses is really great and I'd love to get a version of this perfume without the musky basis. So - I want a flanker of a flanker!:)

The eau fraiche version is green, clean, fresh and crisp. It resembles Chanel Chance eau fraiche a lot, like 60% I would say. The Avon perfume is creamier and sweeter as comprated to Chanel. The fragrance is aquatic fresh, refreshing in the summer and spring seasons; it is also floral,I smell jasmine, jasmine, jasmine but a polite one! Nothing carnal in here. And yes indeed it is optimistic and uplifting, like the morning sunlight. Bottom line: this is a dupe for Chanel Chance eau fraiche and quite a good one!

Personally, I see no point in releasing such kind of fragrances. I mean, there are tons and tons of "Little dresses" in Avon. One black dress is enough (a true masterpiece by the way!) The other thing is, i dislike citrusy ones. All possible lemons, grapefruits and stuff - no thanks. I would have suggested this to be called with another name and another bottle. I deeply doubt for any decent longevity, most probably will place it between the Celebre, Pur Blanca and the rest of that class... :)

Too musky and quite not "fresh". At first reminded me of a granny scent. Now, after 2 years on the shelf, I think the gapefruit is a little more distinctive and thus a little more pleasant. As a whole I am not a fan of Avon.

Here i read the same old - GRANNY SCENT , old lady scent . Dig deeper peeps .. we are all getting old , shhheeesh . Anyway this scent is nice enough ...lemony , musky .. hint of rose. 6/10 .. moderate lasting

Reminds me of Chance Eau Fraiche when I smelled the Avon brochure page. Not sure if it's supposed to be a dupe of that.

Nothing special, but pleasent.
