Little Red Dress

My signature scent <3 Love it so much! If I ever had a chance to create a fragrance this is the scent I'll go for! At first when sprayed the scent is sour and sweet at the same time. I can definitely recognize the citrus and a bit lighter and softer the raspberry and plum behind. After a good 15 minutes the scent becomes softer, it settle down and the fruits raspberry and plum become more noticeable, nicely accompanied with velvet red rose and fine jasmin.But! The fruits aren’t fresh, summery and fragrant, definitely not – imagine thick, aromatic and sickly sweet homemade raspberry & plum jam, with some seasoning added – for a stronger and sharper taste. This way the perfume stays on the skin for good 2-3 hours and after that you can feel the woody suspicion – amber and sandal tree make the scent warmer and now all of the sharpness is gone. The musk adds hint of freshness and the scent becomes lighter. On my skin LRD appears as fruity-sweet floral scent with woody suspicion.Excellent choice for everyday wear and my go-to scent on everyday bases and not only. I like wearing it during the autumn, winter and spring. It has excellent longevity (+12 hours) & sillage on me. I love it - I've used up so much bottles of it by now. Great perfume that I really love and I'll always have in stock.

One of the main reasons I ordered this fragrance is that it reminded me so much of Avon Natori which I used to wear a lot and loved so much. Looking at the notes they both share quite a bit in that regard. Created for Avon by Sonia Constant, Little Red Dress is a cheery raspberry, rose fragrance with a nice woody background layer. I think that this will be a lovely spring and summer fragrance when I'm in the mood for a bright, uplifting and feminine perfume. It's readily available and you won't break the bank to smell beautiful. Jan 2022 - We've been having some warm days here in southern CA and while going for a long walk in the neighborhood park yesterday, I passed a young Indian woman who was smiling and enjoying her walk and I smiled back and said hello. The sillage she left behind was of LRD or something identical. What a great smell, so bright and happy smelling. I have been on a vintage Avon kick lately, wearing some of my oldies but smelling her fragrance reminded me of my little bottle of LRD. I went home and showered after my walk and then wore it for my FOTD. If it smells half as good on me as it did on her I'd be thrilled. Glad to rediscover another one of the neglected bottles in my collection.

This was a blind buy for me and I'm pleasantly surprised. Finally, an Avon rose and jasmine that I can wear. It's bright and joyful and a wear anywhere, anytime kind of fragrance. It's definitely a floral, unmistakably so. Thankfully it's not heady, I know this because it doesn't give me a headache. On dry down, it's a perfect, natural rose. I don't get much of the citrus but there is a faint glow of warmth thanks to the amber and very subtle woods. I almost decided against it after the disappointment of my blind purchase of Little White Dress, my lesson is learned. I can't wait for the winter so I can brighten up the days with warmth and pass the time until I can open the windows again and let the summer back in. Edit: Ok, something has been bugging me about this perfume for a long time now. The purse spray and the regular bottle smell different to one another. Quite subtle but the purse spray is my favourite of the two and I'm not fussed about my later purchase of the bottle. Has anyone else noticed a difference?

I got this perfume in the post today. I was pretty much expecting a complete dupe of amor amor as so many people had voted it smelling similar, to my surprise (a good surprise) It didn't smell anything like amor amor to me. I like amor amor, but i like when a perfume has it's own scent and doesn't just copy another. Also amor amor is my sisters signature frangrance and i wouldn't like to have the same fragrance as her. to me, little red dress is lovely, spicy raspberry and rose, very sensual, smells expensive and i think portrays a sexy red dress very well. It's also got sweetness to make it slightly girly, but mostly it is a sexy scent. I think woman of all ages could wear this one, it is neither too old or too young smelling.

IMO, this is the best in the "Little ...Dress" collection by Avon. It's feminine, it's young, it's sweet, it's delicious! When I spray it on, 1st thing that comes to mind is: sugary red fruits. It's luscious. I don't know exactly what happens to it when it's on my skin, but it changes a bit...I have people everyday telling me how nice it is and "what are you wearing"...I tell them it's Avon, they all remain pleasantly surprised. I stays on my skin all day long, and on my clothes.. I usually don't like sweet scents, but this one, won my over. I go tru 4/5 bottles a year. I only buy them on promotion, which in my country happens every 3/4 months, when I get it with max 10 euros.

I haven't smelt Charlie Red for years - but this what this perfume reminds me of...not at first, when it smells of fruit, but a few minutes later....it takes me back to my teenage years. It's not sophisticated or elegant, but it has a sweet, comforting smell, probably good for winter and gloomy days. Ok...so, I actually went and smelt Charlie Red for the first time in about 20-odd years. LRD is a lot sweeter, but there's still a note or two in common which made me make the connection. And not just because they both have 'red' in their names :-)

i love this fragrance so much. i used to wear this since i was 14 by the time i couldn't find it anymore. don't know if it's discontinued or something. it's not teenage at all i would wear it still to this day. this is very nice for my nose unique spring summer fragrance. could be worn all year round but most suitable for warm day time weather. very nice rose fragrance. i generally don't like fruity nore floral fragrances but i love this one. very similar to estee lauder le rouge in my oppinion.

I bought this for another person but was curious what it smelt like so had a spray, and surprised it was so nice. Floral but with an oompf. Pleasant and uplifting. Same surprise I had when I tried on Perceive, as I was expecting something cheap, but discovered classy and uplifting. It might not be the company that Sonia Constant boasts about designing for, but it still should be a perfume she's proud of

I got it as a birthday present when it wasn't on the site or even on the internet. I wanted to find out exactly what kinds of notes it had because I liked it. Now I know why. It has raspberry in it but in a more sophisticated way than those sweet scents that everybody hates because they're for teens. Now I know my boyfriend knows me well (he got it for me). :)

Got given this for xmas & was so excited to try it as LBD is my evening scent. To me this scent is beautiful! Sweet rasberry and rose mixed with oriental/spicy it just works so well. Has quickly leap-frogged into my top 5 scents so much so I already have another bottle on order!

Smells like cherries to me idk why!! I love it I love it I love it! Smells sugary, fruity (cherries and rassperies) with a scent of musk which makes it clsssy ! Long lasting ,good strength ! The dry out smells AMAZING !! Wonderfully perfect :)

This smell like raspberry and rose incense! It's very sweet, in a sugary way, but I like it a lot, I'm feeling comforted and elegant when I wear it. Reminds me of Amor Amor, but it's not that strong.

Rodha: i think you will love this perfume. It's great quality for the price. You could also try little black dress and little white dress also from Avon, they are also really lovely.

I can't explain how much i love this perfume. It smells sooo good! Something about it hypnotises me, it's so yummy and sexy! I really feel i will never get bored of this one.

I think this is one i will have to try. I already love LBD AND LWD. I am interested to know if it does smell like amor amor, as i do like that fragrance.

It figures, the AVON scent that is not sold in the US ends up being one of my favorite AVON fragrances to date. It is not overly sweet but just right.

A lovely delicate sweet perfume. Not the usual 'Avon type' fragrance, smells quite classy. Fine to wear daily in the office as its non offensive.

I love it ! Smells like cherries to me lol.. a Very red scent ! I absolutely love it :) the sillage and lasting are good too

Really nice fragrance. A grown up fruity scent with the right amount of floral and musky notes. Would certainly buy again.

Love it. Sandal wood at it`s best among other avon perfumes. Very warm and pleasantly dry sweet. On my rebuy list.

The best perfume from Avon,in my modest opinion.

i like this one ... sweety & cheerful ,,,

Namewise, this would be more appropriate to be called 'little pink dress'... To me there is not much (or enough?) drama going on in this fragrance ( I associate drama and passion with red dress).This is maybe a red dress on a girl (not a woman). sorry about being mean. Scent-wise, I'm on the fence with this. I don't find it bad, it's even good for the price. It's alright, but occassionally feels as though something was off. Not sure about similarity with EL Rouge and flankers (not tested them), so I cannot quite compare this to those Actually, I picked this one for the dominant raspberry note. The evolution of this fragrance...initially it reminds me of a hibiscus fruit tea, sometimes it's like Chopard's Madness, with some undertone that I smelled before in Avon perfumes (bit musty, guess that's their sandalwood or something), then it turns slightly rhubarb-y with time, like Burberry's Brit Red (now discontinued). Actually a few hours later it all gets together and smells a very sweet raspberry/red berry jam. I kind of like at this stage (yet not sure if I want to push myself through the hours of confusion).

About this perfume now...i am torn because it is cheap and simple nothing exciting or complicated but on the other hand it serves it's purpose so so well...i mean it's an everyday simple/office non offencive perfume, you cannot overspray this (or so i think of course) and to me it smells like watery light sweetness ,not syrupy and not cloying at all, like flowers taken away in the stream of a river in the spring. It is definitely a young womans perfume,it brings to mind innocence and makes my mood better every time i spray it. This is not one of those statement perfumes that will divide the people to fans or haters is the one you wear to be pleasant and make everything around you happier and lighter :) So for what it is and how it makes me feel when i wear it i really like it! Finally, longevity very good!

This opens sweet, slightly gourmand, fruity and spudy (mixture of wood and spice). I advise an easy trigger finger with this one as it's quite a powerful fragrance, but worn correctly, this is one gorgeous, sexy perfume. I sprayed once in my cleavage and it lasted all day long without being too overpowering. The heart is very sweet, I can't identify individual notes, it's slightly synthetic, but it is what it is. There is a woody vibe, I get a faint rather addictive chocolate note and lots of juicy fruit. I must say that this perfume is sugar plum sweet, deliciously addictive, wonderful for evening wear as it may be a little heavy for office wear and very feminine. I love this, it has a place in my collection without a doubt, it smells far more expensive than it is and it doesn't scream 'Avon' at you.

This fragrance will forever be in my collection. This is the scent both me and my sister used to wear in High School. It reminds me of cold winter mornings, the two of us marching to school through the rain. Definitely more of a Autumn/Winter scent. Having said that, this is a very berry strong fragrance. It projects like crazy and I agree with previous comments comparing it to a raspberry incense. Definitely smells spicy and very syrupy sweet. It's a bit of a strong scent for me to wear nowadays, but I still love to wear it occasionally when I want to take a trip down memory lane. It lasts on me a really long time (8 hours+) and it lasts even longer on clothes.

I don't think this is sold in the U.S.; I ended up buying it on eBay from Europe. This is a beautiful scent; the sweetness of raspberries is kept from being sugar-sweet or tart in combination with the sandalwood. I kept sniffing this over and over, because the scent is so familiar. I searched through my bottles and discovered this smells just like Estee Lauder Pleasures Delight minus all the patchouli. My biggest gripe with Delight was the patchouli, so this is a nice alternate to the more expensive bottle. I also love the bottle; it's simple, but the cap is such a pretty shade of red.

its very warm fragrance. best for winters. more of plum scent in it and the wood and scandalwood notes. at first its very sharp to smell. if i smell it for few sec directly it gives me a headache. its strong and piercing. but after you spray it on it leaves a nice warm touch. its not fresh. neither green. it reminds me of my mother. she had one of these perfumes. it would be great for a formal night. or a date. and mostly seductive type touch. slightly powdery. but overall warm. i can not use it in summers at all. it makes me sick. but in winters its the best scent i want.

I bought it after good reviews here on Fragrantica ! But- I was expecting something different- more like a grown up scent , sweet but fresh and zesty, with woody drydown ! This perfume doesn't smell like Amor Amor at all , maybe a bit . This perfume smell like hmm Revlon Charlie range , something like lipstick or make up smell ! Btw , it is very very longlasting especially on clothes it stays for days ! I think smells like stronger version of Avon-Eternal Magic Enchanted :) Like it but there is nothing special in it... Like most of Avon perfumes ...

A man asked me what I was wearing in the gym. I was wearing this scent, this scent always bored me personally, but men seem to be drawn to it, it must be that plum and vanilla sweetness which seems to be a safe but allruing option. I liked the name of this scent, that is what initially drew me towards the fragrance, the fragrance itself was very boring and 'has been' for me, to safe and forgettable I wore this to the gym to use it up. Overall rating 3.5/10.

I've purchased this one I think 2 years ago as a blind buy.it was so cheap.All I get from this perfume is spice.it's very strong (I've used only half of the bottle) so I use it only at night.it could be overpowering so 3 to 4 sprays would be sufficient for the entire night.great for cold weather.overall it is a nice perfume but i dont think I will repurchase it,spicy scents are not my cup of tea

Rather pleasantly surprised by this one...expected a sickly sweet teen scent from the components (raspberry, red fruits and musk) but is a rather more sophisticated dry fruit scent, lasts nicely and dries down to a cosy warm oriental base. Still definately fruity, but not in your face and sickly as the rose takes some of the sugary tones away...an unexpected hit!

A "grown up", sophisticated fragrance which is a tad unusual (which is one of the things I like about it). I feel more confident simply for wearing it. Very feminine but not in a girlie way. I detect raspberry quite strongly but it's balanced by drier notes and spices so isn't too sweet. The bottle suits the scent and as a package has simple, effective style.

I like this scent a lot.. :) It's a delicate, romantic rose scent.. I smell raspberry the very first minutes but then a nice and lovely rose and sandalwood come out and make this perfume elegant and delicate.. Really like it.. I also use this as a night use, for going out with friends or my boyfriend.. The sillage and longevity are good on me too..

When i first spray it, woody notes were very strong and i was like " hmmm ooookkk :/ " but minutes later baaammmm floral and fruity notes appears... This is a nice perfume... Ok it doesnt smells like Nina but reminds expensive smell. When it dry to me smells a little bit like Sensuelle mixed with Infinite Moment also by Avon..Give it a try...!

An OK scent. I am sniffing it on my wrist again and again and I like it for what it is - sweet in a nice way, but predictable and kinda mediocre. I wouldn't feel comfortable enough wearing this out in public but I enjoy it around the house. Probably would also tolerate it on a lazy afternoon in the park on a spring/autumn day.

This was a blind buy for me and i can say "WOW"!!!...i'm not very good at blind buys, but this doesn't stop me to keep trying :-)....I was not a big fan at the beginning but after it settled on my skin, it became somewhere between sweet and fruity. Very elegant i can say.Once it's finished i will definitely re-buy it .

Really nice and sweet, smells almost like cupcakes! Unfortunately the lasting power and sillage suck, that's why I won't invest in a big bottle.

The 2017 version is pleasant, reasonable priced for the fragrance/body lotion/ shower gel set. Not particularly unique, but fresh and fun.

at first its kinda fruityand not special but after awhile it became really classy and elegant I like it but lasting power is average

There is something very sweet in this scent, however it's not bas at all if you're into this kind of scents.

Much, much better than I expected! Rosy raspberry sandalwood. Really like it.

I can smell the sandalwood, jasmine and citrus scents very clearly. It has an attractive scent. It's feminine and classy. I think it's good to wear in evenings and in late night parties. A really nice perfume.

I’ve had Little Red Dress for years, but it’s always hung out in the back corner of my little fragrance collection, so I decided to give it a proper wear test today. I was happy to do so, especially after I looked up the notes and discovered a raspberry-rose combo waiting for me (I had forgotten its note pyramid!). Besides, I’ve recently been wanting to find my perfect rose-forward fragrance .. Could the one for me be hiding in my stash already? This starts off as rich, dark fruits (a pretty even split of raspberry and plum) and very spicy, nose-tingling, sandalwood-rose, and it doesn’t evolve much more throughout the wear. My biggest gripe is just how heavy it is, especially for the first 3 hours or so. It is suffocating! This isn’t a Little Red Dress .. This is a billowing, 18th-century dress made from 50 yards of velvet. My perfect rose is much different than this .. more of a rosewater vibe, I think. This isn’t a bad fragrance, and if you like a thick rose with OOMPH, this could absolutely be for you .. but it’s just not for me.

A long while ago I was given a free purse spray. It was just after it was launched but I didn't use it till last week. At the beginning I really liked it, it was sweet and fruity. But after some time I found some disturbing notes in there. I didn't know what it was till I realised it has a raspberry note, the same I hated in Infinite Moment. Here it's a little bit softer and better balanced but adding to it this annoying "Avon's note" I cannot say I like it any more. Sniffed it once again to make sure I don't like and it's a "no" from me.

This is by far my favorite Avon fragrance. This has the rose raspberry accord that some designer perfumes such as miss Dior blooming bouquet, tresor midnight rose, because it’s you, and mon Paris have. The difference with this fragrance is that there is a sweet sandalwood that goes with the raspberry rose and it makes it really unique and beautiful. It’s so inexpensive it’s on sale for 12.99 right now. This is a must try for raspberry rose lovers.

I was so excited to smell it because LBD it's one of my favorites from Avon so I bought some samples.I tried to be understanding but I can't..I don't like it.It has that annoying sweet smell like Amor Amor which I also don't like.I don't find any note of the mentioned,it's just another "similar to the others" scent from Avon.The worst of the three.

From the first sniff this one smells like figs and roses jam on my skin. I can see someone liking it, but it's just not for me. This scent makes me feel like I'm at my grandmother's house in the village, standing in her bedroom, next to the sideboard with her perfumes and black and white retro photos.

At first its like raspberries smothered in cream - too much - I find it cloying and there's a dirtiness and spiciness to it that smells like cinnamon, although that's not listed.

a rosier amor amor.just love it.
