mark Sassy

I use this often as it has a very clean fresh appeal. Clean or masculine scents seem to cut through cold winter air better than my most loved floral scents. My kids related it to clean laundry room aroma. It does have kind of a metallic note to it. It has a slight floral twist that still makes it feminine. Yet unfortunately another discounted favorite for me. I miss the Mark brand. [I'm a fan of collecting perfume, not a perfume connoisseur. I love sweet, citrusy, floral scents best. Some expensive scents give me headaches or rashes. My kids give me the most honest opinions on smells and I will share my honest opinion. In search of something with longer sillage comparable to favorites. Recommendations welcome.]

Here are the notes listed in the mark. magalog: top: sparkling black currants, peach skin heart: yellow jasmine, may rose base: warm musk THIS is one of my Mother's favorite perfumes. It is softly sweet and tartly fruity with a wonderful blend of flowers in the heart, and dries musky but not strong, or animalic. This comes in a 50 ml. "fragrance mist" (shown above with the cute lacey garter on the cap) and a 95 ml. dry oil spray (rectangular pink bottle with black cap)...

One of my few favorite Avon fragrances. Very peachy, balmy, musky, and soft. Ever so slightly powdery and a little bit sweet in the head notes. It wears close to the skin with not a lot of projection. Longevity is a bit above average at around 6 hours. Comfort and casual with class is how I view this perfume. Non-offensive and reasonably priced as well. Suitable for the office, daytime, or weekend/casual outing.

My mom gifted me a bottle of this one when I was in high school. For ever one of my favorite scents, it is engraved in my memory and I feel very nostalgic when I think about it. I wish I could find something that smells similar or close to this but I am still in no luck. Such a feminine and classy fragance.

For those of you who were disappointed in the EDT spray version of this now-discontinued scent..... you should have tried the Dry Oil Mist! You would likely change your mind! Smells fabulous, makes your skin silky and lasts! Too bad it's getting very hard to find and if you do, you'll pay triple the original price. It has a following, trust me.

I bought this to support a friend that was selling Mark years ago. I like that it was very subtle. Good for times you don't need the whole room filled with you or going on an airplane. Too bad it was discontinued. My original bottle is almost out.

I bought this one as it was on sale, but I do not care for it. It is not what I expected at all. Upon first spray, it was like, huh, where is the smell? The fragrance is just weak to me from the start, and then it dries down to a kind of dollar store generic scent. I am sure on someone else this may smell nice to me, but with my chemistry it is not nice at all. I sprayed it on the tops of my hands so I could wash it off if I did not like it, and it took many washes and all all day to get completely rid of the smell. Why cannot the great fragrances make perfumes that work this well? ;-)

Perfumes smell different to everyone, and to me this is disgusting. It smells like old lady perfume gone bad. Just awful. I got rid of it.

From what I remember this was an utter disappointment. The scent is almost non-existent!! It's toooo soft and light of a fragrance where you need to have your nose practically on top of your arm to smell anything. Longevity is very poor, From what little I could smell of it, there is a musky floral scent to Mark Sassy. What kind of floral to be exact?? I really don't know. If only the scent was more intense. This one reminds me of a watered down body spray.

Agree with much of what STARMAGIX expressed. I sprayed once, twice, more, and kept asking myself, "Where did scent go?" It must be my chemistry or NOSE because when I snuggled my grand baby against my shoulder/neck, she came away smelling of a very soft floral and barely musky. I'd pass it on to her, but musk on a 6 month old? Not Yet! It smelled very nice when vendor spritz some into bottle cap. What happened?

I really smell the peach skin in this. I think it's great . Casual and easy to wear. I believe it wears very close to the skin . It doesn't last long either. For those reasons , I was disappointed. More projection and longevity and I would have loved it. Because the scent is so nice.
