    Been searching for this fragrance for ages; does anyone know what it smells like? I have so many lovely memories with it.

  2. Citrusy and fresh, it smells like just washed. It doesn’t project much but lasts well. For the Avon price, I highly recommend it 👍🏻

    Smells clean and citrusy, very good value for money. It doesn’t last long, only about 1-2 hours, but it’s worth it for the price.

  4. A fresh herbal scent. It opens citrusy and mentholated with a touch of ginger and musk. This blend gives intense freshness and a slight aromatic sweetness. The floral notes are barely noticeable, just a hint of lavender, and the woody notes don’t stand out either. It feels linear, fresh and sweet all the time. On my skin it lasts about 5 hours if I use 18-20 sprays on skin and 4 on clothes. It projects well for the first hour, at arm’s length. After two hours it drops to 20cm but the trail remains. From the third hour it’s just a personal bubble; the trail fades and sometimes by the fourth I can’t smell it at all, only catching it when I move. On clothes it lasts over 24 hours. You have to be generous, but for what it costs it’s good: it’s affordable and nice (30-35 soles or 7-8 dollars). Highly recommended. Ideal for summer, beach, spring or autumn; in winter it refreshes but it’s not its season. Very versatile, from an 18-year-old boy to a 50-year-old adult can wear it. Perfect as a signature scent, after a shower or for casual outings: studying, with friends, shopping or walking on hot days. Just needs reapplying, but it’s worth it. It’s a real gem from Avon.

  5. For 6 dollars it’s excellent. Good for the heat, ideal after a shower. As it doesn’t last long, it’s perfect as a base to put another perfume over later.

    This lotion is very fresh, smells like just showered with talc on the feet, clean and powdery. It’s a good lotion, I use it post-gym to feel fresh and freshly washed. It’s delicious for hot days. The only thing is the scent doesn’t last long, but the price justifies it completely.

  7. I find it a pleasant aroma, but its longevity is scarce, about 3 hours, and the intensity is low; few people notice it. It’s very fresh, gives a youthful feel, ideal for the gym or casual use, nothing formal. Its accessible price explains why the scent is simple.

    Of all the few fragrances I’ve tried, this is one of my favourites. Its lavender scent is sublime; I have a sealed one and don’t know when to open it for fear it will run out. I hope they bring it back as it’s wonderful. It suits those over 20, I recommend it without doubt.

  9. Very good fragrance for the price (5-7 dollars). Fresh and clean. I tried Kaiak Classic, it’s very similar to this Musk Marine from Avon, although the latter is a bit better in performance and cheaper. However, neither really stands out.

  10. I tested it on my uncle who already owned it, and we did a joint unboxing together, haha. The opening is super clean; without even reading the notes, I suspected lavender and citrus, and I was confirmed right here. Plus, the scent feels great. Projection is good for the first hour. Just as another reviewer said, I see it as ideal for after a shower, in hot weather, or for heading to the gym. It’s still available in the catalogue in Argentina.

  11. For the price, it’s a beast. I absolutely love it and it lasts about six hours without fail. What a pity I think they’ve discontinued it, because at that cost it smells and performs like luxury.

    Excellent scent. I bought it because a work colleague had it. It has very good longevity, price, and quality.

  15. I wasn’t expecting much for the price, but I’ve liked it. Fresh scent with a clean smell, slightly powdery; it reminds me of Natura’s Kaiak Aero, though this one is more potent. It’s a good cologne, perfect after a shower or for heading to the gym. Notes of mint and lavender, very masculine.

    A very good fragrance. I bought it and it reminds me of the classic Polo Sport, just less intense. Longevity is good; for the price, it seems like a gem. Fresh and clean aroma, slightly powdery. I recommend it for staying at home or going to a meeting.

    A very good fragrance. I bought it and it resembles the classic Polo Sport, but less intense. Longevity is correct, and for the price, it seems like a great option. Smells fresh and clean, with a powdery touch. I recommend it if you’re at home or going to an informal meeting.

  19. It’s a fragrance that smells super clean and fresh on the first spray, as if you’ve just come out of the shower. Ideal after a bath because it projects that total cleanliness sensation or to boost your own image of tidiness. Upon application, you initially note a slightly synthetic musk, but in five minutes it evolves into something fresh and natural with mint, lavender, and musk, all mixed very well with geranium, violet, and wood. It’s worth it; projection is good and it lasts between four and five hours with three or four sprays.
