    What a shame they stopped selling it; it was a true olfactory jewel. My grandmother always wore it, and it brings back precious memories.

  2. My mum bought it a couple of times, and her Avon saleswoman always wore it herself; what a beauty.

  3. I adored it; so elegant and feminine. I still remember that musky coconut scent. What a pity they discontinued it.
