I don't know how they do it. There is not any fruit listed in the notes, and my bottle of lotion gives the same notes as above "wild rose, cedar wood, crushed ginger & amber". When I apply Persimmon Plum I smell plums, fresh, sweet, juicy plums. I do not get rose or ginger but maybe those combine somehow to make a plum scent? I don't get persimmon either but it may be buried under the plum and I just can't pick it out. The amber and cedar work nicely in the background to warm this up slightly. This is not a candy type sweet but a fruity sweet.

I tried the roll-on at the store and although nice it just didn't pack the punch I wanted as a perfume. I decided to go with the lotion instead as it is very nice, thick and richly scented, to use under some of my favorite plum based body mists from other brands.

Overall, this is a nice, linear, plum scent that stays close to the skin, lasting about 2 to 3 hours on me.

My bottle says it has 'extracts of natural aloe, jojoba, asain sandalwood and peony petals', however what I smell when I spray Green Tea Therapy is a mix of sweet fruits (melon being the only one I can pick out), light mint and faint green tea. I do not find it a green scent and the mint makes it only a touch herbal. I would call it an fresh fruity aquatic.

The bottle also indicates the scent is for 'Balance' which I get, as the mint is a bit too fresh for a true relaxation scent but not strong enough for an energizing scent. That said I find it a sweet, comforting scent to help me unwind after a hard day. The throw is decent for a body mist at a few inches, and lasting power good also for a mist at about 2+ hours.

Avon has a few great scents and I think the Today, Tomorrow, and Always collection were all wonderful, however Tomorrow is my personal favorite being a oriental lover. Seams much higher quality then the normal Avon scents.

Tomorrow is very patchouli heavy on me, with woods and spices also very noticeable. I also get a smoky note in this, like I've been near a campfire. The fruits only last the first few minutes, and the floral stay very light, I get a touch of powderyness poking thru now and then.

With great sillage and longevity (about 6 to 8 hours on me), I still feel able to wear this any time of the day and in all but the hottest summer months.

Satin Sheets is a very simple, linear scent. Just sandalwood and vanilla are listed but somehow this gem gets me the most compliments from both men & women. It seems to scream SEX, my husband literally does a little growl when I wear it and he rarely notices what I wear.

Sillage goes from a foot to a few inches and the solid lasts a good 4 to 5 hours, the mist only a 1 to 2 hours. I have no problems wearing this year round and any time of the day or night

Warning, Scentsy solid sticks only last about a year before starting to smell like chap stick wax but they are so inexpensive (and huge) that you can wear very liberally.

I don't know if those outside the US know what the original Irish Spring bar soap smells like but it is a very strong, fresh scent, Simple Irresistible smells very similar to me. A bit too strong, mossy and 'manly' for me personally. Stays linear. Throw is great, lasting power is 2 to 3 hours.
