Not So Rare As The Initial Offerings
I found this to be a very plummy sandalwood, lasting about 3 hours for me. It's very pleasant, sweet and comforting. What surprised me is that it's not like the other "Rare's" so to speak from the series. This Rare seems to be much more straightforward in its presentation while all of the others took you on a trip through a myriad of notes and their longevity was very good. I do wish that Avon had also kept the same type of bottle as the others in the series, instead of creating a new flacon. Putting them together looks odd and makes Rare Amethyst the odd one out. This perfume can be worn any season, tho, which does make it cost-effective. But it's just not up to the specialties the older Avon Rare perfumes had I believe. This Rare seems to apply to today's times of sweet fruity compositions on top of a woody base, and that's not rare at all. I can't even say a fruity concoction, because there aren't enough notes discernible to the nose.It's more acclimated for blending in with the sheep and doesn't make any waves at all. If you're a collector, even the bottle doesn't match and I have no idea if Avon plans on continuing with more of this bottle.
There are three notes listed: Sandalwood, Violet and Plum. It's simple. It's a well-blended perfume, unobtrusive and office-friendly. There's a bit of a sparkle in the initial spritz, which is uplifting. This season-less potion definitely is more innocent than others and can be worn by any age group. It's sweet tho, be careful in spraying.
