    Chai, rose, and musk combined. *bangs head on desk* Why is it that MLM companies always come up with scents that the suggestion of make me drool?

      Chai + rose does sound really nice, I admit!

    The Avon one does sound like it could be good and I think the bottle is very attractive too! What can I say, I have a thing for tassels and I’m a fan of the color orange.

      It is pretty! But don’t love the cap. It’s always the cap :-)

        My thought exactly! I’m horribly attracted to the bottle, and the juice sounds pretty good too- but that cap was a big mistake. Avon should just go back to their cutesy collector bottles. I’ve got some real doozies! My favorite: Kitten Petite (late 60s or 70s), filled with the horrific, possibly cytotoxic Sonnet. The ball of yarn holds the perfume, and the cap is actually said kitten petite, and you unscrew it to get to the juice (splash only, of course, wouldn’t want to apply judiciously or anything).

        The cap isn’t turning me off or anything. But I seriously doubt I’ll sniff this at any point anyway. I mean, are there still Avon reps making housecalls?! I guess in this day & age you can order online now though. Carrie – that Kitteh bottle sounds too adorable!

          And I think many people sell Avon at their offices.

        The cap is the symbol of yin and yang. Avon meets Taoism.

    Any word on the longevity/sillage of either? In my experience, Both VS and Avon have some wonderful fragrances that are all too short lived on my skin. Both sound as though they would be good spring/summer fragrances.
