Fire Me Up
by Avon
Avon Fire Me Up is a bright, fruity, and sweet fragrance that evokes cheerful summer days with its juicy cherry and citrus base. It opens with a punch of blood orange and grapefruit, blending into a luscious, sticky cherry note, rich with a hint of violet and a faint drydown of amber and musk. The scent is linear and straightforward—nothing complex or layered—giving off a candy-like, playful quality reminiscent of gummy bears, fruit punch, or even bubblegum. While some appreciate its nostalgic charm and youthful energy, others find it overly sweet, synthetic, and cloying, with noticeable sillage that can be overwhelming. It performs best in warm weather and daily wear, though longevity is moderate, lasting around 4–6 hours. Despite its simplicity and weak longevity, it remains popular among fans of fruity gourmands who seek a fun, low-effort fragrance that brings joy and attention without subtlety.
