Prima Noir
by Avon
Prima Noir is a rich, warm vanilla fragrance with prominent floral and powdery accords, featuring violet, jasmine, and black vanilla husk. It is widely regarded as an elegant, cozy, and slightly sultry scent, ideal for cool weather and evening wear. The sweetness is present but well-integrated, with a delicate powdery and musky drydown that avoids cloying or overwhelming notes. Many users describe it as comforting and comforting, likening it to classic-style gourmands with a timeless, mature quality. It performs better on skin than on clothing and shows increased longevity in some cases when allowed to age. The scent is versatile enough to be worn on special occasions and even as a night fragrance, though some find it heavier than expected for daytime or summer use.
