It’s a spicy scent that reminds me of sunny afternoons—exactly the time I usually wear it. It’s not bad, but once it runs out, I won’t be buying it again. It’s a lovely experience, but it doesn’t appeal to me enough to keep it permanently in my collection.
I’m young, and this perfume isn’t for me. It’s for people 35 and up, truly mature individuals.
I’m young, and this isn’t for me. It’s more suited for people in their mid-30s and up, for those who are truly mature.
When you think of Avon, you automatically picture old-fashioned door-to-door sales or a thousand-page catalog with products for everyone. Mesmerize for Men changes that perception of the brand because it’s a mature, serious fragrance that offers a lot for the price. It’s a well-constructed scent with widely satisfying longevity, where fruity notes blend with subtly sweet and spicy accents to create warm, sensual vibes—perfect for days that are still cool or crisp. It’s absolutely worth it. Surprisingly good.
You think of Avon and immediately picture door-to-door salespeople or a massive catalog for everyone. Mesmerize for men changes that image: it’s a serious, adult fragrance that offers a lot for its price. It’s well-constructed with decent performance. The fruity notes blend with sweet and spicy touches, creating warm and sensual sensations, perfect for this cold weather. Totally worth it. Surprising.
Magnificent.
My boyfriend wore this when I was a teenager; it smells great and has a good price point.
At first, it smells citrusy, but that lasts only seconds before giving way to creamy myrrh and warm spices, all wrapped in wood and a soft sweetness that reveals the perfume’s stages. All this for around $10. It’s for men over 30, a serious aroma that evokes elegance, the complete opposite of what a teenager would want. The slight resemblance to Chanel Allure comes from the myrrh, though I admit Chanel is more refined and harmonious.
It’s not citrusy; the citrus fades in seconds, giving way to a creamy myrrh with warm spices, all wrapped in wood and a soft sweetness that showcases the evolving stages of a high-level fragrance. And all this for around $10. It’s perfect for men over 30—serious, elegant, and tasteful, just the opposite of what a ‘chavita’ is looking for. The slight resemblance to Chanel Allure comes from the spiced myrrh, but I’ll admit Chanel is much more refined and harmonious.
It sounds like a cross between Jaipur and Le Male. It smells like incense and vanilla, even though they’re not listed. More than citrus, I’d describe it as oriental. If scents were times of day, Mesmerize would be sunset. I feel it’s more adult than youthful and more semi-formal than casual. I think it looks much better on cold days.

It’s one of the few good Avon perfumes I’ve tried. Medium longevity, very original scent, cheap, and modern style. I have to spray several shots on my skin (and clothes) to make it last. I recommend it 100%.

I agree with raymar05; this is one of the best fragrances I’ve had the pleasure of knowing. My boyfriend makes me fall in love with it—it’s delicious!

The best Avon perfume has a rare, contemporary adult scent, though it suits people starting from age 25. It has a base between bergamot and tangerine, classified as an oriental woody fragrance. It’s good, affordable, and in my opinion, the best option from Avon.
