  Best combination—it smells like a man, wood, leather, and whiskey from start to finish; the citrus is barely noticeable until an hour or more has passed. In my opinion, I like it, it’s easy to wear, and perfect for casual get-togethers with friends. The longevity isn’t great: about two hours on skin and around four on clothes. Considering the quality-to-price ratio, it’s not bad at all—it’s cheap and lets you wear it anytime.

  The opening is fantastic—it smells refined and expensive, with a realistic leather note like new shoes and a sweet, fresh amber. But after two hours, it falls apart: copper and a synthetic ambroxan kick in, reminiscent of Dior Sauvage but with a tropical Acapulco twist. A solid attempt by Avon; if the dry-down lasted four hours, it would be gold. I was strict with my dry-down evaluation because that’s what truly matters. Most Avon customers will get along well with this. It’s not the cheapest (around $25), but it’s definitely worth it.

  Initial impression: lime and pepper for 15 minutes, then a skin scent. At 30 minutes: vetiver and amber, no citrus, with a light pepper note. At two hours: the vetiver faded, leaving just amber and a very faint pepper. At three hours: only amber until four hours, always a skin scent. I overapplied it (20 sprays) and it still didn’t last. I didn’t detect whiskey or alcohol, and it doesn’t resemble Dior Sauvage. No ambroxan detected either. It’s pricey for what it offers. Black Suede Intense lasts longer, smells the same, and costs half as much. Poor value for money; I don’t recommend buying it blindly. Addendum: After using it several times, my opinion changed: with heavy application, I noticed the whiskey in the first two hours, along with lemon and vetiver, reminiscent of a drink with ginger ale. I prejudged it; I have to admit that. It adds a touch of elegance, though not overly elegant. I’m starting to like it. I recommend the body wash and body spray; the fragrance lasts 6–7 hours and the value is acceptable.

  I’m hoping I’ll like it; I ordered it after seeing it in the catalog. The scent seemed well-crafted; Avon’s fragrances tend to be polarizing—you either love them or hate them. Yves Cassar is a great perfumer, so I hope he doesn’t disappoint. It reminded me of Carlo Corinto, Pour Lui, or Very Irresistible. If I don’t end up loving it, at least I’ll wear it daily until I get used to it, since it’s already here and I’ll review the final result.

  I already tried it and yes, I really liked it. It reminds me of Carlo Corinto and Pour Lui by D&G. I detected lavender, patchouli, oak, and vetiver. It has a dry, sweet-spiced finish from the pepper, though without leather notes, which I sensed strongly. In short: rich, smells expensive and delicious. One small flaw: it’s not very potent; the projection is low and the trail is subtle. If applied lightly, it lasts longer on clothes.

  Old school, it smells like a grandfather going to buy bread at 6 AM, but upon drying it reveals a Zara True Leather-type leather, just kinder. Demand a discount when buying it.

  From Avon’s high-end line, this has brutal creaminess with ochre and masculine notes. The liquor seems dissolved in creamy amber toner notes; synthetic but very well executed. It’s the creamiest wood I’ve ever tried, and it lasts forever. I love that from afar it reminds me of shaving cream.

  From Avon’s premium line, this has an absolutely brutal creaminess. It’s an ocre masculine scent where the liquor seems dissolved in creamy tonal amber notes; those synthetic molecules feel great. It’s the best representation of creamy wood I’ve tried and it lasts forever. In some distant way, it reminds me of shaving cream, and I love that.

  A perfume I bought on sale at Avon and then turned into one of my most expensive. It has a citrus and caramelized opening, like lemon gummy candies. Then lavender emerges with something gourmand I can’t quite distinguish (chocolatey?). The spicy part (pepper) joins in with the lavender. The whole combo is pleasant. The patchouli is present and gives context of cola cut with lemon and spice. It lasts over 9 hours with moderate to high projection. Being sweet, spicy, and potent, it can be intrusive. Being linear and sharp, it becomes overwhelming. Close to the skin, you perceive the woody note, but not in the trail. What I don’t like is the dry down: that initial lemon combined with the patchouli feels acidic and rancid on my skin. This stage makes up 70% of the fragrance. At first, I liked it, but with use, I stopped liking it; I don’t dislike it, but I don’t feel comfortable anymore. CONCLUSION: Being a catalog item, it has great performance in longevity and projection, unusual for Avon. But it doesn’t convince me for two-thirds of the experience and its dry down. It’s not unpleasant, but I don’t think it’s worth buying blind.

  “Creamy sweet whisky.” Finally, this blind buy arrived and exceeded my expectations. Before, I bought Segno Success and was disappointed, but this one seemed acceptable. I say ‘acceptable’ because the price is high and it wouldn’t be on the list of bargains. Nevertheless, it’s a Mid-Range option to vary your gourmand arsenal. Scenarios: it’s sweet with good trail and projection. It projects moderately to heavily for about 2 hours and lasted 7 hours, which is more than acceptable. It stands out in night scenarios, bars, or pubs. It has refined wood, but the intensity of the opening and heart can be overwhelming in the office. It’s not for hot climates or daytime use. More for semi-formal wear and men over 30. On cold nights, it can be appreciated for the quality of the woody notes (very high-quality patchouli) and invite closeness, though in very hot summers it might become suffocating. It has its own identity and is a valid, distinct option. It wouldn’t be my first choice, but it will always be considered. Price in Argentina ranges from $25 to $35, better than some designers, especially reformulated linear fragrances from the 80s or 90s. Not the best, but undoubtedly among my top 20 gourmands. According to offers, I’ll buy it again. Scent: 7. Quality: 6. Longevity: 7. Projection: 7. Versatility: 4.

  Avon’s Segno is one of the best fragrances from this brand: a tasteful woody whiskey that reveals personality, made for the sophisticated man. It’s not a trendy scent, but it’s modern and charming—different from today’s norms yet following the fresh wood formula that gives it a pleasant character. It’s fantastic, holds its own against any designer proposal, and stands out. Highly recommended; buy it blind, you won’t regret it. Pity it seems discontinued and is no longer in the men’s catalog. Scent: 9.0. Projection: about 2 hours on average, maybe 3 at most. Longevity: 6 hours. Recommended.

  One of the few Avon perfumes worth picking up. It’s vintage-style with good performance. I bought it on promotion with a body wash and definitely liked it, but it’s not a youthful aroma. It smells like a gentleman, a mature man—say, over 35. I was fascinated by the opening: peppery with a well-marked whiskey note, and although it’s not listed, I definitely detect cinnamon. Seeing the vetiver note, you realize this isn’t that boring modern sweet perfume. It’s a masculine, old-man scent, alpha male type. It loses a bit of quality in the final dry-down after 4 hours, where a note appears that I don’t like. It’s the same one I get at the end of Bentley Intense for Men. I’m not sure what it is; I imagine it’s patchouli. If you can grab it on sale for under $20, it’s fine; above that, there are better options. But yes, I recommend it if it’s under that price.

  One of the few Avon perfumes I’m willing to put my money on. It’s somewhat vintage with good performance. I bought it on promotion along with a shower gel and liked it, but it’s not a youthful scent; it smells like a gentleman, a mature man, I’d say over 35. I was fascinated by the opening: peppery with a well-marked whisky and a cinnamon note that isn’t listed. Once you detect the vetiver, you know it won’t be a modern sweet scent. It’s a masculine, old-school, alpha-male type aroma. It loses quality in the dry down after 4 hours with a note I don’t like, just like in Bentley Intense. I imagine it’s patchouli. If you can get it on offer for under $20, it’s fine; above that, there are better options. But yes, I can recommend it if it’s under that price.

  Very similar to Black Suede Intense from the same brand. Maybe it’s a bit more refined and the whisky is more noticeable, but you can alternate them if your budget is tight, since the differences are small.

  I can’t believe it’s discontinued; luckily, I managed to get a bottle. Among men’s fragrances, its scent quality is far superior to others and reminds me of Black Suede Intense, but in terms of quality, Segno has no equal. It garners compliments, lasts long, feels noble, and has a serious character. You can detect woods, spices, boozy whisky, and vetiver. Excellent, highly recommended, and I repeat: worth considering. If it comes back, I’d buy it without a second thought. Great fragrance.

  Honestly, it doesn’t smell like a catalog fragrance; the longevity exceeds 7 hours and the quality competes with designer brands.

  Reviewing again: They sold this to me as a leather bomb with liquor, but I was wrong. It doesn’t smell like leather; it has a very high-quality vetiver base, rich liquor that smells like malt with roses, fresh Mediterranean lemon, a slight sweetness, and spiced woods. To be honest, I see myself wearing it in summer in my city on days that aren’t too hot, thanks to that sparkling lemon. It has a blue aura without being generic, leaning toward Terre d’Hermès with the vetiver-citrus combo. The boozy note adds complexity. Solid performance, even better on clothes. It doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it’s far from bad. Here in Zacatecas, it works well from spring to warm autumn. Blessings.

  The Segno line is one of Avon’s best for men. This isn’t an exception: it’s good, though not groundbreaking. It’s a classic, old-school scent. The whisky, leather, and pepper give it that masculine vibe. The longevity is acceptable for the price. Honestly, I wouldn’t wear it; it feels too mature. If you’re under thirty, go for the Success version instead—it’s definitely the best in the line.

  I love that the cap comes with an atomizer, but this Segno feels elegant, woody, and formal; it almost smells like lemon between leather and whisky.
