Perceive, released by Avon in 2000 and composed by Christopher Sheldrake, is sweet and floral in equal measure, with a strong woody side and spicy and musky touches. It is a soft, fruity floral with a creamy base.
It opens with yellow freesia, a light, fresh floral note, and white pepper, which adds a clean, subtle spice. The heart is fruity and floral: pear gives a juicy sweetness, Damask plum a deeper, jammy fruitiness, carnation a clove-like spice and ylang-ylang a creamy, exotic floral tone. The base is warm and smooth, with vanilla orchid for a soft sweetness, sandalwood and cedar for a woody structure, and musk for a clean finish.
Most wearers report moderate longevity and a moderate to intimate trail. It is voted for spring and summer and mostly for daytime, which makes it an easy choice for work, everyday wear and daytime outings.
