Description

  

Sweet Honesty was launched in 1973. It is a flirty floral fragrance that was a lot of girl's first fragrance. It's the perfect first but also a favorite to hold onto for years! A soft, kind of fresh/fluffy fragrance. Sort of like baby powder touched with flowers and sweetened by honey.

Sweet Honesty is still available.

This is the original cologne version of the fragrance.

 Avon Sweet Honesty Cologne Reviews

Fragrantica: "A soft, beautiful fragrance: floral and musky, sweet yet fresh, never cloying. It's quiet and comforting, but it has a bit of vitality and freshness I appreciate, maybe it is the hyacinth and cedar that jazz it up just a bit."

Fragrantica: "It was so sweet and lovely. Totally powdery, with a light and airy garden musk (I credit this for igniting my love of musk). It's silk pajamas on crisp flannel sheets in an April morning with the windows open...kind of in between cool and warm. Things are much more dynamic and "next level" now, but there's something to be said for the very classic/powdery scene of the past."

    Avon is a trailblazer company.

    I have no friggin idear who the creator of this fragrance was/is, and with that in mind, I will declare that any disparaging words about the Avon company, most surely are based on a compulsive kind of hollow pettiness because Avon are trailblazers, be they anonymous persons or not. Sweet Honesty was released to the public in 1973?? Seriously?!?! There was a point I remember - was it mid-2000s? Sorry if my timing is off! - when loukhoum, syrupy nuts, sticky Middle Eastern dessert style scents became all the rage. Examples of this exotic gourmand sub-genre(?) include Serge Lutens Rahat Loukhoum, Montale Sweet Oriental Dream, and Keiko Mecheri Loukhoum. Avon Sweet Honesty precedes all of them (and possibly more I don’t recall, LOL!!!!!!!!!!!) with an olfactive idea that was far ahead of its day!!!!!!!!!! Admittedly, I prefer the smell and mouthfeel of marzipan over powdery confectioners sugary loukhoum, but hey, to my mind, that’s like saying toe-may-toe, toe-mah-toe. *shrugs* :/ *dead silence, shrugs again* /:
