   For a 2011 release, Summer White deserves more attention than it gets. That first spray gives a lovely Aldehydes/Grapefruit impression that dries down smoothly. The opening is built around Aldehydes and Grapefruit — bright and immediately recognizable. It wears beautifully in the office; I can still catch it on my scarf at the end of the day. Sadly this one does not work on my skin.

   I picked up Summer White (2011) mostly on a whim, and it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. That first spray gives a lovely Aldehydes/Grapefruit impression that dries down smoothly. Right away I get mostly Aldehydes alongside Grapefruit, fresh and very easy to wear. It is not the loudest scent I own, but the balance suits it well. Well done — recommended if the notes appeal to you.

   I’ve been wearing Summer White on and off for a few weeks now (2011). The heart is the best part for me: Jasmine and Lily-of-the-Valley feel carefully balanced. The very first sniff is crisp Aldehydes with Grapefruit peeking through, very much my kind of start. Performance is consistent: comfortable sillage and several hours of wear on my skin. A very likeable composition that is easy to appreciate.

   A decant of Summer White sat in my box for weeks before I finally wore it. The first minutes are all about Aldehydes with a hint of Grapefruit — it grabs attention without being pushy. The very first sniff is crisp Aldehydes with Grapefruit peeking through, very much my kind of start. Projection stays close for the first hour, then becomes a soft, pleasant aura. A very likeable composition that is easy to appreciate.

   I have owned Summer White for a while now and my opinion has only gotten stronger. As it settles, Musk and Sandalwood come through and give it real depth.

A solid addition for anyone who enjoys this style.

   A friend passed me a decant of Summer White (2011) and I wasn’t prepared for it. Right away I get mostly Aldehydes alongside Grapefruit, fresh and very easy to wear. As it settles, Musk and Sandalwood come through and give it real depth. Three sprays last me most of the day without ever becoming cloying. A very likeable composition that is easy to appreciate.

   A decant of Summer White sat in my box for weeks before I finally wore it. The drydown leans on Musk plus Sandalwood and that is exactly where it feels most comfortable.

I can see its quality, but it simply is not my style.

   I needed a full wearing before I made my mind up about Summer White. The first minutes are all about Aldehydes with a hint of Grapefruit — it grabs attention without being pushy. As it settles, Musk and Sandalwood come through and give it real depth. It lasts through a full workday on me, which is exactly what I want. Easily one of my favourite finds this season.

    I picked up Summer White (2011) mostly on a whim, and it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Give it a little time and Jasmine with Lily-of-the-Valley comes forward — smooth and well done. The heart is the best part for me: Jasmine and Lily-of-the-Valley feel carefully balanced. I get about four to six hours before it turns into a skin scent. Well done — recommended if the notes appeal to you.

Right away I get mostly Aldehydes alongside Grapefruit, fresh and very easy to wear. The drydown lingers pleasantly, and I do not need to reapply at lunch.

    A decant of Summer White sat in my box for weeks before I finally wore it. The very first sniff is crisp Aldehydes with Grapefruit peeking through, very much my kind of start. The base rests on Musk and Sandalwood — warm, grounded and easy to live with. Three sprays last me most of the day without ever becoming cloying. A very likeable composition that is easy to appreciate.

    Avon knows how to compose, and Summer White (2011) is proof. As it settles, Musk and Sandalwood come through and give it real depth. The drydown leans on Musk plus Sandalwood and that is exactly where it feels most comfortable. The trail is there if someone steps close, not across the room. Well done — recommended if the notes appeal to you.
