Shine Avon for women

I got this one because someone hated it and gave it to me, I tried it, It wasn't so bad, I use it when I get a shower, to be at home, normal day wear, I also use it because it triggers something in me about my childhood, it smells familiar to me and I dont quite know what it is.

Amazing how opinions vary so greatly! I loved this perfume. It blended well with my chemistry and I received many compliments. It was my Summertime signature.

Lemon Pledge furniture Polish. Hated this one.

Now I'm going to describe my first impression: I find it very similar to Miss Dior Cherie L'eau. When I get my bottle of this one I will describe it in detail.s However, I really like it

Simple citrus - like a cleaning essence. Not my thing.

I'm on the side where this fragrance is not working well with my skin chemistry. The opening is a weird citrus smell. It's a bit soapy but not sweet like soapy scents usually are. This one is sour. I have tried Tendre Jasmin by Yves Rocher and now testing Shine by Avon I find that jasmine is not working very well with the citruses.

I was really hoping I'd like this one because of the citrus. After reading the reviews here, I think it's one of those scents that either works with your skin chemistry or not. For me, it's a not. It smells lemony, but in an off way, like detergent or medicine or air freshener.

I also get this vibe from Shine. It reminds me of the days of my childhood and youth, especially those summers when I went to the beach in the Mediterranean. It's not what I would call a "mature" scent, but it's very uplifting. It's not very complex either, but we shouldn't forget this is one of Avon's affordable fragrances. I remember when it was introduced in Spain, not surprisingly one month before Mother's Day (maybe it was released at the same time worldwide). I remember having thought it was a wonderful idea: a nice but affordable perfume that children could easily buy for their mothers. Of course it's not the typical scent we Fragranticans would choose as our signature, but fresh, beautiful and uplifting in its own, uncomplicated way.

i love love love this perfume..can't describe it..i wear it almost everyday when i'm in high school..i running out of it but still have 1 drop left in the bottle..love to smell this when i'm in bad mood..it bring me back to high school which have so many good memories :)

I know that it was discontinıed but you can try the yellow one from make me serie by avon. they are very alike IMO.

Please, please i need that perfume...I like it so much and so sad cause i can t find it. Help me please

It smells so bad on my skin, too hot like the sunray on the late morning in summer. Citrus mixed with Jasmine sometimes smell like toxic spray.

awfull smell i don't like it at all, it smells like dust on me

Why does Avon always discontinue my favourites?! Loved this, I'm not normally one for citrusy scents as they invariably seem to be dominated by grapefruit, which I dislike intensely. This, however, is deliciously orangey on me - I've searched a long time for a truly 'orangey' perfume and this is it! It's very lasting and deep on me, just gorgeous. Have to get it on ebay these days, bring it back Avon!

I like this a lot.The musky notes are very pleasant.Last Summer I used it every day.I like the bottle as well, especially the bottle lid.

No Brasil chama-se Life é um floral com um fundo bem musk e energético ideal pra dias quentes !!

too citrus and simple.i don't like it.

The fisrt i spray in my body, it smells good, but i dont like the dry down, smell a kind of medicine

according 2 me!!
its the best fragrance in avon i like it, fresh, unique and 4 only cute girls;)

smells good but not the one to wear everyday because its not unique

Nice sunshiny bottle, wanted it first cause I like citrus in summer once in a while. So tested, sorry to say it does smell awfull.
First only citrus than turn to fuel on my skin and daugther's too.
I agree takemyhusband. Such a pitty. Always have had few of Avon in my collection.
I thought of fresh, would have take it, but turns wrong on my skin.

I have to disagree with the negative reviews on this one. I think it's a nice citrus fragrance without the sickly sweetness that many fruity fragrances have. Nice and fresh. I also detect vanilla in the dry-down. Great for the price.

You can mix it with spicy scents. (i did so and my winter perfume which i didn't like very much-diesel green-became a delicious spring perfume.)

all i can say is ewww lemon detergent :(

Wow, Avon perfumes have gone way down hill in my opinion. I'm by no means a brand snob, but this new fragrance is simply cheap smelling. Shine is very synthetic and has a strange metallic lemony note which from a distance smells like lemony juicy fruit gum or some type of lemon scented cleanser. Not my cup of tea at all.
