Far Away Beyond

Yuuuuck. I thought I’d love this- the notes look amazing on paper! But all I can smell is bergamot and pink pepper. I get faint whiffs of chocolate and vanilla in the background at odd intervals but it’s barely there. It also smells quite unisex-masculine. I hate masculine leaning vanillas so this is a no for me. Not blind buy safe!!

A bit sharp in the opening but i did not ever think an Avon fragrance could turn this complex, on me after a few h turns in to chocolate cigar , it is kinda sexy , night club ish

It opens with a sweet, warm vanilla that I liked at first, but after a while it gets a bit heavy. If you like strong sweet scents you’ll enjoy it, but for me it felt too much for daily use.

On my skin, this one took me on a full sensory journey… straight into my grandma’s pantry 😅 Instead of the promised golden amber and creamy vanilla, I got a bag of dried dill tucked away in her cupboard next to the flour. It’s loud, dry, and full of that dusty spice vibe. I tried it both on skin and fabric — same result. I can see how someone might find it rich or nostalgic, but on me it’s pure “vintage kitchen storage” energy. I’ll give it that — the longevity is incredible. Even the dill refuses to leave. 🌿

I can’t really pick out the notes individually, it smells very cohesive to me. To be honest, it feels a bit linear and simpler than what the listed notes might suggest. But it’s definitely not bad. I get a hint of cocoa, pear, and warm woods. It’s comforting and cozy, the kind of scent you just want to keep smelling.

I was not keen on the initial blast of this perfume. I found the chocolate came through first and then I was hit with pepper. But I found the pepper sharp and quite overwhelming. Luckily it settles fairly quickly and dries down into a soft, warm, spicy vanilla. It definitely has a masculine edge to it. At least for me. But not so much that it ruins it. (I don't like masculine scents). There's still that original far away undertone which luckily I've been a fan of since i was a little girl. Overall a nice flanker. Not my favourite of the far away flankers but one that I will definitely keep in use.

Strong, but linear, chocolate scent. Starts as gourmand feminine vanilla and light pepper and turns into a sour masculine chocolate. Very long lasting. As much as I loved the 'Ferrero Rocher' scent it evoked, the overwhelming masculine chocolate note that stays on and on and on, made it a not favorite of mine, sadly.

when first sprayed it comes on quite strong, i notice the pink pepper firstly but after it's had some time to sit on the skin/clothing - the cream and vanilla is the forefront with hints of the chocolate truffle. it's warm and enjoyable.

I love this scent for winter and autumn. It's very warm and sweet, with great longevity - I still smell it at the end of the workday, so ~8 hours. On me, the pear and vanilla dominate, and after the drydown it smells very much like Paris Corner Khair Confection.

AVALIADOS LEIGA Eu tenho e confesso que gosto muuuito. Ele tem um cheiro de capuccino (ao meu ver). Bem chocolatudo maduro. É doce, mas um doce maduro mesmo. Eu parei de usar por um tempo porque enjoei, mas fui ver esses dias e creio que tenha macerado, está com um cheiro diferente, bem mais gostoso. Recomendo.

Sharp, bitter, woody, almost like a cheap aftershave. I wish I got the pear, vanilla, chocolate, or anything sweet at all! I’m amazed that anyone finds this comparable to La belle, there’s nothing even remotely similar to my nose.

For me, It is the most beautiful avon fragrance. It is warm, sexy. Not overpowered at all. I loved the projection ass well

I blind bought a sampler bottle due to the positive reviews and the amazing scent profile. I was so intrigued by the pear, chocolate and vanilla. Unfortunately I'm finding it difficult to like. The pear stands out like a sour (or in this case sweet) thumb. It's pear with a bit of cocoa powder and vanilla sprinkled on it. Even in the dry down the pear doesn't want to leave the centre stage. She is screaming for attention with every whiff. The pear is also very sweet, slightly overcooked. It is not a bad perfume. It is more of a perfume for people, who love very fruity and sweet perfumes. I like some sweet perfumes, but I have a limit of how much sweetness I can take in a perfume before I become sick of it. I don't think that it smells cheap, I also don't think that it smells outdated. I also don't think that it smells so offensive that I would have to leave the room when someone wears it. I simply think that its not for me personally, but if you love a sweet, fruity perfume with a wintery chocolate and vanilla backdrop, then this will be perfect for you. It would be great for autumn and winter due to the chocolate and vanilla base. Imagine it like a warm, well cooked sweet pear with chocolate and vanilla sauce. But more pear than sauce.

it smells beautiful. The faraway dna is detectable, but this is still distinct and different from the first one. It's vanillic and woodsy, warm and cozy. the creamy cocoa/chocolatey hint gives it that sensual allure. It lasts long on the skin, I could smell it even 24 hours after the first application. I havent tried it on clothes yet. Will definitely up date as soon as I will wear it properly. so far a successfull blind buy!

Avon did this one well. A soft vanilla pear gourmand, I can't make out all the notes, and it's not as oomphy as La Belle, but definitely in the same genre so if you like one you will like the other. It is a bit more commercial aka. less distinctive pear or any note, more of a soft gourmand blend which is not too intense. But I do enjoy it a lot. Not overly sweet.

I love the vanilla-coffee-cacao duo very much and I had bought the 10mL mini version of this to try it. I like it!! I just do not enjoy that cheap bitterness that lingers after most of AVON's perfumes/scents. Overall, not too expensive in Turkey so I can get the original size if I keep enjoying it

I bought this in the travel size and wasn’t to keen on it in a Warmer climate, but I’ve revisited it today on an autumn day and find it actually a warm boozy vanilla almost male fragrance, in fact it has the sweetness you may be looking for in an over peppery male fragrance, try the sample sizes available you may be pleasantly surprised.

This one is my favourite from Far Away 😍 a smooth velvety gourmand just with enough powdered notes to keep it from being too sweet. Think of the softest frothiest cappuccino, or a cake that melts in your mouth....mmm yummy that's what this perfume is like!

I'm in love with this perfume. The first time I tried it, though, it seemed vintage and old-lady-like, I didn't like it at all. However, I decided to try it again a few times more and it blew my mind. It's an amazing blend of vainilla and wood, I've never smelt anything like this before. So far, it's the only far away flanker that I love (though I haven't tried much: splendoria, beyond the moon and the original far away). I recommend buying the travel size first and trying it in winter (it doesn't smell the same if it's too hot or humid).

This was a blind buy which I regret. There is nothing remarkable about this perfume. Generic, bland. Meh.

To me it seems I am wearing some sweet male perfume, it is nice, but not feminine, I think I will give it to my husband.

This is sharp and weak at the same time. At first it was just sharp and spicy, like there was black pepper in this. Then after a few minutes I can smell a stale cacao scent and within 5 minutes it is all gone. My skin eats this up in no time. My least favorite out of the Far away line.

If you take the 2 La Belle, edp and parfum, and mix them, you get something similar in style to Far Away Beyond. That is, a perfume that has both the juicy pear and vanilla of the first and the chocolate accords of the second. With a woody base creamy enough not to give it masculine vibes. The pink pepper gives it a sensual final touch. It's good.

Me lembrou o far away beyond, não tenho beyond, mas vi em uma revista. Acho q a nota de pera caramelizada lembro muito.

A qualidade desse perfume é indiscutível pelo preço que é cobrado. É uma delícia demais. Acho ele um pouco atalcado, como a maioria da linha Far aways, porém o amadeirado dele deixa tudo tão gostoso. Eu amo a pera nesse perfume porque traz uma refrescância. A fixação é INCRÍVEL e a projeção é muito boa. Gente, as vezes tá na promoção por 49 reais ou na Europa você encontra por 10 euros. VALE SUPER A PENA!

Someone in a review below described it as something akin to the "Ferrero Rocher" sweet smell, I'd say that he hit the nail on the head with that one. This is a very yummy and delicious deep and rich vanilla with some spices in it, I have quite a few fragrances in my collection but nothing smells like this, since I tried it in a store I fell in love and bought it with a great discount (14.99 Euros). I had the bright idea of wearing it in a summer evening (four days ago or so), the scent resisted the heat quite well, it stayed on me for 6 hours or so, after the first one it was very intimate but I'd say it's normal since with sweat and heat the alcohol evaporates much faster than usual, I'm pretty sure this will perform greatly in autumn and winter, which are the seasons this is best suited for. To my nose it is 100% unisex, there is no explicit "femininity" in it and some male targeted fragrances are way sweeter and obnoxious than this one (UltraMale I see you). Solid solid buy, like crazy solid buy.

The first impression, later only confirmed, is a bit masculine OUD, PATCHOULI and HONEY that strikes in Gucci by Gucci edp. and Gucci Guilty - although the notes are not listed in Far Away… It’s totally DIFFERENT from the other Far Away’s (i’ve tested all in the series) - it’s heavy & oriental, sharp… no sweetness or vanilla softness that are present in the classic Far Away. There is a LOT in it which is typical to men’s perfumes… Not my type…

It is my favorite Far Away flanker of all. I do not agree with the comment below stating that it resembles Zara Red Temptation, which is a dupe of Baccarat Rouge 540. IMO Far Away Beyond and Red Temptation are not related, so if you are not a fan BR540, you should be relieved. Performance improved since I got the bottle last year. Sillage got stronger (about 2 feet) and longevity, more than 8 hours on skin and much longer on hair and clothes. So please be cautious while spraying if you don't like strong scents. I would recommended it for cold and slightly warmer weather, but not for temps over 22 degrees Celsius, if you want it to last. I used it last year in temps over 25 Celsius and it dissipated within one hour.

I agree with the opinion that Far Away Beyond is very similar to Red Temptation Winter by Zara. The same vanilla, spicy and spicy atmosphere, only without the hint of burnt sugar and the hospital atmosphere. If Red Temptation Winter got rid of these characteristic notes, we would get Far Away Beyond, only Avon's perfumes have weaker parameters. They are not bad, but the Zarowy release is exceptionally good in this respect. Far Away Beyond also has a bit of a Nouveau Genre patchouli vibe from Yves Rocher. Although there is no patchouli here, the combination of cocoa and truffle gives the atmosphere of dry chocolate like Nouveau Genre. The cedar adds a bit of spiciness and makes this fragrance even slightly unisex. It is sweet, spicy, warm and woody. I don't really like the pear flavor, which is quite noticeable at the beginning. Over time, white flowers also emerge more strongly, turning the composition from unisex to a more feminine side. Although the composition has features in common with Nouveau Genre and Red Temptation Winter, which I love, Far Away Beyond did not captivate me that much. You can feel that it is worse than both of them, but for the price of about 4 pints it is quite a good scent. Probably one of the most interesting from the Far Away series. The parameters are quite good, as befits this series, although they are not as loud and long-lasting perfumes as the classic version. The scent lasted about 7 hours on the skin, and the projection was subdued, very average, but sufficient. One more association comes to mind when I smell this scent a little longer. It smells a bit like Ferrero Rocher chocolate. 7/10

I can call it as the most unisex Far Away flanker. It is a very rich fragrance which is a creamy, spicy vanilla. The sillage is enormous. If this is important for you, people will recognize your smell. Brands give us a comfort about the power of a perfume. That's why you may underestimate Avon, because of its affordable price. However, as it has been stated several times in the comment section, the FA Beyond is as legendary as many expensive designer and niche brands.
