Ordered and Received the new release of this after finding the brochure sample quite lovely. For whatever reason the actual fragrance is screechy linear and thankfully fleeting
Big disappointment.

Update:Received a vintage bottle via eBay and I am overjoyed! I unsealed it immediately and just admired the bottle for a minute. That was a year ago. I have yet to spray it. I will eventually, but I am determined to save this beautiful scent for as long as possible. 🙂

Ooooh ! I bidded for,and won a 1968-1973 unopened in its box cologne of this off Ebay.my mum told me that in the 60s,she used to wear the creme of this to see the young Beatles at the Cavern Club when Cilla Black was cloakroom attendant,which spurned me to seek it out…..i was laying the bottle like a fine vintage wine,to break the seal of only when the time was right……and with Autumn magick impending,i chose today !!! I know that a vintage does one of 2 things…..it either degrades and goes off,…..or it matures like a fine wine into something euphoric…..this is definitely the fine wine !it was like opening a time capsule ! And boy,i am not disappointed !it gave me perfume ASMR and i was compelled to play my Eddie Barclay ‘Les Parfums’ music as i sniffed myself…….it smells like an earthy Chanel no5,Cologne, with just a hint of Ma Griffe.it is totally golden,and the aldehydes are zingy and tangy and sherbety,and musky and amber-y with a spicy chilli-ish earthy dry-down.it is enough to impart am absolute time-travel scent-euphoria in me………breaking that seal,i thought “I’ll be the first!” 🙂 it has given my whole day the blissy ambience that i describe !

I loved this. The only setback was that it didn’t last very long. I used to pour it on, and it was still gone an hour later. Very yummy stuff. Would love to smell it again and compare, as others have noted, to Chanel No.5. I don’t remember them as similar, but could be wrong.
bocmanmat – :
In Brazil it is sold in a very reformulated version, along with Charisma, Sweet Honesty and Here’s my Heart (the name is different in Brazil, Toque de Amor) in a sprayless bottle for almost nothing. See if an Avon rep can bring it from Brazil

Avon used to bring back their oldies occasionally. Do they anymore? I’d buy as much Topaz as I could afford!! LOVED this stuff.
verik – :
To me this is Chanel no5 blended with Jovan musk and Johnson’s baby shampoo. A slightly cleaner less skanky Chanel. Its very clean and soapy. I have a 90s reissue bottle and it still smells very fresh. Not a love for me but I would recommend to those who like aldehydes and powdery classics.

Topaze (1959) Avon Cologne Splash
From the dears who sell old sometimes used rummage sale colognes on eBay, I finally got my hands on a fragrance I hadn’t smelled in years. Topaze in the yellow topaz colored liquid in a glass hexagon shaped bottle. What a blast from my past. When first released this perfume was the ‘cheap’ and more accessible Chanel No 5 for the average American housewife. I had an Avon catalog book in the UK and ordered cosmetics talc powder and fragrances from Avon. Coincidentally I ordered the matching talc powder bottles for Avon perfumes such as this one Emprise and Moon Wind. Now about this fragrance. Topaze like I said is similar to No 5 and it is a definite aldehyde floral, with nods to other aldehyde floral perfumes of vintage fame as Arpege by Lanvin, White Shoulders by Evyan L’Air du Temps by Nina Ricci and L’Aimant by Coty. Even as such, this is still it’s own perfume and has that Avon air, with strong aldehydic initial blast. Like bath water with bubbles and a soap that splashes on your skin.
Swimming in the aldehyde water is lemon and bergamot of which the lemon is noticeable and quite pulpy juicy and rich. It’s rather sharp and perhaps even unisex/masculine in the context of modern perfume. This is a lemony aftershave kind of smell but it’s bright and citrusy and also layered with additional unlisted neroli and orange blossom. The citrus and orange flower embrace a rose and ylang ylang that is similar to the florals in No. 5 but I find that this is even more floral. It has carnation (similar to the carnation in L’Air du Temps) and also Wind Song by Prince Matchabelli which itself has much in common with L’Air du Temps. The freshness of the flowers are like flowers with stems in water not in vases but in greenhouses or flower shops where you catch the scent of both the blossom and the water. A very typical floral toilet water aroma.
I detect jasmine green notes and iris. There is a soapy quality to this perfume which becomes even more obvious as it settles down and dries into a vetiver sandalwood and musk with a little amber. This is soapy and clean, blending well with most women or men’s skin, not too delicate long lasting and fragrant. The sandalwood is absolutely gorgeous and the musk with an additional civet note is not as potent as other civets such as Bal a Versailles. This is a good warm soft clean musk and wood scent that has the air of a luxurious soap. For an Avon it is almost an elementary school intro to aldehyde florals for perfumistas.
Years ago in 1959, 1960, 1961, I wore this as a student and when I wanted to smell especially clean and lightly floral but not too ‘perfumy’ and not too glamorous. As it was then, it is now. It’s a day wear day time spring and summer lemon-floral scent with a warm clean musk. Nothing too complex nothing particularly mind blowing. A simple soap and floral toilet water to brighten up your day and to make you feel clean and to splash on after your shower. Simple and moderate, not overpowering but detectable and so lovely on the skin. I am not afraid of old perfumes even when they sell on eBay without knowing where they’ve been. They are on me… again, after such a long time. It’s like embracing an old friend.
Thank You Avon
PELIKAN – :
My bottle just arrived yesterday via EBay. I love this! It’s exactly the way I remember it … though with an adult nose I realize how similar it is to Chanel No. 5 without that awful formaldehyde note 🙂 If this were not an Avon scent it would not be anywhere near as affordable as it is. I thought I would dab this on at night or toss it in my gym bag, but now that we have been reunited I might keep it for more formal occasions. The gem-shaped bottle is beautiful also.
arhiivan – :
Testing a vintage Cologne. Mmm appears in good shape..Very nice indeed. Reminds me of going out to dinner with my parents in our Buick Le Sabre…Nothing is wrong with this perfume, humble as it may be. It is quite agreeable indeed. From the era, it is a solid example of a ladies perfume. I am positive that millions of regular housewives, like myself, were cheered up by putting this on. I like Avon. It is a reputable company even today. You can pick up the vintages on ebay for a song.
PreamiGreedia – :
Lovely vintage fragrance from Avon-it is very much of its time, spicy and warm and rich. A world away from sweet fruit-florals of today. It has definite echoes of Chanel No 5, and dries down to a smooth sandalwood and a little soapy towards the end, but a nice soap. I’ve got very little left and no idea where I can find more. I wish Avon would roll out some of their classics from time to time-I don’t want to smell of sweet candy floss and raspberry fizz, I want sultry aldehydes and warmth!
REDjips – :
Hello people! This beautiful extract was used to be my mum’s dearest friend in the past with its cream jar. Unfortunately like every precious fragrance this is not being produced anymore 🙁 I would like to buy it if i can find it. Please let me know if you have it… By the way i live in Turkey. Thank you in advance…
Dimohka – :
Reminiscent of classic yellow Johnson’s baby shampoo, probably the bergamot and floral notes, but more spicy with a warm woody base. Guess it’s a floral chypre? I have a weak (compared to my other vintage Guerlain cologne-I have to put it on repeatedly to get a stronger fragrance) montre bottle of Fleur de Feu cologne which smells similar to Topaze. Carnation and coriander might be why. Fleur de Feu is also allegedly aldehydic but with my bottle, which I have sometimes thought might be deluted, it is hard to tell.
Topaze also reminds me of Chanel 22, with all those floral notes, but is a little spicier where 22 has that incense scent. Chanel 22 is also supposed to be the most aldehydic fragrance ever and Topaze has that, too. I really think Avon was aiming for a Chanel 22-type smell when they created Topaze.
I am sampling a potent dram bottle of Topaze perfume circa 1963 still in the original box that I got on Ebay and it has held up very well. Wish there was more info about 1950s- 1960s Avon perfumers and the process of developing Topaze, Occur, Unforgettable, Rapture, and the rest. These were great American mid-century fragrances.

Topaze I would wear for a date with Andy Williams in 60-s…And he wouldn’t be reluctant to sing a Moon River just for me…
I never liked any Avons, not until recently, no one from my family ever wore Avon, sadly (I have to admit it now), so this new road of discovering Avon gems of pre-70-s is a very interesting path, full of exciting and unexpected finds. I bought Topaze from same seller I got an additional bottle of Unforgettable, that I suddenly loved to bits. After some struggles with the nozzle, the juice came through and my poor head started to spin like a crazy hamster in a wheel. I never smelled anything like that. It was rich, niche-like incredible smell, that made me think, how little I yet to know of Real Perfumes and True Womanity. Could ANYONE on earth describe this?… Sweet, deep, spicy aldehydic heaven. Epochal.
kivoli – :
You can’t go wrong with this! It is an Avon classic in my opinion. I am searching for that vintage yellow bottle with the topaz on top. How I wish I still had my original!
innowtic – :
I was raised surrounded by 2 perfumistas: my grandmother and my mother. They only wore French perfumes: Arpege, Sortilege, Shalimar, Chanel 5, L’Air du Temps, Couer Joie, etc. Nothing but the best, from France. So, when a friend of my grandmother’s, of very humble origins, gave me a bottle of Topaze as a present (this was back in the 60s, I was a child of 7), both my mom and grandma told me not to spray it in their presence. I could play but then, if we went out, I had to wash it off. So, for years and years I only wore French perfumes.
Boy! Have I changed! The more I learn about perfumes(thank you Fragrantica), the more appreciation I have for non-French scents. And, yes, even Avon has produced some masterpieces. Now, many years later, I purchased a vintage bottle for nostalgia’s sake, and I am trully surprised how distinctive Topaze is. Even when compared to Chanel 5, still, Topaze has that extra unexplainable something that makes it stand out. My opinion is based on a vintage version (which, still smells amazing).
Sander – :
This is a very classy scent I have an old 50’s bottle of cologne shaped like a gem one from the 70’s shaped like a bell and a little bottle from a 70’s demo set. It’s sort of sweet and clean, woody but not harsh. It’s a bit like No5 IMHO. Obviously not the same but in the same vein. I smell clean green jasmine throughout the entire experience. They all have slight differences because of age, different batches of natural and/or synthetic materials but all are essentially the same.
Topaz is so gently floral with sweat hints of fruit and just enough aldehydes to lift it up without being too harsh. I don’t mind the fact that it’s a bit soapy because it totally works and doesn’t feel cheap at all. I’ve never seen the 50’s but I can imagine this is how it smelled. I don’t understand why iris and vetiver are so low on the note list they are quite prominent to me. Powdery but not overly so. A classic!

I love Topaze. My Grandmother wore this, and I recently bought a vintage bottle on the ‘bay for the sake of memory. It’s worth mentioning that this is widely available, inexpensive, and comes in a hilarious variety of flacons, some traditional, some not, including skunks, dogs, bells, butterflies and hippos.
Upon first application, I was stunned. On my skin this scent reminds me of Givenchy Organza, only without the strong sweet-peach jasmine note. Today I tested them side by side, and confirmed the experience.
I don’t get aldehydes from Topaze. It opens warm, spicy, with a subtle sweetness. This is beautifully balanced, and I’m having a hard time picking out individual notes. Instead, this is a beautifully rounded whole.
In the heart, civet shows up slightly, adding an earthy animalistic note, and bringing Topaze into a distinctly sensual scent space.
In the dry down, Topaze develops a slight soapy note, as the aldehydes appear. This is super inexpensive, and I think it’s worth a try. Longevity is good, sillage could be better, but I have applied this the same way that I usually apply edp, and this is edc. I think that three sprays (as opposed to one) would provide a scent trail.
To my nose the dry down of Topaze is almost identical to Organza. Now I know why I had such a strong reaction to Organza- scent memory!
Warm, wearable, recommended for day wear in fall or winter, or evening in spring or summer.

Sometimes Avon used to — and maybe they still do — bring back vintage fragrances for a campaign or two. I wish they would bring Topaze back! The fragrance was around long before I was born, and when I was young I associated Avon fragrances with strong, rock-heavy, old-lady scents (think Timeless). I’d seen bottles of Topaze and thought they looked very dated, but then, when Avon brought back this vintage scent in the early 1980s, an admirer gave me a bottle. What a surprise!
This scent holds its own with confidence and something very uncommon that I can’t quite place. Maybe it’s just the way aldehydes worked in the late 1950s — fragrant, powdery, and strong (I always had to be careful with the application, because a little goes a long way).
Like many others, I wish Avon would bring the formula back for a while. I still have my empty bottle of Topaze. I could never bring myself to toss it out, and the cap still bears the slightest hint of scent.
If you can get your hands on a vintage bottle of this stuff, enjoy! And to everyone who noted that this is a very unisex fragrance by today’s standards; you are absolutely right! One of Avon’s better formulations.
taker – :
Could be unisex by today’s standards….
boardrusforall – :
Topaze is a gorgeous bright floral aldehyde. It opens with the type of soapy vintage glamour that I adore and expect from a 1950’s era aldehyde. The middle phase brings on the florals, especially a strong carnation note that carries through to the drydown, where it is met with soft sandalwood. I barely detect the civet in this at all. Topaze was introduced in the 1950’s but was still being made into the 1990’s, a sad reminder of how beautiful scents were once made for decades without reformulation. I wish Avon would bring this beauty back. I would surely stock up.
zle667speagoessenda – :
I was just able to try a perfect vintage sample of Avon’s Topaze thanks to a Frangrantica mentor, and it is amazing! It conveys that comforting, warm feeling of just stepping out of the shower in a luxury spa . . . candles lit . . .heated towels to dry off . . . white wine waiting. Then warmth and softness envelope you as you put on a thick, opulent bathrobe and luxuriate in the relaxing afterglow.
The aldehydes (which I am learning) and lemon obviously give Topaze the soapy clean character, but it is the floral accord and sandalwood that make it exceptional. The aldehydes are elevated to a superior level in the notes because they are supported by such a soothing foundation and allowed to star.
Experience Topaze with fresh eyes. Although the perfume is vintage, its’ impact is not. If you didn’t know that this was a venerable fragrance, you would embrace the balmy, clean swathe of an ageless beauty. It is a classic for a reason! Sillage good and longevity several hours.

My grandma always had the cream on her dressing table. To me it smelled kind of like her safeguard soap.

Here’s a strange little historical note for you. I had a boyfriend who was working on a movie set where Bette Davis was in the cast (a long time ago!) and when the rest of the cast and crew had gone home he took me for a tour. I peeked at Bette Davis’ dressing room and she had a bottle of Avon Topaze on her dressing table.
Serginyo – :
I love perfumes, I really do. All types. High-end, middle-of-the-road, indie, niche, drugstore, body oils. Fragrance is a key to nirvana. And Topaze is one of those fragrances that takes me there. I own a variety of bottles of this juice, dating from its inception in 1959 up to the 1980’s, and the older bottles are like a fine wine. If you can get your hands on the older Topaze, go for it. Believe me when I tell you, as it ages, it becomes a glorious perfume that has mellowed with age and ripened deliciously into a pure aldehyde and civet delight. When I lavish myself in my vintage Topaze, I cannot get enough of this fragrance.
The inclusion of ylang-ylang amidst other florals is just enough to keep this pleasant for me. I barely consider this a floral. I immediately sense the presence of tonka bean, benzoin and sandalwood in this wonderful creation, while amber mellows it to a smooth creamy texture with just a hint of spice added to the pot with the coriander mixed in. There are many notes in Topaze to create an unbelievably unique fragrance.
I, too, was an Avon snob about their fragrances for years, I’ll admit to this. I didn’t give them a chance. But I believe that’s because I never had a chance to truly smell the originals, the true fragrances of Avon when I was growing up as a child. I only knew the later ones of more recent times as an adult. Now, I am actively pursuing their vintage scents to educate myself in the beginning stages of Avon’s perfume. I’ve found they had some truly quality gems at low prices that smelled divine. Smell is associated with memories, and when I read many reviews about Avon, that’s what I hear others talking about. Their pleasant memories with that particular perfume. So Avon had a win-win situation going; great prices, delivered to your door for free, you shopped from a catalog at your leisure, no-hassle returns and quality products. They perfumes became a popular gifting item, also, and thus, from all points their perfume end of the business was destined to become a success.
Except they would later discontinue their very popular fragrances, for various internal reasons, much to the dismay of many customers. The good news is that you can find these vintages on Ebay, Etsy, garage sales or at flea markets for very good prices.
The vintage parfum lasts longer than the cologne, obviously. This is a scent for confidence, for empowerment, for uplifting spirits, for feeling good about yourself in an earthy way. It reminds me very much of Chanel no. 5. I wear it to bed often because it’s a soothing scent that allows you to dream your wildest dreams, to imagine the impossible, to be a sensual, carefree woman. It’s a scent to wear a mysterious smile. It’s just that good when it’s a vintage bottle.
Yep, I love those vintage Avon classic scents now. They hold a special place amongst my perfume shelves, standing next to my other vintages of yesteryear with pride. Perfume snobbery doesn’t belong there.
azazaze3010 – :
Ahhh, Pure elegance, pure sophistication, pure class in a bottle! A true classic that only seems to earn more and more respect from me compared to the fruity, juicy ‘all smells the same’ celebrity fragrances that are pushed and promoted today. I adore this elegant, timeless classic however, I wish it would last longer on my skin. The cologne splash (so common from Avon back in the day) hardly lasts on me for more than 30 minutes. I recently ordered the small concentrated perfume and can’t wait for it to arrive as I’m hoping I’ll be able to catch luxurious whiffs of it longer. Love it, love it love it!
len-art – :
I still have a bottle of this from so many years ago, I no longer can remember. It smells as fresh as it did when I first bought it. I have it in the tall yellow bottle with the square topaz em on it’s top. I wore this in High School and in my 20’s right up until the time it was discontinued. I do wish Avon would bring this back for old time sake. This has always been a favorite even when I did not look for notes. Topaz really is as classic as a ’67 Mustang convertible!
rookbox – :
My god, Topaze is the perfume for a goddess!
My mother purchased a vintage perfume rolette of it for me at a flea market not long ago. The liquid had turned to a syrup and is amber colored.
At 23, I love vintage perfumes. The classics are classics for a reason and I wish people my age thought the same. Topaze makes me feel sophisticated and seductive.
The notes are blended to perfection.
I smell a burst of sandalwood, Bergamot and Ylang-Ylang in the opening. As it drys down, Jasmine comes out sweetly and softly. After notes are Civet and Amber with a waxy, deliciously warm beauty.
Honestly, It’s divine.
I do wonder if they’ve re-formulated it. I havn’t had the chance to try a new bottle but I can only hope that they havn’t.
Avon outdid itself.

Hi!
if you want to check this perfume , and live near mexico , they sell it in the mexican catalogue by the name ELEGANTE ( elegant )
i dont know how the quality of the ingredients could vary ( cuz is packaged in a horrendous botle with a green cap)
to me , smells like a poor woman chanel 5

With the advent of new creations, especially gourmands, the great classics Floral Aldehydes are becoming in the past! Sad! Topaze is this case. No longer in the catalog Avon, but I was fortunate to acquire many bottles at a cosmetics store for a real bargain! I love my expensive perfumes, but also admire these genuine treasures of incomparable quality and price. Topaze reminds me of one of my favorite perfume, Arpege, many similar notes, only more arid and not as delicate as Lanvin. Topaze leaves a delightful trail wherever he goes. Notes explosive output constrast with delicate background mist that emanates from this great little gem of Avon.
bravorum – :
I managed to find a nearly-new little pot of Avon cream perfume at a bargain price. A small amount on the wrist took me right back to the late 60s early 1970s. It smells EXACTLY as it used to: sweet, fresh, and very, very fragrant. Superb lasting power. Somehow, the cream (or even solid) version of Topaze always smelt superior to the spray version because, when sprayed, the aldehydes would be upfront and evaporate very quickly leaving behind a very soapy trail.
However, with the cream or solid, that creamy white petal effect is much more prominent.
How I wish Topaze could be manufactured again. The few vintage bottles and tubs doing the international shipping rounds will soon run out. (sigh!)
Taneraset – :
Topaze was opulent and bold. It sold for about $1.99 a bottle in the 1960s. Avon changed the way women purchased fragrance-for themselves! Door to door sales ladies would bring samples of these inexpensive and lavishly produced classics. They caught on in every town and city in America. They were more recognized than expensive French rivals.
I remember visiting mothers(mine included) coming to school wearing Topaze, Bird of Paradise, and Heres My Heart, Persian Wood and Occur! Indeed, Avon was the American beauty house.
Topaze is a lot like Joy, yet sweeter and more complex. Oh yes much cheaper too! Its water down version was finally removed from the market in 2000. There are still a few bottle on the web here and there of the original classic. Look for the tall gold bottle with the faux jewel on top.
wqs420Unlogrere – :
I would love to have it again — if I can find it! I first sampled it as a teenager in 1968 or so, and it was from a small pot of “solid” perfume. A little dab on the wrist scented the entire room. Where can I find it? Do Avon still do it?
IgorLeonov – :
i always loved this perfume. sometimes i think avon’s much older scents are better than the new. this is spicy yet powdery with hints of soft citrus. floral hues shine through also. loved the bottle with the topaz on top and the long yellow bottle with the same faux topaz. one of my all time favorites.
sergeyeon – :
This perfume had an awesome violet bottle back in the 90s and I used to adore it. But as a kid, it was too much and unapproachable for me. Then, Avon stopped producing it. They obviously didn’t care that I lived with the hope of using this perfume when I get older 😀
I have a small sample bottle of Topaze and still it smells divine. A self-confident, classy, sophisticated, chic woman walks into a high-ceilinged, white ballroom; dressed in a simple yet striking gown, smiling serenely… That’s the image Topaze form in my mind. I love it!
pwter111 – :
I’m the Guy who LOVES to wear this Avon Classic, Topaze Eau de Cologne. It’s so, so special to me, classy and yes, it works just perfect with my chemistry. I love it, it loves me, and I think Male or Female, wear whatever Fragrance you wish too, why? Because, Fragrances Have NO GENDER!! Fragrances are special, wear them, no matter who’m their made for, it’s a Fragrance, and extension of who you are, an everlasting aura. So, enjoy it, and so will others…

The topaze I have is ten years old.Bought it from a avon sales representative then.To this day it smells very nice.I keep it in the box away from sun light.I very rarely use it but on rare occasions I dose my self with this floral aldehyde.Simply a classic no matter what price.
sergeenko – :
eu acho o cheiro desse perfume horrível!!
Me lembra um pouco o Channel nº5, tem um cheiro ultrapassado e sufocante, deve ser por causa da nota do civette que é bem notável, odeio cheiros animalísticos e
o pior é que onde moro os mais idosos amam essa fragrância.

Discontinued in America now, I do remember my mom had this when I was a child in a body cream. The little jar was so cute w/ a little topaz jewel on the lid. I remember the jasmine, fruity-ness, and rich sandalwood. Would love to smell this again.
