Avon, an organization that promoted multi-level marketing was a staple of many people's lives prior to when LuLaRoe became a cult. Some of the most loved Avon products were perfumes and colognes.

A number of the old perfume bottles from Avon are now highly sought-after collector's pieces. They are available at yard sales antique malls, flea markets.

The History of Avon Perfumes

Avon might bring up images of cheap cosmetics and annoying door-to-door salespeople but its rich history goes back to 1886. David H. McConnell, a traveling salesman of books discovered that he could attract more attention by offering perfume samples to women listening to his book's sales pitch. The popularity of his scents grew so much that the California Perfume Company (later Avon) was founded.

Perfumes can be created by mixing ingredients in high quantities. They last all day. Avon offers a wide range of perfumes suitable for males and females.

The Avon logo has changed over time, but it has remained consistent in its heritage and emphasis on beauty. The iconic symbol is an intricate design with flowers and ribbons. The logo has been adapted to the more modern Avon website however, the original logo will be familiar to anyone who has seen an old Avon ad or read one of its famous advertising campaigns, such as "Ding-Dong, Avon Calling" which ran from 1954 until 1967. During its heyday Avon made a number of different bottles depicting figures. Collectors with a passion for collecting are always looking for these bottles.

Avon Perfumes for Women

When you're shopping for your favorite Avon fragrances, it's a good idea to inquire about the status of a particular scent you're a fan of. Some representatives may inform you that a specific fragrance is no longer available however, don't buy a lifetime supply of the fragrance until you verify the information with another representative or the company itself.

Many Avon fragrances have been discontinued and they've got an ardent fan base.

Certain perfumes may not have the same resell price as the Rene Lalique glass bottle, however, they still can fetch a lot of cash on the market for second-hand.

Avon perfumes were first created by a salesman who sold books door-to-door named David H. McConnell in 1886. He created them to give women who were listening to his book pitches but they soon became more popular than the books themselves. Avon has grown into one of the biggest companies for selling perfumes in bottles.
