What does Pure Cali (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Pineapple comes first and gives the scent a sweet, fruity edge. Water lily in the heart adds a fresh, floral softness, and cedarwood in the base ties it to a light woodiness. The overall impression is fresh, floral and sweet rather than heavy or dense.

Longevity is rated moderate and sillage weak, though the number of ratings is small, so these figures are only a rough guide. It is positioned as a feminine fragrance and has been discontinued. Avon Summer White Rio and Avon One share a close profile.
