The U fever for men, on the other hand, smells very interesting, specially compared to the regular U for men which was, IMHO, a watery tonka bean infused mess. If I had to take 2 as a gift I would take regular U for women and U fever for men. And as to how did I get to smell them: I went to the Avon store I am always talking about. Cold saturday morning, nothing else to do hehehehehe. I tried it today, algong with the U fever for men, and the previous U’s

I didn't discover Diva until '97 but I loved it when I found it and found it funny and coincidental that Diva also happened to be the name of my newly adopted Siamese kitten that same year. But they're both appropriately named, and I sometimes contemplate picking up another bottle of Diva just for old times' sake. It truly is wonderful stuff and definitely not something you're likely to smell in crowds these days. And it made me feel really confident and put together even though I was a broke college student then and had to save for a month to buy some. ;) mals, I can totally understand.

But they are a perfume house, yes, and this is just one of many "collaborations" they've done lately -- essentially buying a designer or celebrity name. Christian Lacroix, for instance, did an Avon scent at the same time he was doing one under his own brand name, if I'm not mistaken. Although of course he isn't a manufacturer either, so the "one under his own brand" was undoubted licensed to someone else.

Its just a catalog company i thought. Ungaro is the brand in this case. Avon doesnt actually have their own fragrances, do they? Avon isnt the manufacturer, they are just the distributer, correct?
