Avon Prima (Dreams) is the benchmark for this scent profile. Alternatives may be worth comparing, but they are independent products and we do not present them as equivalent to Avon's own fragrance.
They do not replace the original fragrance, its presentation, or the version created under the brand's own quality control. If that is what you are looking for, search the official site or trusted retailers below.

The fragrance these clones are inspired by.
Released in 2015, during a period when mainstream brands leaned into fruity-rose gourmands and soft musks, Prima (Dreams) from Avon is a women's fragrance that pairs plum and pear at the top with a floral heart of rose, iris and jasmine that settles on musk, cedar and vanilla. The overall profile reads fruity, sweet and powdery with a clear rose thread and woody-musky support. With a community rating of about 3.77/5 across 581 votes, the perfume draws mostly positive but mixed responses: many enjoy its pretty, powdery floral-fruity character while others find it too familiar or modest in projection.
Our take
I find Prima pleasant and easy to wear: the plum and pear make a bright opening, rose and iris keep it tidy, and the vanilla-musk base softens everything. The community numbers match my take, most people like it, yet a notable minority dislike it. Performance is the weakest point for me: it can be skin-close and short-lived on some days, though others report better longevity. It’s a good, affordable daytime spring option if you want something safe and feminine rather than bold.
Dominant Accords
The Bottle
Avon Prima (Dreams) has a tall, slim bottle with a rounded-rectangular body, curved shoulders and visibly pink liquid. Its transparent-looking faceted cap and angular decoration on the lower section give the otherwise conventional form a welcome point of distinction. The dark AVON and PRIMA label keeps the presentation straightforward.
Original or Clone
The original has the stronger case here: its faceted cap and angular lower decoration give Prima (Dreams) a welcome distinction beyond its conventional upright form. One house has tried to reproduce this fruity, rose-and-sweet fragrance, a modest sign that the release has attracted attention. We have no resemblance evidence, so the recommendation rests on the bottle’s appeal and that reference status, not on any measurable advantage.
