This is a winner from Avon for me – Gourmand lovers, please do blind buy it. I got it for £6 on offer. Caramel, vanilla and orange are what I get initially, praline comes through with hazelnut later. Its longevity is good, lasting around 8 hours on me. It’s certainly sweet but it has some depth, probably from the patchouli (which I can’t really detect). Sillage is good too. I’ll buy it again.

One of the best perfumes from Avon. Just got it due to very good reviews. it was a blinbuy that i do not regret. it smells expensive. i just cannot put my finger on it… I think it has something in common with Amarige from Givenchy.

This is one of my favorite in the Imari collection aside from Imari Elixir (its even more appealing to me)! I love its scent since my mother ordered this during its first release here in the Philippines. I’m looking forward on buying one for myself and it’s not a problem since I’m a dealer. But I’ll share Imari bold/fantasy with my mom for now 😀

After applying, I got an almost juicy, luminous note that only lasted for 3 seconds before it settled into safe and bland orange blossom/bergamot territory which is warm but dry.It’s not hazelnutty, vanilic or caramel-like at all.
Upon sniffing my wrist I got some faint hints of ..mothballs/old clothes, which could be the jasmine sambac, according to the internet description of its smell.
It lasts for two to three hours max (I’m generous here) and mostly stays close to the skin but this could vary according to skin type.I’m on the drier side.
Imari fantasy and Incandessence Lumiere (both avon)seem to have the same predominant orange blossom note but the Lumiere is a lot more juicier and has better sillage.
Conclusion: if you love straight orange blossom with hints of old clothing and you like reapplying, this is for you.

This is called Imari Bold here in New Zealand. It is a super fruity-patchouli type scent with a strong praline note with a fizzy rose/bergamot type note. It’s quite long lasting, not unpleasant at all just not the type of fragrance I like, it is too sweet-candy for my liking. If you like sweet toffee gourmand scents this could be for you, it is a bit like a watered down Coco Mademoiselle/Flowerbomb hybrid to my nose.

Well Here’s ANOTHER One that Avon U.S. Doesn’t have, even Though IMARI was First launched here in the Mid 80’s and was a HUGE Hit…hhhmmmn I wonder When and IF we’re gonna have it!

This seems to be the same fragrance as IMARI BOLD, which was released in Australia during 2017. The notes printed on the box include jasmine sambac, caramelized hazelnut and cashmere woods, which agree with the notes above.
Another Avon perfume with two names is Little Black Dress, aka Chic in Black.

Well, with notes like hazelnut and caramel…I obviously have to get it.
