Fragrance WorldFrench Avenue Essence Collection (Essence De Blanc)

My husband purchased this and I honestly cannot keep my hands off him, he likes high end and low end fragrances depending on where he is going… this is budget friendly but definitely one of the best fragrances

Smells light and fresh

8.5/10 Clean & EarthyDisclaimer: Not everyone is going to like this right off the rip. With the dry down and a few test runs you’ll enjoy the appeal.Known for being a similar fragrance to LV Imagination. This is Black tea forward on the initial spray and can be hard for most to enjoy without knowing the scent beforehand. You can also sense something else in the mix, which you’ll find out to be the Citron, Orange, and Ginger. These are a little harder to pick up on the nose.On to the best part of this fragrance, the dry down is So Clean. Soapy and earthy scent. This is just really nice when you need something to put on. I do recommend this for anyone’s collection as it is arguably ONE OF THE MOST VERSATILE fragrances you’ll find. There is no denying a clean scent can go anywhere.Of course there is a downside. This lasts close to 3hrs on me. It’s not very strong on dry down either. The projection is not there. For this reason, my rating should be lower but the scent does make up for all the low spots.

Amazing, and long lasting!!!!!!!!!!

There’s a strong note of tee on the opening that makes it very unique. As that comes off this fragrance becomes phenomena. Not many complements but I can smell it on myself all day.

Wow, I hope this gets better with time. I am counting on a little maceration time for a few weeks to blend things and smooth it out. I don't get LV Imagination at all... my first impression is the old Avon stuff your grandmother used to wear 40 years ago--yes, strong old lady perfume! There are no oranges or ginger, just pungent grass and synthetic smells that are even somewhat offensive. This is not enjoyable at all upon arrival. I will change my review later after I give this some time to work its magic on itself.... I wouldn't wear this in the shower, right now. I had to wash it off and put on some Acqua Di Gio Profumo.

This stuff is fire, I havnt smelled original imagination but I heard it’s 95% similar. It has that tea note that’s hard to get used to at first but the dry down is amazing. You can pair this with so many colognes and it adds that unique amazing smell. Gets compliments left and right. 10/10 last 5 hours minimum

Now this isn't a BAD smell by any means. i think this is actually very pleasant, despite smelling synthetic. but it's just that. synthetic. one thing LV does is make basic smelling scents, but it's HIGH QUALITY basic. this is low quality basic. but it still smells great, given the price. i think if you just want something that smells good that's a fresh tea/citrus smell, then this is great. but don't buy this thinking you're getting a 1:1 clone of imagination.
