Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Elixir 11 EDP
This one is a proper 'love it or hate it' scent, no two ways about it. Expect compliments from its admirers and raised eyebrows from those who find its rose and patchouli combo a bit much. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
Statement
Our Verdict - Imari Elixir EDP
Imari Elixir is a surprisingly sophisticated, dark berry-vanilla scent that punches well above its price point. It's an Avon blind-buy gem for those who crave a seductive, deep fragrance, though some find it a touch too sweet or cloying in warmer weather.

Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:

Imari Elixir

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its strong sillage and potent, sweet, and dark profile make it less suitable for office wear where subtlety is key. However, these same characteristics, especially the seductive and warm notes, lend themselves perfectly to date nights and elegant evening events. It's a bit much for casual daytime but can work for dressy casual occasions.
