Which Should You Buy?
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.
This one's a cheeky clone, no doubt, but the general consensus is that it's a softer, more versatile take on the original's overly sweet character. You're getting bang for your buck here, with performance that won't let you down and a scent profile that's widely appealing.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
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.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its sweet, prominent accords make it fantastic for dates and casual wear, drawing compliments without being overbearing. While wearable in the office when applied lightly, its richness might be a bit much for very formal or sporty settings.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Sweet, Vanilla, Patchouli accords and Jasmine, Patchouli notes
