Avon Imari Fantasy is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2017. Imari Fantasy opens with Mandarin, Pink Pepper, and Pear, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Jasmin Sambac, Hazelnut, and Caramel, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Avon's Imari Fantasy carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Imari Fantasy is a divisive Avon offering; some find it a delightful, long-lasting gourmand dupe for pricier scents, while others dismiss it as a cheap, sickly sweet disappointment. A true love-it-or-hate-it perfume.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its moderate sillage and longevity, combined with its sweet gourmand profile, make it less suitable for formal or office settings. It excels on dates or casual outings, especially during cooler weather, where its warmth can be appreciated.

About

A sweet, warm embrace opens with a spark of pink pepper and juicy pear, softened by a zesty mandarin. The heart unfurls into a creamy, nutty caramel delight, where roasted hazelnut mingles with delicate orange blossom and jasmine. It settles into a cosy base of soft cashmere wood, earthy patchouli, and comforting vanilla, creating a rich, oriental gourmand experience.
