Lucky Me Intense by Avon

This is a perfume for those looking for an uncommon scent, different and for daring people who dare to wear a scent that not everyone will like, because if you overspray it can be overpowering for others. You can smell unripe blackcurrant, a very distinct champagne note and mandarin with all the peel and even the leaf (this is felt right to the end), after a few minutes an orchid note comes out that can feel a little synthetic and a powerful sandalwood, although it has vanilla I couldn’t describe it as a vanilla or sweet fragrance, on the contrary it carries a bitter note I assume from the mandarin, and I don’t dislike that. Perhaps my review will seem confusing to whoever reads it, as you can’t tell whether I like it or not and that’s exactly it. In cold weather I can wear it cautiously, if it’s hot it can end up smelling like insecticide. It lasts about 4 or 5 hrs with moderate sillage. I recommend trying before wearing.

This perfume arrived today that I already wanted to try because of its excellent reviews. “I loved it”. I would describe it as a powerful, intense but fresh perfume, not overpowering or cloying. It’s like a meticulously prepared cocktail, unique. I can’t find it similar to any other yet, however, to give you an idea, it’s in the style of Versace Yellow Diamond and Right Crystal. But note, “it isn’t like them” but they share “that style of fragrance”. Meaning if you like those Versace perfumes, most likely you’ll like Lucky Me. Lasting power approx. 5/6 hours with good strength and I’ve noticed that after it dries down it’s even richer than in the opening… I really liked it, and on top of that its bottle is lovely with that gradient between pink and violet that makes it very decorative on the dressing table. So I highly recommend it.

It deserves vindication for the reviews I read. I love it!!! yes, it improves in the dry-down, about 5 minutes after applying it changes and a sweet but not cloying fragrance settles for a long time, vanilla-like and floral and the champagne liquor note remains, although the mix reminds me of a cocktail afternoon. It smells like that, a glamorous cocktail. I find it original and it makes me happy. I would buy it again.

I am somewhat confused by this fragrance, I expected to feel the champagne note up front, in the style of Avon’s Extraordinary and I couldn’t find it, I only found currants and vanilla, which if it weren’t for the particularly synthetic aroma, would be almost the same as Natura’s Likes or Curtidas de Humor. At first sniff I was quite disappointed not to smell the champagne…. as the hours passed I liked feeling that it still lingered both on clothes and on skin, that is the most positive thing about this perfume along with its packaging which is quite “cute”. I consider it a good option if in your countries the Curtidas de Humor or Likes is discontinued or even an affordable version of Ilia Secreto. Update: in the dry-down I love it, it reminds me of Avon’s Mesmerize from the 90s, it perfumes clothes for days and days and I still smell it even after showering on skin, it is a very good perfume that evolves over the hours, it starts rather synthetic and strange but then settles into a delight of red berries and champagne. Very lovely.

Champagne, golden amber and vanilla pod. I get the boozy champagne note above all in the opening of the perfume, however once it settles the amber note stands out, it is heavy and bitter, which means it doesn’t fully convince me. I would describe it as an oriental white floral, slightly powdery (vanilla). It has vintage perfume traits, which I don’t see as a negative, as I like this kind of fragrance, nevertheless I had other expectations, I thought it would be more youthful and sparkling, it is not. I recommend, if you can, trying it before buying it.

Floral, boozy, vanilla-like, powdery. Gardenia is the star, you can feel the champagne from the start, during the life of the perfume what you feel is a boozy gardenia, with sandalwood and vanilla. It is NOT a fragrance for daytime, nor for hot days, it will overwhelm you, but in the cold or on rainy days it is very enjoyable ❤. It can be youthful, it has quite a lot of character. Its longevity for a catalogue fragrance is high, 5 to 6 hours on skin and on clothes it lasts until washed. Its sillage is moderate to strong.

It deserves vindication given the reviews I’m reading. I love it!!! Yes, it improves in the dry-down, about 5 minutes after applying it changes and a sweet but not sickly fragrance settles for a long time, vanilla-like and floral, and the boozy champagne note lingers, although the mix reminds me of a cocktail afternoon. It smells like that, a glamorous cocktail. I find it original and it makes me happy. I would buy it again.

I’m a bit confused by this fragrance, I expected to smell the champagne note up front, in the style of Avon’s Extraordinary, and I couldn’t find it, I only found redcurrants and vanilla, which if it weren’t for the particularly synthetic aroma, would be almost the same as Natura’s Likes or Curtidas de Humor. At first sniff I was quite disappointed not to smell the champagne…. over the hours I liked feeling that it still lingered on both clothes and skin, that’s the most positive thing about this perfume along with its packaging which is quite “cute”.

Update: in the dry-down I love it, it reminds me of Avon’s Mesmerise from the 90s, it scents clothes for days and days and I still smell it on skin even after showering, it’s a very good perfume that keeps changing over the hours, it starts a bit synthetic and strange but then settles into a delight of red berries and champagne. Very lovely.

For the brave seeking something unusual: opens with green blackcurrant, strong champagne, and tangerine peel with leaf notes that last. Minutes later, a slightly synthetic orchid and potent sandalwood emerge; while it has vanilla, it’s bitter rather than sweet, which I love. Performs well in cold weather, but in heat it smells like insecticide. Lasts 4-5 hours with moderate sillage. Try it before committing.

Arrived and I loved it. I’d describe it as powerful, intense yet fresh, without being overwhelming or cloying. It’s a unique cocktail with no direct comparisons, but if you enjoy Versace Yellow Diamond or Right Crystal, this is your style. Lasts 5-6 hours with great intensity and becomes even richer as it dries down. The pink-violet gradient bottle is gorgeous and decorative. Highly recommended.

I think it’s beautiful; I’ve received many compliments, so it’s not just for me. It lasts all day on skin and clothes; if you’re hugged, the scent clings to the person and they still smell like you the next day. Fantastic! I’d just like to know if it’s inspired by any designer or niche fragrance.

Deserves to be championed by the reviews I’ve read. I love it! It improves as it dries down: about five minutes later it shifts to something sweet but not cloying, vanilla and floral, while keeping the champagne’s boozy character. It represents a glamorous cocktail afternoon for me. I find it original and uplifting. Would I buy it again? Yes.

I’m a bit confused by this fragrance; I expected to smell the champagne note right away, in the style of Avon’s Extraordinary, but I couldn’t find it, only noticing blackcurrants and vanilla. If it weren’t for the particularly synthetic scent, it would be almost identical to Natura’s Likes or Curtidas de Humor. At first sniff, I was quite disappointed not to smell the champagne… but as hours passed, I liked feeling that it lasted so long on clothes and skin; that’s the most positive thing, along with its packaging which is quite cute. I consider it a good option if Likes or Curtidas de Humor is discontinued in your country, or even an affordable version of Ilia Secreto. Update: I love the dry-down; it reminds me of Avon’s Mesmerize from the 90s. It perfumes clothes for days and I can still smell it on my skin after a shower. It’s a very good fragrance that evolves with time, starting a bit synthetic and strange but then settling into a delight of red fruits and champagne. Very lovely.

I own it and I really like having it; I only wear it on special occasions or when I miss it because I haven’t used it in weeks. It’s mysterious and has good projection. As for the sillage… well, right after spraying and then after 40 minutes, it still has presence around people for up to 3 hours, but I’d say the perfume persists on me for about 6 to 8 hours. I think I’ll buy it again when I finish the bottle.

It smells of champagne, golden amber and vanilla bean. The boozy champagne note stands out at first, but as it settles, the heavy, bitter amber takes over, which doesn’t quite convince me. I’d describe it as a white floral oriental, slightly powdery. It has vintage qualities, which I like, but I was hoping for something more youthful and sparkling. I’d recommend trying it before buying.
