Imagination
Imagination by Louis Vuitton is a masculine-leaning eau de parfum from 2021 in the luxury price tier. It opens with citron and bergamot, moves into ginger, cinnamon and neroli and dries down to black tea, ambroxan, guaiac wood and frankincense. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Citron Thick-skinned citrus, more zest than juice. Waxy and bright.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Heart
- Ginger Warm, zesty and slightly soapy. Bridges citrus and spice.
- Cinnamon Sweet heat. Reads festive, sometimes to a fault.
- Neroli Distilled orange blossom. Green, soapy and elegant.
Dry-down
- Black Tea Dry, tannic and smoky. More astringent than green tea.
- Ambroxan Clean, mineral, skin-like warmth. The engine behind most modern 'beast mode' scents.
- Guaiac Wood Smoky, tarry and slightly sweet. Like a bonfire and roses.
- Frankincense Bright, peppery, church-like resin. Lifts and cools a fragrance.
