|  This tops my list of barf inducing perfumes. Awful, just awful. And on everyone. This is thick, rich, smoky, but a sickening sweet odor. Like you're trying to cover up bad body odor or something. Just nasty! It's a strong incense perfume. I totally see my mom wearing this toxic waste, really. She loves patchouli oil and Tabu. This is somewhat similiar because they're all heavy and smoky. Yuck! All fingers down on this one. 20 April 2008 |

|  Of all my fancy and varied perfumes, this is the one that the men always compliment me on (unless I'm wearing the vanilla that smells like cookies: they go for that, too.) A soft, vanilla-y oriental on me, it's nice without being aggressive. I tend to wear it in winter around the holidays. 21 April 2007 |

|  My perfume-hating mum got this as a present and never used it. I sprayed some when I was in her house, and it smelled Old Lady Perfume. Really bad, cloying and musty. Now I love vintage chypres and rich orientals, that's not what I'm talking about, it just smelled cheap, and aggressive yet lacking in personality. I could not discern a note, or scent family, or anything. Perhaps it was a bit musky/spicy? 09 April 2007 |

|  Avon still makes this and I am glad. I dont think its a strong smelling Oriental, and thats probably good for me. I am a floral person. Yeah, this smells really good. 16 March 2007 |

|  I got a very large bottle of Imari from my grandmother (who'd also bought me Sweet Honesty at age 8), for Christmas when I was 12. It was probably not appropriate for my age, but I loved it. Imari seemed so grown up, warm and rich, with much more depth than the perfume I had been allowed to wear up until that point (namely the already mentioned Sweet Honesty and Muguet de Bois). I also loved the dark red plastic bottle, vaguely Middle Eastern in design; so mysterious and sophistocated to my adolescent self! I'm tempted to buy a bottle for the nostalgia. 09 May 2006 |

|  I liked this enough in the 80's to buy a large bottle, but about halfway through I realized that what I really wanted was just a good Oriental fragrance and well, Imari is a decent Oriental, but all in all it doesn't have much of a personality of it's own. I stopped using it and eventually gave it away. 21 February 2006 |
