Incandessence Lotus
by Avon
Incandessence Lotus is a light, fresh, and feminine floral-fruity fragrance with a dreamy, romantic quality. It opens with a soft blend of blackberry, quince, and ivy, leading into a delicate heart of lotus, peony, and white ginger lily, all balanced with a subtle musky and powdery drydown. The scent is uplifting, bright, and slightly soapy in its initial phase, evoking a hazy, Monet-like soft focus. Comparable to Lanvin Moderna Princess and Chanel Chance Eau Tendre, it shares a similar freshness and elegance but with a deeper musky and slightly more musky base, making it feel more grounding than those perfumes. The profile is approachable, clean, and well-blended — ideal for spring and summer wear, particularly during daytime. Despite its short longevity and moderate sillage, many find it charming and a surprisingly high-quality Avon offering. Its appeal lies in its delicate balance and the impression of more expensive crafting, with some recommending using it on clothing or layering with body lotion to extend wear.
