Lucky Me Intense
by Avon
Lucky Me Intense is a creamy, sweet, and subtly complex fragrance with a prominent initial burst of fizzy champagne and citrus, evolving into a soft, powdery floral with distinct vanilla and amber base notes. On the skin, it starts with a sharp, slightly sour fruitiness—reminiscent of white currants—that quickly mellows into a smooth, balmy blend of vanilla and sandalwood. The fragrance develops into a deep, slightly bitter amber finish that lingers, giving it a nostalgic, slightly old-fashioned aura. Despite its delicate projection, it has moderate to strong longevity and works well during winter hours or evenings, especially for those who enjoy a warm, creamy scent with a subtle sillage. It bears a distinctive Avon character—easy to wear, affordable, and simple to identify as a signature household fragrance. While some find the early phase sharp or unbalanced, most agree it improves over time and settles into a cozy, wearable aroma that avoids excessive sweetness.
