Not another
The proper name for this should be not another blue scent, because it's not. This is a perfect fragrance for the Summer and the spring, but what I like about this is that it's not one of those boring blue fragrances it's very unique with bergamot and a tea note that give it a very minty note some sweetness and spices to round things out, my second favorite from this line.

Poor man’s Imagination
While I do see the resemblance and it’s definitely a good stand alone, it’s not in the same league as Louis Vuitton Imagination. A bit sour and raspy, it feels like something’s “missing”. It’s certainly in the organic nature of the original. There is a reason they can command over $300 for the LV potion. I do like the presentation for what that’s worth………
Great price

Alternative to Art of Arabia I
Once again a review of a "clone", this time Imagination by LV. Probably one of the most sought-after fragrances of the moment and therefore also very popular for dupes. As usual, brands from Dubai do this really well, but of course you should lower your expectations a little. For 10-15% of the price of Imagination, it is really difficult to bring something onto the market that comes close to dueling with LV. But if you have some leeway, you will certainly find great things, like this Karus Blu Spice.
Khadlaj is a brand that I haven't tested yet, but this brand is also known for a great Reflection clone with Shiyaaka Silver. As a rule, brands from Dubai are often on the same good level and often out and about with quite good inexpensive dupes. I bought this Blu Spice from the Karus range new and is currently only half a Cheapie, but very affordable in terms of price.

The packaging and bottle are quite pretty. The packaging is simple and not too pompous like many other Dubai brands. The bottle is beautifully ribbed and fits perfectly in the hand. The lid is also beautifully finished.
In terms of scent, this fragrance really captures the vibes of Imagination. Of course, this fragrance is nowhere near the quality and depth of the original, but for me Blu Spice is a fragrance you can feel comfortable with and it would also work well as an inexpensive daily if you already own Imagination. In terms of quality, it is similar to Art of Arabia I. Those who were bothered by the minty note in Lattafa will find a version without mint here. Overall, the pyramid is very similar to that of Imagination. The raw materials may not seem to have been trimmed to perfection, but the result is quite impressive. The citrus with tea & ginger with a dash of cinnamon also puts you in a good mood here and will make people happy who are looking for a fragrance that is reasonably priced and goes roughly in this direction. After this typical citrusy summer DNA in the first few hours, this fragrance becomes much woodier. All in all, a fragrance that is definitely 70-80% similar to the original and also smells good.
Performance is in the medium range and therefore by far not competitive with the original. Lasting time is about 5-6 hours with 2-3 hours of decent sillage, after that it's close to the skin. But top for in between and for sporting activities.

If you want to have a rough Imagination in your collection, this is a good, pleasant alternative. Those who want perfection in fragrance notes and performance should pay the €290.

Independent fruity, creamy, slightly smoky Imagination substitute :D

First of all, the Karus Blue Spice is not a 1-to-1 dupe, it starts similarly to the LV but much more fruity (citrus, tangerine, orange) possibly also a bit like Afternoon Swim. This is followed by a creamy and slightly smoky note.

The fragrance exudes these notes very strongly for the first 2 hours, which was confirmed to me again today by a colleague when he said: you can smell you the whole corridor :)

After the two hours, it becomes close to the skin and the slightly creamy fruity note remains.

The longevity could be better after 4 hours, in my opinion it is over or really very close to the skin.

But if you are looking for a fragrance that is well received in the summer, with decent sillage and similarities in the opening with Imagination, you really get a very round and beautifully made fragrance here.

Only with the prices you have to see how it develops because I do not see the 75 euros justified by a certain side.

As with so many Imagination alternatives, availability and prices are unfortunately a difficult issue.
Unfortunately, this often only subsides after about a year and in my opinion it is worth waiting until then because all these alternatives are not worth the exorbitant prices
