Loud, obnoxious, and boring
L'Immensité is the perfect encapsulation of the average Louis Vuitton consumer. Loud, brash, arrogant, he carries a wallet with the LV logo emblazoned all over it to signal to the ladies that he has money. In reality, that wallet is the same quality and made in the same Chinese factory as the Fossil you can get at the mall for 1/10 of the price. But who cares about that, right?

It's crazy to me that some reviewers on here call this elegant or classy. L'Immensité is anything but. It's the olfactory equivalent of driving a bright yellow car with a modified exhaust and a foot-tall spoiler. You are wearing this scent for others, not yourself. You want to get compliments. And you will.

Scent-wise, this is just grapefruit with a ton of aromachemicals to extend its life and have the sillage reach as many people as possible. The aromachemical accord just feels like "generic male scent #1." Ambroxan, ISO-E, Cascalone, all the usual suspects. It doesn't even have the nice vetiver drydown of TdH.

Terre d'Hermès Eau de Toilette is classy, elegant, reserved. L'Immensité is his f**boi cousin who can't get enough attention and has to be escorted out of clubs.

The Vast Mediterranean
Extremely underrated cologne solely due to its resemblance to basic blue scents yet this could not be further from the truth.
While it is not the most complex / challenging scent nor is it fully packed with natural compounds (which scent is nowadays), it is an attention grabbing crowd pleaser. It smells well blended and of high quality synthetic compounds, a bit harsh at the first spray but the edges round off a little in a few minutes.

My best description of it (which I am surprised not more have picked up on): think YSL Kouros’ musky amber, slightly cleaner and with a much much better blend of citrus and aromatic components.
A fruity sour grapefruit opening mixed with a spicy aromatic aquatic feeling, all resting on a very prominent salty musk-ambergris (ambroxan). The ambergris sort of resembles the one found in Profumi del Forte’s Ambra Mediterranea: salty wet and warm. This scent evokes the feelings of relaxing on a boat on a humid summer day in the Mediterranean, you’re in the middle of the sea at sundown with a warm wind blowing off the surface of the water, filling your lungs with the sea’s essence.

People, especially women, will notice you in the air and they love it from my experience, it’s clean sharp smelling but with a musky dirty touch that gives it an edge over a basic woody aromatic/ chypre like BdC or Aventus. On skin it lasts the whole day, projects for a couple of hours quite strongly (probably even longer since we all underestimate ambroxan’s sillage power). On clothes it lasts days.
It is an expensive purchase but this is one of the few fragrances I have actually repurchased (refilled at half price) coming from a maniac who has bought everything from basic blue scents to Rojas and Clive Christians.

I think it is an excellent fragrance for daily use, especially at night time in summer/autumn. I discovered it on my friend 2.5 years ago on a high heat evening in summer while I stepped in his car; one of the few fragrances that I asked someone “what is that? it smells f
ng amazing” and bought the bottle a few days later. For me to give a compliment, the scent must be something I hadn’t sampled in over 300 perfumes I have tried and it must be at the level of some heavyweight champions.
Highly recommend it. At least sample it.

“Overpriced & Worth It?!”
Opens sparkling, fruity, zesty, citrusy-sweet, bitter at times, aquatic without going full on water, with a swirling grey-airy-ozonic accord (ambroxan), eventually evolving into the dry down, the overall feel becomes dry, leathery, and warm but never loses it’s fresh components. While it is mainstream, with designer-ish qualities (and likely overpriced), it is also undeniably attractive, very versatile, and mass appealing. I like it for what it is, an easy reach.

Sunshine in a Bottle
I received L’Immensité as a gift and I have worn it alongside Tygar, BDC, Percival, Sedley, Afternoon Swim, and Imagination. In my opinion, it borrows and shares a bit with them all. The magnificent grapefruit openings of Tygar & Afternoon Swim. The intoxicating & ethereal quality of Imagination without the tealeaf (which I prefer). The versatility and depth of BDC EDP (with Cascalone replacing Incense). The aromatic & fresh spiciness of the PDM “blues” but even smoother.

In terms of pure AROMA, it’s hard to dismiss L’Immensité as an ALL-TIME GREAT. I browsed two LV stores last month where the sales staff noted their preference for it as their best men’s fragrance.

What may be even more impressive, you could call this a linear scent, because (for myself) it just does NOT dry down for 6-9 hours and this includes the very high-quality citrus opening and aquatic heart notes. (What I find with Tygar and its clones (e.g. Turathi Blue) is that they gradually drydown to a heavy spice/amber that I do not like.

In terms of VALUE. since I own a bottle of L’Immensité now, the cost to refill 100ml will be comparable to buying another bottle of BDC EDP noting that L'Immensite is higher quality (niche level), has more longevity, and takes fewer sprays.

I am very glad I received it as a gift because I would have put the money instead towards 2-3 other designer alternatives and not experienced what I have in hand now and IT IS SPECIAL.

Great signature scent
L’Immensite is what made me fall in love with Louis Vuittons fragrances in the first place. This was love at first sniff for both me and my girlfriend.
Absolutely signature scent worthy.
It’s not a typical fresh fragrance.
This has more depth to it, suits pretty much any occasition and all year around.
Has this beautiful ginger in it and a beautiful grapefruit opening. The ambroxan and amber also gives it some warmth making it suitable for colder months aswell altough I would say it shines the most during warmer months. Absolute masterpiece of a fragrance and this beats Imagination by MILES.

Reminds me of the original Michael Jordan Cologne that came out in 1996, but not synthetic. This is about as basic as basic can get.

Unique in a genre which is not unique at all. Very high quality and 9h+ longevity. Love how the Amber balances citrus-woody-aquatic notes.

It's Diesel fuel for life (same perfumer 13 years later) but a bit better and stupidly overpriced.

To me this is a banging fresh scent. I can wear this as a daily. Clean and elegant at the same time. Does remind me of some 90´s smell

A 90’s cascalone aquatic dressed in Tygar clothing. Literally the Steve Buscemi meme. Okay. Not for me.

Strong grapefruit and ginger opening, backed by a nice amber, with a fresh aquatic overlay. Nicely done but pricely for that scent category.
