Louis Vuitton L'Immensite Eau de Parfum
At a glance
Summary
Louis Vuitton L'Immensité Eau de Parfum scores 10/100 — the lowest score in the Louis Vuitton line. The men's ginger-amber EDP stacks THREE chemical UV filters into a leave-on fragrance — octinoxate (a confirmed endocrine disruptor banned in Hawaii's reef jurisdictions), Uvinul A Plus, and avobenzone — purely to keep the tinted juice shelf-stable, alongside BHT, three synthetic dyes (Red 4, Ext. Violet 2, Yellow 5/tartrazine), nine declared EU allergens, and the undisclosed 'Parfum' trade-secret core with no musk or phthalate exclusion pledges. Tocopherol is the one clean touch. No banned ingredients (no Lilial, no HICC) keeps it out of single digits — but this is a $370 bottle whose formula profile sits beside 1990s drugstore designer scents.
Key ingredients 21
Parfum (Fragrance)Very Bad
Trade-secret blanket term that legally conceals dozens to hundreds of individual aromachemicals. For a high-projection LVMH designer scent the blend almost certainly contains synthetic polycyclic musks (Galaxolide, Tonalide) — endocrine disruptors that bioaccumulate in human fat tissue and breast milk — and LVMH discloses no phthalate-replacement policy for its solvent system.

A third chemical UV filter stacked into a leave-on fragrance purely for shelf-color stability — newer and less studied than avobenzone; unnecessary dermal exposure.

IFRA / EU-declared fragrance allergen; required on the label because it exceeds 0.001% in this leave-on product. IFRA restricts maximum use levels in leave-on products because of its high contact-allergy rate.
