Lancome La Vie Est Belle is a sweet floral gourmand fragrance for women. It launched in 2012 and is still in the line today. This is the 100ml bottle.
How It Smells
The opening is blackcurrant and pear, which is the brightest part of the wear and fades within the first half hour. Underneath, iris alongside orange blossom and jasmine carries the middle, and this is what most people will actually smell on you. What remains at the end of the day is praline alongside patchouli and tonka bean, closer to the skin and warmer than the opening suggested.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this Lancome La Vie Est Belle original?
Yes. Perfume Philippines has sold 100% original, imported fragrances online since 2012. Every bottle is fresh stock, and cash on delivery is available nationwide.
How long does Lancome La Vie Est Belle last?
Very long lasting, 8 hours or more. Spraying onto moisturised skin, and onto your shirt collar as well as your wrists, helps it hold longer in humid weather.
Is La Vie Est Belle a good date night scent?
Yes. It has enough warmth and staying power for an evening out. Apply about 30 minutes before you leave so the opening notes have settled.
How does La Vie Est Belle compare to YSL Black Opium?
YSL Black Opium is the closest comparison, the other big sweet gourmand bestseller, darker and coffee-led. La Vie Est Belle is built on a praline base with blackcurrant up top, so judge them on that: if you want the praline direction, this is the one. Both are stocked here when available, so you can compare prices directly.
