Lancome La Vie Est Belle Reviews

This is such a beautiful scent that lingers for ages! I received a little bottle of this as part of the Lancôme GWP and of course I ripped into it straight away because It was perfume. And I almost ran back to purchase the full bottle. (If it wasn't for the impatient 16 month old I would of)

I must be getting older I thought after I had put some on and sat smelling this scent. I was a typical oriental nothing too floraly type of fragrance wearer and this is nothing like that.

I can smell patchouli with hints of pear and the man of the house said he can smell vanilla. This fragrance is very feminine and pretty I think the pink colour of the actual fragrance is very fitting being so girly and feminine.

The scent doesn't really change during the day like some fragrances do with different notes coming through. This has stayed the same from first spray and it has lasted all day. I also got a wee bit on my scarf my scarf has since gone through the wash and I can still smell it just as intense as before it went in the wash so be warned if your not overly fussed on it be mindful of clothing. I cannot wait to do the 4 hour round trip to purchase the full sized bottle of this.

This is one of those perfumes that has been compared to Viktor & Rolf's Flowerbomb many times (much like Pink Happiness Delicate moments-Revlon.)

I can't compare the two having never tried Flowerbomb.

La Vie Est Belle is a very strong, almost mid 90's type of perfume. Despite having gourmand notes, I do not find this similar to the majority of candy like perfumes currently on the market.

At times this does have a fairly synthetic type of smell. Overall though, I would describe this perfume as having a scent like burnt sugar-almost cloying, but somehow still pleasant.

I really like this perfume! Think its a fab alternative to Viktor & Rolfs Flowerbomb.. Nice to have something different as everyone has V&R's perfume

This is a very elegant and soft fragrance, it has a subtle sweet scent. It is very similar to Flowerbomb, the only difference i find is that Flowerbomb has a much stronger floral scent compared to La Vie Est Belle which is more subtle and gentle in it's tone of floral scent. A great perfume to wear everyday, would make a great gift, or for that special occasion.

My partner purchased this for me as a gift and now I wouldn't use anything else. I use it daily and get lots of comments on how nice I smell. I would describe the scent as a fruity floral. The fragrance lasts all day and you don't need a lot as a little goes a long way.

I bought this duty free at the end of a great holiday. I tried a few samples because I was in the mood for a random new fragrance and it was a snap decision. La Vie Est Belle is a gorgeous discovery; feminine with just enough floral tones and a touch of my old favourite patchouli to make it very distinctive. I'm extremely pleased with this choice and it's my favourite already. I agree that it's best sprayed around the neck and behind the ears for best effects - and it does last well. It's always hard to recommend a perfume because we have such personal tastes, though I do suggest trying this to enjoy your femininity with a new confidence.

I needed a new perfume because my absolute favourite is flowerbomb but it's quite pricey. I tried this one in a chemist and the purchased it though strawberry net when they had a sale. It's a lovely feminine scent and I suppose similar to flowerbomb but definitly its own smell. I feel very sophisticated and feminine wearing it. Love the bottle although it's a dressing table bottle not one for the handbag as the lid comes off easily. Highly recommend.

I received this as a birthday present and it quickly become the only perfume I ever wear. I have purchased it again and again despite the hefty price tag because i can't imagine wearing anything else. Scents are hard to describe but its sweet with a touch of vanilla but at the same time its very sophisticated and feminine. Its so versatile - great for any age and to use all year around. If you are on the look out for a new perfume i highly recommend trying it out!
