I love perfume and it's the one thing i very rarely buy for myself, so when Christmas time comes around i know that it's one gift i am always guaranteed. This year i received Lancome's La vie est belle from my kind brother and his fiance so thank you very much! I was truly over the moon when i opened this as i have been longing to have my own bottle after i had a sample of it, and it instantly became a favorite.
First of all the packaging of the box is absolutely my favorite and will not be thrown it away! It has rose gold around the outer edging and a rough sparkly texture on the front and back, it sits on my dressing table glistening away and i love it! All this excitement over a box! Lets talk about the perfume itself shall we?
La vie est belle 30ml £42
The bottle itself is slim and clear which houses a pinkish liquid scent of yumminess, i also love the little grey/silverish ribbon just makes it look so cute. Now you know i am hopeless at describing scents but this to me smells sweet and fruity and that is my most favorite scent in a perfume.
A better description of La vie est belle
La vie est belle is a French expression meaning life is beautiful. A philosophy of life and happiness or universal declaration to the beauty of life. An Eau de Parfum with the noblest ingredients (Concrete of Iris Pallida, Jasmin Sambac, Absolute Orange Blossom & Absolute Patchouli Essence)...lain on a bed of fine delicacies.
I have had so many compliments when i have worn this perfume and it always gets compared with Thierry Mugler's Angel which i wasn't a big fan of which is strange as they do smell similar! I will have to go and smell that one again! I can see myself wearing this throughout the year, definitely my new favourite!
