Which Should You Buy?
If the original La Vie Est Belle was a bit too much for you, this 'Sparkling Edition' offers a softer, more subtle take, but don't expect it to blow your socks off with projection. It's a toned-down crowd-pleaser that sits closer to the skin.
A bubbly iris and sweet opening, orange blossom and jasmine sambac, then a rich vanilla and patchouli base. Oakcha's take on Lancôme La Vie Est Belle Sparkling Edition, and a cheerful dressed-up scent.

Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Built on white floral, sweet and vanilla - a composition that sits best in spring, autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its softer projection and less overwhelming sweetness compared to its predecessor make it suitable for office wear and casual settings without being intrusive. While pleasant for a date, its reduced impact might not make a strong enough impression for more formal events.
Seasons
Vanilla and patchouli suit the cooler months, and the orange blossom and iris give a lift that keeps it wearable in spring.
Occasions
It is polished and festive, so it suits weddings, dates and celebrations, and it is soft enough for the office on a bright day.
