Ch Carolina Herrera Cologne 100 ml EDT Spray (Tester) For Men

There's just something about perfume that makes me happy. I don't know about you, but it brightens my mood and makes me feel positive emotions. I absolutely LOVE adding to my fragrance collection and am sending away for free samples what seems like constantly. I also ended up buying myself a "12 Days of Beauty" Advent Calendar from Macy's this year as a treat for myself, and of course I've already torn that baby open. One of the treasures inside was an adorable miniature glass bottle of Lancôme's La Vie Est Belle Eau de Parfum. This perfume is super popular right now. It seems like every time I'm on the internet or open a magazine I see an advertisement for it, and now I can see why. It smells fabulous!

One of the treasures inside was an adorable miniature glass bottle of Lancôme's La Vie Est Belle Eau de Parfum. This perfume is super popular right now. It seems like every time I'm on the internet or open a magazine I see an advertisement for it, and now I can see why. It smells fabulous! The first thing that I pick up on when I smell it is the patchouli. I LOVE fragrances with patchouli in them. I think that it adds something special to them. This perfume has a wonderful warm, kind of spicy floral scent to it that just works. I can also smell the vanilla in this scent and it's yummy! It has a pretty good range, you can smell it from a good distance. It has great staying power too, and lasts most of the day. This fragrance makes me feel beautiful when I wear it, ultra-feminine, and sophisticated. This is easily one of my more favorite fragrances that I've tried lately, which honestly surprised me. I really wasn't expecting much from this perfume because it was from Lancôme, a makeup/skincare retailer, not a perfumer. It smells fantastic though, and I really can't say enough good things about it! It's from the Warm Spicy Fragrance Family, and is the Warm Sweet Gourmand Scent Type. The Key Notes are: Iris, patchouli, and vanilla. This floral perfume entwines iris, patchouli and Arabian jasmine sambac with sweet notes of orange blossom, warm vanilla, and spun sugar. A modern interpretation of a warm floral, this long-lasting women's fragrance stands out with a twist of gourmand, unique to its vanilla perfume base. Brought to life with the expression of Julia Roberts' iconic smile, the luxe fragrance bottle captures the essence of happiness in the shape of a smile formed at the base, showcasing the floral women's scent within. "La Vie Est Belle", French for "life is beautiful", is about choosing your own path to happiness. Inspired by this expression, La Vie Est Belle is an energizing perfume for women who seek happiness and aim to inspire others. If you haven't checked this special fragrance out already, I highly recommend doing so. It smells absolutely incredible and actually makes me feel happier when I wear it. I feel brighter, happier, and definitely a lot sexier. I'm so happy that I now own this miniature bottle, and I know what I'm adding to my Christmas list this year, for sure!

So I’m a heavy scent lover. I love a good beast mode fragrance that lasts all day, to where I don’t have to reapply at all. Those are few and far in between, but I’m a sucker for them. Ulta had a sale going on with fragrance, and they had the Lancôme “La Vie Est Belle” perfume half off, so I went and got me a bottle. This was my first time ever purchasing this fragrance and I don’t regret it at all! I usually lean towards more deeper, smokier, woody, gourmand, sweet, and seductive scents. La vie est belle is not a scent I typically go for, but I’m glad I did. This fragrance is a very classy and very girly fragrance. I’m not saying it’s for younger girls, but definitely for a more mature classy woman. This scent got me compliments the first day I wore it out. I’m ... MoreSo I’m a heavy scent lover.

La vie est belle is not a scent I typically go for, but I’m glad I did. This fragrance is a very classy and very girly fragrance. I’m not saying it’s for younger girls, but definitely for a more mature classy woman. This scent got me compliments the first day I wore it out. I’m also a heavy sprayer as wel, but this scent will last on clothes for 8-10 hours . I was really impressed with the staying power of this partum! The bottle and packaging is super pretty , and I love the little bow tied around the bottle for that super classy touch. This scent is not sweet in my opinion. I smell the patchouli and orange blossom the most, and they pair perfectly. The dry down is beautiful as well. This is a crisp classy scent for a woman who takes excellent care of herself. I highly recommend this, and who cares if everyone wears it?! Everyone has different body chemistry as well, and as we all know body chemistry plays a huge part in how a fragrance smells and lasts on you as well. Longevity is wonderful. I would say this perfume is more on the clean airy side, but still a very pretty fragrance.

When I bought this, I was expecting a very feminine + sweet, long lasting scent, however that isn’t what this is. Long lasting, yes. Everything else for the better part of the time, no. Upon first spritz, it’s extremely powdery, citrusy, sharp, green, and mature. It tones down a bit after dry down, but remains that scent for a good few hours, then finally, you get to that luscious, vanilla, sweet and sugary feminine scent. That sweetness remains strong for 2 hours and then becomes a skin scent, and remains that way for another 5 hours. This perfume does last well, and you can get a good 8 hours of strong wear, so if you like the beginning scent, but eventually want something more sweet and soft, I would definitely recommend. However for me, this is a hard no. I ... MoreWhen I bought this, I was expecting a very feminine + sweet, long lasting scent, however that isn’t what this is. Long lasting, yes.

However for me, this is a hard no. I don’t even dislike florals, this was just so powdery, strong,and citrusy in a way that I couldn’t even try to make myself believe was high-class feminineness. 10/10 if you like the scent But this was marketed to me as a soft feminine scent fit for a kindergarten teacher, but had a kick to it, and that is definitely not this, so this for me is a 4/10.

At long last, I am finally trying the “life is beautiful” iconic fragrance from Lancôme’s impressive line of perfumes. I had smelled this a number of times from magazine inserts, but truly nothing compares to the fresh liquid fragrance as it meets your skin and transforms with your chemistry. One thing Lancôme does best is the gourmand fragrance. The showstopper of this perfume is the sweet gourmand base, incorporating the addictive scent of spun sugar melted in the warmth of vanilla. The dry down is an enriching olfactory experience that seems to get better with each passing breath. Spraying this on my inner wrists, I am transcended to a delicious moment - like the first lick of a vanilla ice cream cone, or that olfactory sugar rush from the scent of oven baked ... MoreAt long last, I am finally trying the “life is beautiful” iconic fragrance from Lancôme’s impressive line of perfumes.

The floral top note of precious iris awakens the feminine spirit with a blooming springtime freshness, whilst the grounding earthy note of patchouli balances the fragrance and softens the landing for the delectable gourmand base. The bottle is described by Lancôme as “The Crystal Smile,” and I can see why. Placing this gorgeous glass vessel on the vanity is a constant reminder of all things opulent in your life and experience - a constant smile of good fortune and timeless beauty. In a nutshell? I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of smelling this fragrance. Life really is beautiful with La Vie Est Belle eau de parfum.

This is the very first scent that I have ever purchased without trying it first. It was a leap of faith worth taking and I love this perfume. I truly enjoy perfume and have tried many different perfumes from many different categories and have found it very hard to settle on one that I really adore. I used to have a signature fragrance which I grew out of and I have been searching for a replacement for years now. La Vie Est Belle stands out as the most outstanding perfume I have tried, my favorite all time scent. This is the very first scent I have felt compelled to write a review about.

I truly enjoy perfume and have tried many different perfumes from many different categories and have found it very hard to settle on one that I really adore. I used to have a signature fragrance which I grew out of and I have been searching for a replacement for years now. La Vie Est Belle stands out as the most outstanding perfume I have tried, my favorite all time scent. This is the very first scent I have felt compelled to write a review about. It is a deep scent with many layers, so unique if you are one who notices the beautiful details in life. I have never smelled a perfume that subtly changed so much over the hours of wearing it. It has many different facets between hints of flowers, hints of fruit, hints of patchouli with the base being vanilla which continues throughout. The sweetness of praline and tonka bean just assist the vanilla scent but do not overpower the fragrance because the other notes balance the sweet base. Vanilla is definitely the main contributor to this scent. Yet it is not a sickeningly sweet scent- the vanilla that continues throughout is gentle and soft and the other notes ease the sweetness, making it very well balanced. It is not too sweet and the gourmand qualities are far from overpowering. This is the most delicate use of gourmand- made to increase the warmth of the scent, but not to overpower it. This scent blends with your skin to make it unique to you and does not simply sit on the surface. Yet this scent has staying power and it's wonderful to smell the multidimensional changes of the various notes over the hours. I cannot ever picture getting bored with this scent. It is complex and has such a unique composition of notes which are subtly detectable through the hours of wearing it, making this perfume completely different from any other perfume I've ever worn. If you are someone who notices the small but beautiful things in life, you will be able to detect the unique and subtle changes in the scent over the 10+ hours of wear you will get out of this perfume. I feel like a woman with a beautiful warm sensual scent to complement my radiant smile when wearing this perfume... and yes this scent does make me smile. I have never had a perfume that actually brought a smile to my face before, but this one does. I feel free, happy and beautiful when wearing it, enhancing my love for life. Indeed the saying "Life Is Beautiful" really does describe this fragrance. The bottle too. All of the marketing is completely on track with what is in the bottle. Beautiful overall, truly beautiful. Thanks to Lancome and the three master perfumers who have highlighted the beauty of each of the special notes in this perfume and reminded us of the gift of scent. What a stunning reminder of the beauty of the small things in life- those things which really make life even more beautiful. La vie est belle!!

My first impression is: HUH? WHY IS IT DELICIOUS?! Yup, I always avoid trying this perfume because all reviews say that this is too ‘sweet’ perfume. I thought it would be a sweet gourmand that makes you dizzy and want to puke, but I don't expect that it's a soft sweet one that's really delicious! At first it was fruity that is fresh, from here I already liked it. And what’s more is the middle note is floral! What I love is specially during the dry down: sweet chocolate that you want to eat with vanilla mixture, so it's really delicious🥹🥹 I DIDN’T KNOW IF THIS IS REALLY GOOD AND FRIENDLY TO MY NOSE. I feel sad that I just knew now. The SPL (sillage, projection, longevity) is also good. Should I buy the full size? (I have too many perfume wishlist🥲 But it won’t be ... MoreMy first impression is: HUH? WHY IS IT DELICIOUS?!

La vie est belle is a sweet, vanilla, fruity, woody and earthy, powdery and warm spicy scent. Let's start by talking about the olfactory pyramid: as opening notes we have black currant and pear, then we move on to the central notes with iris, jasmine and orange blossom, and then finish with the base notes with praline, vanilla, patchouli and tonka bean. I have many perfumes, a beautiful collection where La Vie Est Belle by Lancome is not lacking, a perfume with warm and enveloping notes, and although several years have passed since its launch on the market, it remains the perfume that I adore. It is very intense, just a few sprays are enough to be enveloped in this wonderful fragrance. It has excellent persistence and, as I like it, leaves a trail.
