What does La Vie en Fleurs (2021) smell like?

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, with fall close behind. It is chosen mostly for leisure, daily wear and the office, and less for evenings or nights out. Voters mostly read it as feminine, though a fair share call it classic.

Mandarin orange and sweet, fruity raspberry come first. Violet, peony and rose then form a floral heart. In the base, iris, white musk and heliotrope settle it into a powdery, creamy warmth. Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle Lipstick Rose and Guerlain French Kiss have a close profile.
