What does La Vie est Belle L'Éveil smell like?

It opens with Iris pallida concrete beside gourmand notes, so the scent starts sweet and creamy. In the heart, jasmine sambac absolute and orange blossom absolute carry the floral side; patchouli and vanilla in the base soften everything into a warm, powdery finish, with a fruity touch running through.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Voters spread it almost evenly across daily wear, leisure, business, evenings and nights out. Lancôme La Vie est Belle L'Eau de Parfum Légère and Elie Saab Girl of Now Shine have a close profile.
