Christian Lacroix C'est La Fête! is a sweet, fruity-floral fragrance with a citrus lift, made for women and now discontinued. Its longevity and sillage are both moderate, neither fleeting nor heavy, though only a small number of voters have rated them, so treat these as a rough guide. It has a slightly synthetic sheen and reads clearly as a feminine scent. It opens with pear, blackcurrant, passion fruit and apricot, a juicy burst of fruit. At the heart, jasmine, rose, orchid and vanilla bring in the floral side and sweeten it. Musk and sandalwood sit underneath as a soft base.
