Lancôme La Vie Est Belle Intensément Eau de Parfum 100ml Spray Makeup Brush longer if you catch it

longer if you catch it on your shirt cuff

It's a daytime fragrance that doesn't apologise for being cheerful — the kind of thing you'd reach for on mornings when the mood needs lifting

Dark woods and leather dominate — that low

with a backbone of vanilla and amber

Two to three sprays is the sensible amount — it's bold enough that restraint works in your favour

Lancôme La Vie Est Belle Intensément Eau de Parfum 100ml Spray Makeup Brush longer if you catch itIntensment is the concentrated version patchouli and almond absolute at the front, iris and vanilla in the middle, and a woody amber base that sits closer to skin than projection. If you already know La Vie Est Belle, this one goes deeper and stays longer. 100ml EDP. Three sprays hold for six to eight hours on skin, longer on fabric. Skip if you're after something subtle; lean in if you want to be the only person in the room who smells like this.
