I often get stopped at the fragrance corners of retail stores - to try out a new fragrance or a fragrance on promotion. I don't always remember those times except for the first time I was asked to try out Lancome La Vie Est Belle. It was a few years back yet I still remember exactly where I was at the time - Woolworths store in Gateway.

The smell was amazing! I made sure to get the full name of the fragrance. I didn't purchase right away because I was not sure how long-lasting it was. Well, I was pleasantly surprised since the fragrance lasted many hours.

I have never used another perfume since. I still get compliments about how lovely I smell :D.

My absolute favourite fragrance

Always a winner with this one!. The floral scents! Everyone will stop you and ask you what are you wearing! I love this perfume!

I must admit that I have never experienced Lancome fragrance before and received a sample as 'a gift with purchase offer'. When I was at the airport and a gorgeous man stopped me in my tracks to ask what perfume I was wearing, I knew that La Vie Est Belle was my signature scent. I rushed off to get myself a bottle and the rest is beautiful history. The bottle is stunning but the perfume is even more alluring with its beautiful top notes. To me it captures how a woman ought to smell and the scent is like no other! Life is truly beautiful with this beautiful perfume!

The concept of this fragrance is centered on the idea of natural and simple beauty, freedom from conventions and the choice of once own vision of happiness. Its fresh, clean and incredibly feminine. It's a sweet, fruity fragrance with with hints of vanilla.

Beautifully packaged and its PINK! Super cute.

Julia Roberts is the celebrity face of this fragrance and La Vie Est Belle means "Life is Beautiful" in French.

Happiness in a pretty spray bottle.

R999 for a bottle of 75ml spray available at all cosmetic and beauty outlets.
