Lancome Oui La Vie Est Belle Eau de Parfum Review
Fans of Lancome fragrances listen up, Lancome is celebrating the 10 year anniversary of their iconic La Vie Est Belle scent in a big way! 2022 marks the exciting launch of Oui La Vie Est Belle, a fruity floral fragrance that is similar but oh-so-sweetly different to the adored original Lancome La Vie Est Belle.
From the stunning bottle to the utterly delicious buttery iris scent inside, the sensuous sweet warmth and iconic gourmand feel of Oui La Vie Est Belle is a real showstopper. Read on to hear how the fragrance captivates the senses…
This Fragrance Smells Like…
Opening with a zesty floral flare, Damascena rose meets sharp bergamot and sweet raspberry and – completed by the first sign of warmth in the fragrance – pink pepper. The fruity-floral opening cascades into the beautiful heart of ylang-ylang and black cherry, a rolling tide of natural sweetness that feels instantly sensuous yet soothing. Finally, the base adds a luminous floral sweetness from the iris that uplifts the initial rosiness found in the opening notes. Then the patchouli adds a rich sweet depth with a slight spiciness, completed by sweet almond milk to add to the natural almost earthy base that allows the fruit and florals to sparkle and deliver different waves of creamy sweet tones.
What’s The Story Behind This Scent?
Epitomised in the name ‘oui’ meaning ‘yes’, in French, Lancome Oui La Vie Est Belle celebrates the joy of grabbing every opportunity and savouring different moments in your life. The finest ingredients have been used to create the fragrance, designed to live with women experiencing joy in every possible moment.
You Will Love This If…
If you love sweet rich scents and sophisticated florals, you will love the enchanting sweetness of Lancome Oui La Vie Est Belle. Fans of the original La Vie Est Belle will recognise the gourmand signature in Oui with a new fruity-floral twist.
This Perfume Smells Similar To:
The rich patchouli and almond base of Oui is a nostalgic nod to the original La Vie Est Belle fragrance, creating the same gourmand feel. Oui has the added zesty fruits and delicate rose to emphasise the stunning iris flower and make Oui unique without forgetting the original as inspiration.
Is Lancome Oui La Vie Est Belle Unisex?
The floral and fruity elements of Lancome Oui La Vie Est Belle make it a traditionally feminine fragrance, alongside the pink and gold design. However here at Escentual we believe anyone can enjoy any fragrance so if you love sweet florals, then Oui is perfect for you!
What’s The Longevity Like?
The creamy sweetness almost melts into the skin, lasting for 6 hours with impressive sillage.
What’s Special About The Bottle?
The iconic crystal glass flacon of the original La Vie Est Belle is back but with an added sparkly twist: a gold firework design explodes across the bottle, the shimmering gold adding texture and artistic flare, topped off by the signature Lancome ribbon at the stopper. The outer carton is a beautiful rose gold with the fragrance name written in brail down the side and a textured glitter design, so everyone can experience the full beauty of the scent.
