The Story

La Vie Est Belle L’Absolu by Lancôme was launched in 2014 and created by perfumers Anne Flipo and Dominique Ropion. This fragrance is a Floral Fruity Gourmand composition that opens with the sweetness of black currant and pear, leading to a heart of iris, orange blossom, damask rose, and jasmine. The base notes of praline, cashmere wood, vanilla, and tonka bean create a warm and comforting finish. This scent is an ode to the joy found in simple pleasures — like biting into a ripe black currant or savoring a slice of freshly baked cake.

Application Tips

Apply this fragrance to pulse points for a gentle, lingering effect. The praline note fades quickly, so layering it with the cashmere wood base will ensure that the warmth lingers throughout the day.
