The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2018, La Vie Est Belle Flowers of Happiness by Lancôme is a floral fruity fragrance that captures the essence of joy and happiness. Created by perfumers Anne Flipo, Dominique Ropion, Domitille Michalon Bertier, and Fanny Bal, this composition opens with fresh pear and bergamot, leading to a heart of peony, rose, jasmine, and lily-of-the-valley. The base notes of musk and sandalwood provide warmth and depth, creating a scent that feels both uplifting and comforting.
Apply this fragrance in light sprays to allow its layers to unfold gradually. The top notes are bright and fresh, while the base notes provide a warm, lasting presence that works well for daytime wear.
