I live far from a large city, so I have to travel 30-45 minutes to get to a mall with a perfume bar in order to test fragrances. That would be fine–if they had any testers……And the four-letter M store hardly ever has more than a few, and nobody knows when a new supply will be coming in…..Anybody else stuck with the same situation?
So I sometimes buy online. And I took a chance on this Lancôme La Vie Est Bell perfume last week. And it is a chance, isn’t it? Because nobody has the same smeller, nor the same body and skin. So reviews hold true for some and not others. I guess that is my Disclaimer…..
One has to perceive this perfume in a different frame of mind than a less expensive perfume. Hey, I buy a lot of Snif and will continue to be a fan of that brand forever, so I feel I can say that without being condescending.
But I love rose fragrances and I really like this one. It is intriguing. It has depth, and is not light and “fresh”. It goes on spicy and floral. It loses it spiciness soon and leaves a pleasant floral scent, with some rose buried in there. After many hours there is a sweet vanilla scent that lingers lightly.
I do not find it to potent. I only need one good spritz of this to carry me through the day. I would do more on date night. If you spritz like you do for a less expensive scent, you will be overpowered by this.
RATING :⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
