La Vie est Belle L'Eclat

As if to echo this sublime gown, at once chic, fairy-tale-like and exceedingly elegant, Lancôme decided to create a new flanker of its perfume. Lancôme's new essence is called La Vie Est Belle L'Eclat and it too wears a new, particularly sparkling crystal robe.

The new recipe of La Vie Est Belle L'Eclat

Since its creation in 2012, La Vie Est Belle is a perfume that has never stopped reinventing itself. It successively became an Eau de Parfum Légère in 2013, an Eau de Toilette and an Absolu de Parfum in 2014, an Eau de Parfum Intense and an Extrait in 2015, an Eau de Toilette Florale in 2016 and a Bouquet de Printemps Edition in 2017. Yet it is indeed a brand-new version that Lancôme offers with La Vie Est Belle L'Eclat. This time, the emphasis has truly been placed on freshness. La Vie Est Belle L'Eclat opens with a fresh, citrus scent of bergamot. This is a citrus fruit at the crossroads between the lemon tree and the bitter orange tree. It is both tender and slightly bitter, giving this perfume a hint of eau de Cologne. Then, the femininity of La Vie Est Belle L'Eclat comes through in its heart, in a blend of white flowers dominated by the sun-kissed presence of orange blossom. This gives the whole a more Mediterranean feel. Finally, everything softens at the base. La Vie Est Belle L'Eclat wraps itself in sandalwood. Vanilla, in turn, makes the whole more syrupy and carnal, enveloping it in an incandescent, exotic warmth.

Lancôme's flamboyant bottle

Beyond the scent of this perfume, its real novelty also lies in its bottle. Indeed, while the look of La Vie Est Belle L'Eclat is immediately recognizable, it is not without surprise either. La Vie Est Belle L'Eclat kept the shape of its predecessors. It must be said that the bottle of La Vie Est Belle is a genuine part of the heritage of the house of Lancôme. It was created in 1949 by Armand Petitjean and George Delhomme. Not having found an immediate use, it was shelved. It was only in 2012 that it was brought out of the archives to be paired with the fragrance La Vie Est Belle. It traces a wide glass smile at its base. It is strikingly reminiscent of Julia Roberts's sumptuous smile, as if this perfume were meant for her. This time, this shape is clearly highlighted through a sumptuous glasswork treatment. Lancôme added multiple facets to the surface of its bottle, so as to create numerous reflections within its juice. The whole proves more refined than ever and thus becomes akin to a sumptuous jewel.
