  1. My partner’s sense of smell likes it and it definitely reminds him of La Vie Est Belle. Suitable for any weather, though the scent becomes more noticeable in the heat (or perhaps it’s just my body). It’s a lovely fragrance.

  2. The male scent approves and it does sound like La Vie Est Belle. Suitable for any weather, though the heat makes the fragrance more noticeable (or perhaps it’s just my body); it’s a lovely aroma.

  3. It smells more like Bodycology’s Pink Vanilla Wish body mist. It’s a slightly loud scent, not for everyone, but if you like sweet aromas and are a fan of La Vie Est Belle, go for it—it’s a safe purchase.

  5. The aroma of this body mist is identical to the classic La Vie Est Belle. The longevity is decent, lasting about four hours, so it’s worth it if you don’t already own the perfume.
