My very favourite version is a discontinued one from 2017, the Intense version which had added hazelnut, tuberose and whipped cream. It was a more gourmand version and is stunning! Also worth noting that the original has been reformulated since 2020 and they made the Patchouli less strong and also removed the Praline. It's still gorgeous but it's almost like a different flanker. So for those that thought the original was too strong or too much, they might be able to appreciate it now.
Yes the og intense version smells phenomenally amazing. Love it... and about the og edp, i do notice its smell too. It still very strong & heavy tho but not as rich as before...
I used to hate the original but this past year my coworker wore it and it smelled so nice on her... few weeks ago I finally got myself a bottle, it's beautiful lol I plan on getting Soleil cristal, l'eclat, intensement, and the intense if I can find it 😅
Omg Soki, I've only just found you and already we agree on so many perfumes! Soleil Crystal is definitely the superior version and one that I cannot get enough during the summer months...
I have a few from the range. My favourite is Oui La Vie Est Belle, followed by the Intensement and then the OG. Soleil Cristal is last on my list of the ones I've tried. The coconut is so so strong. I've figured out im not a fan of Lancome's coconut flankers.
I own six of the LVEB range😀 admittedly, most for the beautiful bottles😅 especially Soleil Crystal, just let me oogle that gorgeous irridescent bottle! My favorite most worn is LVEB En Rose. Lancome still remains my favorite fragrance house.😍
My favorite is the Soleil Crystal and I also have the L’eclat edp which I enjoy. I got the Intensement version as well but I actually really don’t care for it, it is too powdery for me.
At first, in the department store, I wasn't a fan of L'eclat EDP but once I got it home and gave it time to breathe it became my favorite !!! The orange blossom is so lovely. I do notice that finding bigger bottles of it are becoming harder to find. I hope this doesn't mean they are considering retiring it some time soon... ✌❤
My favourite at the moment is Oui La vie et belle. Can’t get enough of it. Prefer it to the original as I am not a massive fan of very vanillary perfumes.
My faves are Intensement, en Rose and Oui. I actually have gotten the most compliments wearing l’eclat EDT….not my fave, but I still enjoy it. I probably have way too many La Vie Est Belle perfumes but I just love them. ❤
I love them all but especially Intensement, Blanche and Original (got this in the limited collectors edition Version as 100ml for a Real good deal). I bought Blanche just a few weeks ago and am already sad that it is (again) discontinued, as many as others of my faves😭
My fav is the LVEB Intense launched in 2015, I have more bottles at home. I love the original as well. The Blanche is also great. I have these three. 1. Intense 2015 2. Blanche 2021 3. OG 2012
My favourites are the Intense version (not the Intensement, which ironically is fairly weak), and the original EdT- both of which are now sadly discontinued 😢The Florale flanker is also really nice. I have a bottle of the Domaine de la Rose and find it doesn’t last at all, which is very disappointing given it’s supposed to be an extrait… 🤷♀️
My favorite is Soleil Crystal as well. I fear it's being discontinued. It is currently in the Last Chance 50% off on the USA website. Idole Aura is as well
I smelled the OG on the blotter and the pear note came through as super synthetic, which turned me off. Would be interested to know how it performs on skin. I also tried the Iris Ansolu flanker and liked that one a lot better.
Thank you for your video. I have just run out of my original la vie which I loved. Have you ever come across a good dupe or should I just save up again? Sometimes I wonder if the dupes are a bit of a waste of money...
Thank you for this video, could you please tell me if you know the La Vie Est Belle L'eau eau de parfum version? I couldn't find anything about this flanker, even on Fragrantica ....
Hi!! Help! I was at Ulta and sprayed LVEB Oui, Original, and Soleil on my wrists and hand. After I left, ONE of them was perfect for me but I couldn’t remember which was which on my wrists! It was sweet and the dry down stayed sweet. The other two were warmer more powdery but that ONE was divine and I’m so sad bc idk which one it was and I don’t want to order the wrong one!😢
@@SokiLondon it was! I went back today and got it! Thank you so much! I’ve found my signature scent! Now let’s pray it doesn’t ever get discontinued! That’s always my luck lol 😂 Thanks again!
Me, till January 2023: I don't like La Vie est Belle, I don't like La Vie est Belle... And I end up with 6 flankers only for the past 4 months 😮 I have L'Éclat edt, L'Éclat edp, Iris Absolu, Soleil Cristal, Florale edt and en Rose
I really like your description of perfumes. You do it for so many years, BUT...can't you learn to pronounce the name French original way! It is not so difficult at all. It really cuts the ears to hear what you say!
Hi Soki!Thank you so much for the beautiful video.I have checked on Fragrantica the new limited edition La vie est belle l.'Éveil has some different notes comparing to the original one..What is your opinion about it?Is it something little bit different and new?Thank you! 🤍🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
