OPULENCE: YOU OWN EVERYTHING!
In my opinion, this flanker stands out as the best fragrance in the La Vie Est Belle lineup.

I initially enjoyed the first formulation of original La Vie Est Belle; it had a captivating smoky chocolate scent upon its release. However, over time, I couldn't discern if I grew accustomed to it or if they altered the formula. Subsequently, all I could detect was a chaotic blend of fruity and sugary notes. However, La Vie est Belle Iris Absolu flanker is exceptional.

Delightful milky chocolate with woody hazelnut undertones and patchouli. The iris introduces a slightly powdery element, with rooty vegetable facets in the opening and a dry down resembling expensive cosmetics. The black currant note is jammy and velvety.

The bottle has a pleasing weight to it, and the scent is OPULENT, darling!

Not as nice as I hoped
I was so excited about this one! It's okay. I was hoping for a voluptuous LVEB Lipstick scent, but what I got was a very tame LVEB. It's fine, I'm just a little disappointed in it.

It has a fruity opening, which I guess is fig, and is the most interesting part of it. I don't really get much iris compared to the original, which is odd. It's sweet throughout, smells like LVEB, only less polarizing, less strong, less projecting. If I really focus, I can catch a whiff of iris.

Maybe I'm spoiled by the new Shalimar Millésime Iris exceeding my expectations that I thought I could get lucky with another iris offering.

Powdery Iris
I was never a fan of the original perfume, but I do enjoy this version of La Vie est Belle.

I smell Iris first, and the projection is good. The scent trails behind me when I walk according to my family. In comes a powdery creaminess that is much softer and still quite lovely. I pick up a vanilla that’s not in the scent notes.

I never noticed the jasmine sambac, but it does register as “milky” to some degree even though that’s a hard note to describe. It’s very well blended together.

In all, I’m not sure if I’d buy a large bottle of it, but it is enjoyable.

A lighter LVEB with a lipstick note that becomes more prominent over time. Lasts and projects all day and then some.
