Didn’t click for me—not because it’s bad (it’s top tier), just not my style. I was hooked on the praline and almond notes, but the patchouli and iris aren’t for me. No drama though; I’m gifting it because it smells great.

If the patchouli in the original kills you, you might fall in love here since it’s much toned down. It smells like La Vie Est Belle but doesn’t project as well and doesn’t last as long. If you’re not buying the original for the price, this is a top option. That said, I recommend Arab perfumes that already released dupes or near-identical copies. It’s super cheap. Lasts max 3 hours on skin, but you can reapply since it won’t hurt your wallet at that price.

Good fragrance, feels more youthful than LVEB. Lasts about 3 hours, you won’t notice it too much, but for this price, it’s not bad 🙂

It’s a fresh, youthful scent, better than the old version. You might not notice it much, but it lasts about 3 hours; for the price, it’s not bad.

The longevity is brutal, over 12 hours right on the skin. The price of 5.95 at DM in Germany is insane. Another gem from the La Rive brand.

Not exact to La Vie Est Belle but incredibly similar. Lasts excellently with moderate sillage. To me, it’s more wearable than LVEB, especially for work or indoor settings. Doesn’t smell synthetic at all. It’s delicious to me, and I’ll buy it again if they don’t discontinue it. Another low-cost marvel from La Rive.

I love it, I wouldn’t trade it for anything. I really identify with it. It’s sweet, tolerable in hot weather, and delicious. Honestly, it’s very similar to La Vie Est Belle.

YouTube says it’s a 90% dupe of Lancome’s La Vie Est Belle, Uhmmmm….. we’ll have to try it, plus it’s super cheap…….. the issue is it’s only available on eBay. If I manage to get one, I’ll let you know again… 🙂
