From Lancôme, La Vie Est Belle L'Eau de Parfum Intense is a rich, gourmand iris floral for evenings out. Pear, pink pepper and orange open it juicy and bright, with a tart edge from currant buds and bergamot. Iris and tuberose take the centre, wrapped in ylang-ylang, orange blossom and jasmine sambac for a plush white floral heart. Whipped cream and hazelnut settle underneath, giving it a creamy, nutty warmth. Released in 2015, it is worn mostly by women who like a fragrance with presence. Voters keep it for winter and autumn, mostly in the evening and at night, which suits it well for going out. Longevity leans eternal in the community vote, and sillage leans strong, so a light hand is enough. A 3ml decant is plenty for a run of dark evenings before you settle on the bottle.

The community verdict
Pear, pink pepper and currant buds begin La Vie Est Belle L'Eau de Parfum Intense before iris and tuberose give way to whipped cream and hazelnut. Staying power divides between exceptionally long-lasting and long-lasting; the largest group finds projection strong. It suits winter nights out, with autumn evenings another fit.

The house
More from Lancôme
Lancôme was founded in France in 1935 by Armand Petitjean, who named the house after Lancosme in the Indre valley. From the start the idea was beauty for women, and the perfumes still lean feminine, warm and a little romantic. Vanilla, jasmine, rose and iris run through the range, often with pear or black currant for fruit and a soft cushion of patchouli, sandalwood and musk. La Vie Est Belle is the natural opener, sweet and fruity with a vanilla finish. Miracle is brighter, floral with fresh spice and citrus. Trésor, from 1990, is fruity and powdery, a rounder, older style of floral. Anne Flipo and Dominique Ropion are among the perfumers credited on the line. Try a 3ml of two before you pick a bottle.
