Lancome La Vie Est Belle Rose Extraordinaire ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 31 January 2024 2 Comments

Lancôme has launched La Vie Est Belle Rose Extraordinaire, a new flanker to 2012's La Vie Est Belle.

La Vie Est Belle Rose Extraordinaire is a reinterpretation of the rose, Lancôme's iconic flower. The new floral Eau de Parfum is composed of a heart built around Iris Concrete and three different rose extracts: fresh rose water, sensual damascena absolue and space rose accord. Its floral heart is enhanced by an enveloping signature with woody musk undertones.

[...] The iconic smile of La Vie Est Belle is reinvented by the renowned artist Catherine Krunas, making way for a sculpted rose at the heart of the bottle. Each petal pays tribute to all the facets of women. In the hands of three French master perfumers in pursuit of the perfect rose, La Vie Est Belle Rose Extraordinaire emerges as a modern interpretation of the iconic flower of perfumery.

'La Vie Est Belle Rose Extraordinaire is a modern interpretation of the Rose, the iconic flower of perfumery,' as beautifully put by Anne Flippo [sic], perfumer. It's a testament to the dedication and artistry of those who crafted this extraordinary fragrance.

Additional notes include bergamot, orange and green stem accord.

Lancôme La Vie Est Belle Rose Extraordinaire is available in 30, 50 and 100 ml Eau de Parfum Florale.

    Not a fan of this line, but that bottle….I have to see what it looks like in real life, but I’m loving the sculpted rose petals. Wow.

      They have done some really nice bottles for LVeB…this one is awfully pretty! But not my favorite.
