    What do reviewers say about Christian Lacroix Bijou and La Vie Est Belle?

    The star anise isn't loud, but it's doing the work. Keeps the vanilla from going too sweet, adds quiet complexity. Gourmand gone grown-up, not boring, just honest. Moderate projection, true to itself.Christian Lacroix Bijou
    This is the scent you wear when you want to smell approachable yet put-tog ether. It's sweet without being immature, floral without being stuffy, and the patchouli in the drydown gives it just enough.La Vie Est Belle
