What do reviewers say about Ambition and La Vie Est Belle?
Some fragrances announce themselves. Ambition slips in, refreshes, then quietly stays. It's the one you reach for when you want to smell good without explaining why.Ambition
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
