What do reviewers say about Sparkle and La Vie Est Belle?
Kate Spade Sparkle doesn't make you choose between sweet and sharp. The blackcurrant opens like a question, the crème brûlée finishes like the answer.Sparkle
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
