What do reviewers say about La Vie Est Belle and Romance Be Mine?
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
Some fragrances corner the market on drama. This one corners the market on sincerity, powdery, soft, the floral equivalent of a handwritten note. It won't stop traffic, but it might stop a heart.Romance Be Mine
