What do reviewers say about Lily Essence and La Vie Est Belle?
A powdery white floral with genuine structure. The fruit opening is warm, the floral heart is lush, the drydown is comforting without being heavy. Some find the powder too much.Lily Essence
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
