This autumn, Lancôme presents *La vie est belle Very Cherry*, an Eau de Parfum that breaks away from the classic interpretation of the cherry note. Drawing on the expertise and creativity of master perfumers Antoine Maisondieu and Christophe Raynaud, a new interpretation of cherry emerges—featuring a surprisingly woody element.
By combining a dark cherry accord with radiant violet leaf absolute and an oud wood accord, the fragrance achieves a modern gourmand signature that is as refined as it is unique. Here, the fruity intensity of dark cherry meets elegance and velvety depth, making the scent irresistible.
*La vie est belle Very Cherry* is dedicated to all women who do not follow a script but write their own stories—unfiltered, bold, and free. The fragrance celebrates the diversity and multifaceted nature of women, as well as the happiness found in consciously savoring the moment.
An intense fragrance composition balancing sensuality and depth
For *La vie est belle Very Cherry*, Lancôme plays with the fruitiness of cherry, showcasing it through unexpected combinations.
In the top notes, the dark cherry accord unfolds upon the first spray, revealing an ultra-sensual intensity.
At the heart, this fruity depth merges with velvety, floral violet leaf absolute. The composition is further enriched by the bitter-chocolate nuances of cocoa bean and lush rose absolute.
Finally, the base notes unfold with bold sensuality. A warm, elegant oud accord
evokes a powerful femininity, artfully interwoven with benzoin resin and a musk
accord.
An icon featuring a new design of contrasts
Just as La Vie Est Belle Very Cherry celebrates the many facets of femininity, the fragrance’s
bottle is an embodiment of contrasts. Designed by renowned glass artist Susan Dalton,
the bottle captivates with its clean lines and sensual curves. The iconic „crystal
smile“ of the classic La Vie Est Belle is artfully crafted into the glass.
For this edition, the bottle features a dark cherry-red gradient. This deep
hue contrasts with the shimmering, cherry-colored crêpe wings at the bottle’s neck,
perfectly capturing the fragrance’s fascinating interplay of mystery and lightness.
