Gourmand fragrances

Gourmand fragrances are not gender-specific. Warm vanilla and caramel notes in a musk or amber base create universally wearable scents. Browse the La Vie Est Belle fragrance collection to experience Lancôme's most iconic floral-gourmand hybrid, which appeals across genders and ages. The key is finding the right concentration of sweetness in relation to the woody or musky base.

Gourmand fragrances traditionally perform better in cooler months, as heat amplifies sweetness. In summer, opt for lighter concentrations or apply fewer sprays. La Vie Est Belle Vanille Nude, with its musky-vanilla structure, is more versatile across the seasons. Discover how to find your signature scent to identify which gourmand format suits your preferred season and occasion.

La Vie Est Belle is technically a floral-gourmand hybrid. Its heart is built around iris, a floral note, while its base features vanilla, praline and patchouli, gourmand notes. This hybrid structure gives it broad appeal: sweet and warm without being overly edible-sweet, and floral without being a pure bouquet. The Lancôme personalised engraving service makes La Vie Est Belle one of the most customisable fragrance gifts available within this gourmand-floral category.
