Scent profiles of the picks

For Lancôme La Vie Est Belle (Eau de Parfum, 2012), expect sweet pear and blackcurrant wrapped in vanilla: blackcurrant and pear up top, praliné, patchouli and tonka bean underneath. Lancôme Idôle (Eau de Parfum Intense, 2019) comes across as fresh pear and rose powder with soft vanilla-cedar, with pear and Italian bergamot at the start and Bourbon vanilla, Indonesian patchouli and Texas cedar at the base. Lancôme La Nuit Trésor (Eau de Parfum, 2015) reads as warm caramel coffee with ripe strawberry fruit, opening on pear and tangerine and drying down to praline, caramel and vanilla.
