About the Fragrance
Created by Edouard Fléchier, C’est La Vie! mirrors the exuberance of Christian Lacroix’s fashion: colourful, intricate and unapologetically expressive. Its bright aldehydic opening is layered with peach, pineapple, raspberry and bergamot before giving way to a dense floral heart built around tuberose, carnation, ylang-ylang, orange blossom, osmanthus and jasmine. Beneath the florals, sandalwood, benzoin, amber, patchouli, vanilla, cedar and musk create a warm, softly powdery finish. Vintage reviewers frequently describe the fragrance as full-bodied and floral, with notable tuberose, carnation, aldehydes and a richer woody-balsamic drydown.
