The review
Worth a try. That is where La Vie Est Belle lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to La Vie Est Belle.
Oil Perfumery sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is La Vie Est Belle's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $133 per 100ml it costs 50% less than La Vie Est Belle — the 11th cheapest of 11 twins we can price.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Oil Perfumery publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
