La Vie est Belle L'Elixir is Lancôme's 2024 elixir concentration for women, composed by Christophe Raynaud and Antoine Maisondieu. Unusually, every description carries equal weight: gourmand, green, woody, floral, leathery and citrusy all at once, which points to a scent with several distinct layers.

It opens with raspberry, a liquor note and Calabrian bergamot, so the first impression is fruity and boozy with a citrus lift. The heart pairs rose with violet leaf, the latter bringing a green, slightly metallic freshness that cuts through the sweetness. The base is where the depth lies: cacao butter gives a rich, fatty chocolate warmth, leather a smooth, dark edge, and cedar a dry wood that keeps the whole from becoming too soft.

Longevity divides between long lasting and moderate. Sillage is moderate for most, strong for about a third. It is voted equally for autumn and winter and slightly more for night, which suits a warm, layered scent for cooler evenings.
