La Vie Est Belle Very Cherry
Juicier black cherry meets softer, greener violet leaf and a warmer oud accord, giving brighter fruit a deeper woody outline.
Perfumer: Christophe Raynaud, Antoine Maisondieu
La Vie Est Belle Very Cherry explores freer self-expression through black cherry, softer floral texture and warmer wood. Created jointly by Antoine Maisondieu and Christophe Raynaud, this 2026 eau de parfum intense combines the brighter character of ripe fruit with violet leaf and deeper oud. It brings a darker colour to cherry’s appeal, reflecting the idea of accepting different facets of yourself through both its scent and its bottle design.
A black cherry accord offers fuller, juicier fruit sweetness with a lightly tart edge. Violet leaf absolute adds greener detail and a softer texture, while an oud accord contributes warmer woody depth. The wood surrounds the brighter cherry character, giving the fruit a more grounded outline. Fruit, leaf and wood create a textured encounter within the sweetness, for someone who wants softer flowers and deeper wood around a juicy cherry impression.
Consider it with a darker jacket or a more expressive outfit when you want a richer red-fruit accent and warmer woody character. The selected 50mL bottle follows Suzanne Dalton’s reimagining of the crystal smile. Darker cherry colour at the upper glass fades towards brighter pink below. A sparkling cherry-coloured collar and wing-like ribbon meet a square transparent cap, echoing the fragrance through darker red and lighter pink detail.
