People say they get stopped in the street and complimented by strangers because of a Boots perfume. Now might be the perfect time to join the legion of fans behind this scent, as it’s currently part of a deal that’s too good to miss.
Shoppers can secure a serious bargain at the high street store with the typically pricey Lancôme La Vie Est Belle Rose Extraordinaire Eau de Parfum now on sale for far less. It is one of the few perfumes that Boots slashed in price due to a major sale.
Usually commanding a three-figure sum, the retailer has halved the cost of the 50ml bottle from £105 to £52.50. And for those devoted to making this their signature scent, the bigger 100ml bottle has been discounted too from its regular price of £140 to £112.
The deal presents the perfect opportunity for buyers to stock up or perhaps tuck a bottle away for special occasions like Mother’s Day. Portrayed online as a floral “masterpiece” this perfume boasts a trio of rose extracts blended into a singularly potent fragrance, known for its “sensual opulence”.
Backed by an impressive 4.8-star rating across over 1600 reviews, the Lancôme La Vie Est Belle Rose Extraordinaire Eau de Parfum has captivated many, reports the Mirror. One reviewer said: “Simply irresistible! I cannot believe I’ll use anything else since I tried this eau de parfum!”
And they weren’t alone, as another added: “Very fresh but dominant fragrance that I love wearing. Endless compliments!” A third wrote: “The nicest perfume I have come across in almost 20 years, it is STUNNING! I get stopped by strangers asking what perfume I’m wearing!”
Someone else posted: “I’ve been using Lancôme perfume for many years, and it’s truly a timeless favourite.” A fifth shopper shared: “The scent is elegant and beautifully balanced – it’s not too overpowering but lasts all day.”
One more added: “This is my scent! It’s taken me years to find it and this is perfect!” They added: “If you want a sexy sweet rose scent, this is best in the whole game!”
However, some shoppers were less satisfied. A disgruntled buyer lamented the purchase, sharing: “Smells good but it does not last more than 20mins. I wanted to love it but I have had to return it.”
A different customer left a precautionary note: “The only thing nice about this perfume is the beautiful bottle. I was looking forward to a delicate rose scent and this did not deliver. It’s horribly sweet smelling and did not smell like roses at all. It gave me a massive headache.”
Boots shoppers can find the perfect perfume for them based on some of their favourite scents using their Fragrance Finder tool online. You can search through specific brands or, if you want to try something new, you can select your personal favourite scent ingredients such as fruits, flowers and woods.
For those still on the hunt for their ideal floral fragrance, there’s no shortage of alternatives on the market. Shopping around can also unearth similar terrific deals. Debenhams, for example, has an offer where shoppers can snag Prada’s Paradoxe Eau De Parfum at a reduced rate. A 30ml bottle is priced at £57.60 rather than its standard £72.
