I prefer the original Ma Vie and the Ma Vie Runway Edition much better than this Florale. It has much “greener”/sharper floral notes (freesia I think) and the composition is not as “smooth” as the other two. Other than that, they all smell similar at some levels as they do share the DNA. The name is spot on “floral”. I can easily skip this one.

Much more floral smelling than the original, so the name is spot on. The dry down is very Cedar and woody, and the amber gives it a small amount of warmth. Its not a bad fragrance but I much prefer the original and purchased this on accident. Its hard to differentiate the flankers but this one has roses printed in a darker blush pink on the box so I should have realized.

On initial spray I get a beautiful soft floral scent. It’s youthful and very feminine. I immediately put it on my want list and searched for it online. It loses its appeal after twenty minutes. It becomes even softer than it initially was. Well, it’s been about an hour and a half since I sprayed it and I detect nothing. I’m removing from my want list. I want something that’s gonna last longer and want that beautiful initial scent to stick.

So I purchased this because I love it and it’s perfect for the warmer weather which is approaching us! As I was sniffing my wrist today I realized that it reminded me of two perfumes!!! See by Chloe and Eternity NOW by Calvin Klein! It’s literally a hybrid of those two. When I came on here to check I see that others have listed those two as similar smelling so I knew I was on to something! Smells divine so if you like either of those you will love this!

Okay, I went back to Kohl’s to test this again. I am kind of glad that I did. This really is nothing special. YES, it is very nice, inoffensive, soft, and soapy and clean and slightly light floral smelling. BUT….I have enough fragrances like that, so this just does not seem like something I *have* to have, nor even want anymore (although if I spot this online at a good discount price, it very well may be added to my stash). But yeah, Calvin Klein Eternity Now comes to mind, and pretty much many other similar fragrances. It is quite nice, but nothing really unique or original.The bottle design also is blah..looks like, I don’t know, a room freshener bottle or a generic body mist bottle…Boring bottle, and while the scent is nice enough, all in all..kinda boring. Glad I tested this one again. It is still quite NICE, though. If I did not have similar fragrances, this would definitely have come home with me. But I just feel this is a little overpriced for what it is. If I ever see this discounted..I just might take the plunge and purchase a bottle. I do like this, even though everything about this one is so boring. Sometimes boring and safe are what you want and/or need. *shrug*

This is a fresh, zesty, soft and feminine fragrance. It smells clean and it has a light sweetness. It is similar to the original, but this one is more casual and vibrant. I still prefer the original, but this one is good too.
Test it if you’re looking for a classic spring floral, or if you’re simply looking for something elegant and crisp without citrus fruits.

ScarlettX summed this up perfectly imo.
I tested this in Kohl’s and kind of would like to get a bottle of this, but unfortunately this dissipates into nothing in less than half an hour. My skin eats this one up in no time, apparently. But I do like this so I will keep my eye out for this online at the fragrance discount sites; I would be willing to re-spritz as the day goes on at a deep discount price. But I agree with other reviews I’ve read online; this kind of unimpressive and ordinary at full retail price. But still..nice and inoffensive. Light and fresh type of scent. Kind of a generic looking bottle….Meh, maybe I am talking myself out of this one. 😉 But it is still nice. Just not good longevity…at all.

A light and quite nice clean floral scent. Mostly without sweetness. It’s good, but reminds me of some deodorant or shower gel scent. It’s just so typical somehow.
Ordinary, but wearable.

I am adding a pragmatic review because no one else did – and want to help people out there to figure out what’s the deal with this fragrance. =)
I have just bought a 50ml bottle of Boss Ma Vie Pour Femme Florale, without reading anything solid about it. This was a passion buy triggered by the fact that the opening is DIVINE. This is a really clean floral, but it is definitely not migraine-inducingly fresh. Very airy and pretty but also a little fruity. Looking at the notes, I see pieces I don’t really agree with in my favorite fragrances (sandalwood, amber, cedar?) and it makes me think that this is not for me who is a fruity-floral devout. But somehow this fragrance worked very very well for my taste. After the pretty floral opening it turns a bit oriental in the way that it starts giving out a cold tea note when it settles. It reminds me of Avon’s Be Sensual, minus the musk.
It stays on for very long actually, managed to cling onto my skin for a full work day from 9 to 7 and maybe longer. HOWEVER, its silage is basically close to nothing. Which is fine if you want to entertain yourself and not necessarily your whole office with your fragrance – that is why I don’t regret the money I put in it. If it had bad longevity, then I would be frustrated.
Overall a nice fragrance which you really need to try before buying as the combination of the notes seen above might be giving you a different idea than what the fragrance actually smells like – and also due to the fact that the opening which lasts only around 10 minutes is very different than what you will be carrying on for the rest of the day.
