Maybe because the site I was using was a UK site for Butterflies...
Seems it's present in Europe also... Lets see if someone confirms the ID.

Scientific name should be Polyommatus icarus ?

The only thing is, it says their habitat is more likely to be in Great Brittain, not really the same than Spain or South of France !
