Unconstrained Spirit of LE LABO: Where French and NYC Vibes Intertwine
While LE LABO proudly calls New York home, its origins tie back to France through its co-founders, Fabrice Penot and Eddie Roschi. The harmonious blend of the French soul and the energy of New York led to the birth of what we know as LE LABO today. Many of the exquisite ingredients LE LABO employs are sourced directly from Grasse. This synergy underscores our assertion: LE LABO's roots lie in Grasse, flourishing against the dynamic backdrop of New York City.
Elizabeth Street in New York: Where the LE LABO Story Begins
On the vibrant streets of Elizabeth Street in New York, the first LE LABO boutique came to life. With its industrial allure, exposed brick walls, and the simplicity of a black-and-white logo, it's an unexpected sight for a perfume destination. The shelves lined with an array of bottles might make you wonder if you've stumbled into a scientist's lab instead. But within this unassuming space, a profound dream shared by LE LABO's founders takes form. The uniqueness of LE LABO perfumes lies in their handcrafted approach. Instead of mass production, each fragrance is carefully blended on-site, tailored to the desires of individual customers. A special touch is added to every bottle, featuring a customized name and the date of creation, making each LE LABO scent a truly distinctive and meaningful creation.
LE LABO Fragrances: Embracing Genderless Beauty
Step into the world of LE LABO, where the confines of gender fade away, reshaping how we perceive fragrances. Traditionally, scents have been categorized by gender to aid customers in finding their ideal match quickly. Yet, this practice inadvertently segregates fragrances. LE LABO revolutionizes this approach by christening its fragrances based on their key ingredients: think Bergamote22, Santal33, Baie19, and more. This labeling transcends gender, aligning with LE LABO's core belief that fragrances should be liberated from such constraints. Rather than confining scents to prescribed categories, the brand celebrates individual preferences, emotions, and personalities, enriching the perfume experience.
LE LABO Santal 33: A Defining Woody Masterpiece
Santal33 stands as one of LE LABO's most renowned gender-neutral fragrances, embodying the essence of a captivating western cowboy. Often, it's the gateway scent that introduces many to the world of LE LABO. Inspired by the charisma of rugged cowboys and even bearing a hint of Fabrice Penot, one of LE LABO's co-founders, this scent unfolds from the rich notes of woody leather, gradually intertwining with the lushness of iris and cedar, before settling into the serene embrace of sandalwood. Santal 33 is a masterpiece no woodsy fragrance enthusiast should overlook.
Top Notes: Violet, Iris, Papyrus
Middle Notes: Cardamom, Virginia cedar, Vetiver
Base Notes: Sandalwood, Amber, Musk
LE LABO Bergamote 22: Fire Cologne
Picture the sun-kissed setting of a bergamot orchard, where the lively interplay of grapefruit and invigorating bergamot sets the stage for a serene ambiance. As the fragrance matures, a woody essence emerges, reminiscent of a leisurely stroll through a citrus grove on the sunny shores of Sicily. LE LABO Bergamote 22 captures the very essence of summer, bottled into a premium gender-neutral perfume.
Top Notes: Lime, Bitter Orange, Grapefruit
Middle Notes: Cardamom, Orange Blossom

LE LABO The Noir 29: Temptation of Tea Fragrance
In a manner similar to LE LABO Santal 33, The Noir 29 is a gender-neutral woody fragrance. However, an intriguing twist awaits—LE LABO The Noir 29 seamlessly blends the captivating allure of tea notes. Imagine holding a warm cup of tea, the gentle embrace of fig and zesty bergamot dancing together, exuding a uniquely dry quality. This fragrance leisurely unfurls in the air, creating a delightful immersion into the world of tea scents.

LE LABO Baie 19: Petrichor
LE LABO Baie 19 has earned the amusing nickname of "Unscented Perfume" in certain online circles. But, let's clarify – it's not that this fragrance lacks a scent. Instead, it might be more aptly described as "Petrichor" – that earthy aroma that rises after the rain. LE LABO Baie 19 impeccably captures the sensation of moistened earth and the misty aftermath of rainfall, a fragrance that's widely acknowledged as one of nature's most captivating. It's as if a once-dry land revives and flourishes after a long-awaited shower.

LE LABO Another13: addictive dirty potion
LE LABO Another13, a creation that originated for "AnOther" magazine, has affectionately earned the label of a "Refined Pheromone Impression." With a rich blend of ambergris, musk, jasmine, pear, and cedarwood, it artfully mimics the enchanting essence of naturally emitted personal fragrances. A scent only those closest can discern, it exudes an irresistibly captivating charm, akin to an inherent aroma that lingers in the air.
