Le Labo can be a controversial fragrance house. Generally using more natural blends, Le Labo focuses more on 'bright' perfume profiles for both genders. Most of their bottles are £150 in price, do you think they're worth it? What are your thoughts on the brand in general? What do you think are the best Le Labo fragrances?

"1 Million Paco Robanne" buying guide please?
I have 4 large bottles of Le Labo-Santal 33, Ambrette 9, Another 13, Thé Noir. All worth it. Everyone has a chemistry and while I appreciate reviews, nothing beats going to the store and trying it yourself and then sitting with it a few days. My ultimate favorite is Santal 33 and I don’t smell pickle juice at all. I got a sampler from Nordstrom and couldn’t live without it.
I agree about Santal 33. My eyes roll back when I sniff it. It’s a lifer for me
Santal 33 makes me want to throw up
Neither do I, with Santal 33 I get freshly wet tree bark like if it rained in a forest, with some violet leaf and damp soil. VERY EARTHY, VERY REFRESHING, one of my favorite scents ever
Its funny because I do not like the smell of Santal 33 AT ALL but when my buddy and I go out on the town he wears it and gets tons of compliments! I will say one day we went out and he wore the Santal 33 and I wore Tom Ford Oud Wood and I got a lot more compliments and hes better looking then me so it was for sure the cologne lol
Another 13 gave me compliments like never before. I’ve been using this for 3 years now and it smells different on everyone tbh. It is so hard to explain why people love it, but it is one of those, either you love it and is crazy about it or you don’t (hardly noticed the scent for some)
How many sprays do you put on? I absolutely love it but have some trouble smelling it...
@@gangigooga7710 about 4-6 sprays. lesser than 4 sprays, you won’t notice much on you but others will still notice it. but this scent works really well in a close settings environment, such as office, library, indoors and private functions/house warming.
I fell in love with this scent on someone else from meters away, bought it immediately, couldn’t smell it on my skin at all, but people around me gave me compliments. They claim that they can smell it before I enter the room, in a good way:) After using it three months, I can smell it in my closet, and when I open the bottle cap, also in my office. It is such an elegant and pleasant scent to smell😊
@@gangigooga7710 spray it on skin. it is very easy to go noseblind with, so make sure it's not near your face.
The Noir 29 is their best for me. Longevity is amazing here in tropical climate….blooming beautifully.
Shhhhhh!
Wow that’s crazy cuz I absolutely can’t even stand the smell of it
@@BA-cz4is really? Which note smell not good for you?
@@yukiaditya7352 not quite sure , it just make me Arh damn near sickening. Maybe it’s more suited for mature men im in my mid 20s idk
I’m 30 had my first le labo the noir few years ago I tried smelling other le labo when I was in NY last year and ended up not taking anything because I didn’t want to get the noir again but after a year my noir is down to its last drops and I’m visiting family in ny next week I will be getting the noir again hands down my favorite
I love this series. Is there a reason many Frag-tubers don't review Byredo fragrances? I feel like the brand is rarely discussed, but a lot of influencers like it.
May need to look in to it 👌
Their freshies are minimalist, but pheasant and modern. Sweeden style. De los Santos was quite nice to wear.
Some of their bold frags are beasts. Slow dance is an awesome winter scent.
I've got quite nos of byredo in my collection and I love them all some are more light and delicate but the dark heavy ones are quite potent but nice too imo
Byredo has a lot of interesting offers IMO.
The women my age and income bracket love Byredo. Also when I was in scent bar in lower manhattan for like 20mins one day like 3 people came in to ask about Byredo things. No other brand similarly. They seem to be a very popular niche.
Another 13 and Santal 33 are two of my favorites fragances, high quality and super long lasting!!
Is santal 33 really gud?
@@AccentBwoy it is amazing!! i get tons of compliments!! actually im wearing it today!!
Me too! And I’m a woman!
From the 2, which one would work well for a 70 yo woman?
On my skin I can’t pick up Another 13, shame because I want to like it so bad. Everyone who has smelled it says good things about it 😞 atleast Santal 33 smells like a fresh wet forest and not pickle juice on me that’s what I’m most grateful for about this line 😭
One seriously underrated Le Labo is MUSC 25. My wife and I went to the LA store recently to check out some of the other scents and we both unexpectedly fell in love with MUSC 25. She found it incredibly sexy. The name made me think it would be a super pungent, animalic, dark fragrance but it’s actually very subtle, light, and beautiful
Your Noir 29 review was surprising to me because I find that the performance is the best I've ever encountered. The smell lasts on my skin for 10+ hours, my clothes into the next day and actually lasted (accidentally) on a rope bracelet I wore for 24+ hours and through a swim and a shower... and it is easily my most complimented fragrance.
Fair enough, these guides are not perfect, there are so many to go through I usually give one full wearing to each! Also maybe your skin works well with it 😊
Agree smell is for 2 days on me and even longer on clothes
Patchouli 24 is one of most underrated scents I've met, there's no other with a (really) similar profile to that. Despite the name patchouli is noticeable mostly only in first phases, then - I agree - birch with styrax takes the lead. I tend to like masculine, darker, captivating scents and P24 amongst Smoke Akro, Montecristo Masque Milano, Le Lion Chanel and Oud Seven Matiere Premiere are still one of my favourites. I also agree it's not easy to wear, can be polaryzing but after smelling almost 700 different niche offerings I can say it's really unique and worth trying, if you're a fan of darker, mystical scents. ;)
Closest to P24 would be Hortus Sanitatis Gucci but it's easier to wear and not that heavy (which some of you may like more).
I love p24 lmao
I'm surprised by your review by The Noir 29 because this was the one that worked the best on my skin and was meh when spritzed on paper. I loved the masculine/unisex vibe of it as I'm not someone who leans toward feminine or safe scents much even tho I'm female. My other two top picks from Le Labo would be from their City Exclusives - Benjoin 19 (preferred this to Musc 25) and Aldehyde 44 (surprising for me as I don't usually go for fresh and clean scents) after sampling everything in that collection. I also loved Cuir 28 as one of the better Oud scents I've tried (I find Oud scents very hard to perfect and fall in love with), and Tubereuse 40. Gaiac 10 on the other hand, it needed time to settle in before I could appreciate it fully. In terms of Another 13, I preferred Diptyque's L'Eau Papier because Another 13 kinda felt more synthetic to me whereas L'Eau Papier was more fresh and natural.
another 13 is my signature scent! it’s been my go to for years
is it versatile for all seasons/occasions and office friendly ?
@@1giane definitely versatile for all seasons, not sure about office friendly - depends on if you feel comfy wearing a pretty intense musky fragrance to work.
Such a good scent. I found Juliet had a gun not a perfume super dose smells quite like another 13
@Paul Pogba Another 13 is my everyday perfume. Definitely worth the money. You get nose blind to it, but it projects really well and other people definitely notice. Stays on clothes for days. Scent profile also changes depending on the season, but this projects well on warm skin. This is the only perfume where I've been chased down the street on several occasions and people were asking me what I'm wearing.
Wow I get at least 6 -7 hours of the noir 29 off my skin, skin chemistry definitely plays huge part in fragrances
Patchouli 24 is an absolutely fantastic scent. There is no patchouli at all pretty much. And thank god for that. It’s about birch tar and smoky vanilla and thankfully it’s linear where tar and vanilla are sort of of fighting with each other over the course. Longevity is great and very noticeable trail.
I love another 13 and ylang 49
Jasmine has a great opening, but doesn’t last.
Labdanum is musc ravageur with a slight twist (nice, but no need if you have the fm).
Bergamot is nice, but doesn’t last on me, but lasts all day on a girl I know.
I don’t like santal, but can see how some love it as it’s unique.
Patchouli is a smoke bomb that I don’t understand.
Tonka goes funky on my skin.
The city exclusives are expensive (but I guess that’s relative).
Tuberose is summer fun.
Tabac is an awesome fresh tobacco.
Guiac is Japan style perfected.
Musc is worth a try.
Excellent review of Vetiver 46, the only Le Labo I’ve owned and my first fragrance! I didn’t know I was a vetiver lover then, now I REALLY KNOW, lol! It’s interesting how it’s spicy and ambery but wears well in the summer. Awesome fragrance. STILL I don’t want to pay that LL price again 😅
That’s awesome! A niche Vetiver worth trying is Sultane Vetiver by Nishane if you haven’t already, it’s Vetiver overload!
Your review of Patchouli 24 in my opinion couldn’t be more wrong. This is an amazing fragrance. It’s bold, it drys down beautifully and almost perfect especially for Winter. It reminds me of A*men in it’s difference from the usual mundane scents we see.
I love it, it's the reason I'm even watching this lol
@@friendly-stranger6223 Same! There's nothing like it. People will be surprised when they smell it
Agreed, my favourite from the line!
I second your opinion
Just recently found out they have a store here in San Diego and though I’ve tried a couple of their scents (also wasn’t in to Santal 33 either.) I was more into noir 29 which lasted well into the next DAY for me, but had some notes that I thought were somewhat unpleasant as well. I’m pretty excited though because I like the idea of exploring this. And it looks like I’ll be able to have some first-hand experience in a local store.
i adore santal 33! Met a customer who wore it on a summerday 2022 and that event brought me into frags.
It smells like the forrest walk down to the beach in france to check the waves 🌲🌞🌊🤙
I've got Santal 33, Another 13 and bergamot 22 and I love them all so much...
Bergamot is great. Lys41 is awesome too
Patchouli 24 is such an underrated scent . Thank god for that . I hate it to be mainstream ….. the scent is simple but powerful . It wears extremely different through time and it is a pure bliss to be complimented from time to time by people .
I get the most compliments for The Noir, and it holds for very long. I like it, punchy but not too much in the course of the day.
Dunhill Century is also quiet close to Santal 33 , smells high quality and cost around 25 Euro, if you guys are looking for an alternative ! 😊
Been asking you about reviewing this house ever since I found your channel. Finally ! Thanks for listening champ
These are my favorite kinds of videos! Would love to see more of them (Esp Initio and Orto Parisi!)
I get compliments every time I wear Matcha 26. I think it works well on women!
I got the Tonka 25!! Its quite good with a musky fragrance and I get around 4-5 hrs longevity on skin and 6-7 hrs on clothes! Bit pricey though
Rose 31 🔥 9/10
The noir 29 will keep smelling till the next day..if sprayed on clothing like a jacket and leave in closet after the day of use. I can still smell the noir 29 a day sometimes 2 maybe 3 days believe it or not
I so much appreciate the effort you’ve put into this series. So many questions I’ve had from the houses you’ve covered answered in one video. Thanks.
Subbed.
I really like this series of videos; I wasn't aware that brands even offered discovery sets until watching your videos for MFK and PdM.
Can you do one of these for Tom Ford and/or Initio Parfums?
Oud 27 is already discontinued, and a London retail assistant told me Iris 39 was very close to being discontinued (they already know about the plan to), this was from a store visit on Feb 5th, 2023
Too bad. Their Oud is decent. Not amazing, but definitely wearable
Ive got labdanum 18 and Fell in love with it
Thanks for your review of Le Labo dedicated to each scent profile. Although you were not a true fan of each with a scent comparison most! Appreciate the top and base notes
Love the guides series! Really helpful for the beginners. Keep doing those
Santal 33 is one of the most unique and underrated fragrances, its weird that lots of people get the pickle juice vibe, its a work of art.
Le Labo Gaiac 10 is my signature fragrance. I adore that fragrance !!
After that I love Another 13, Rose 31 and Citron 28. After listening to your review I am going to order a decant of Bergamote 22, it sounds like something I'd like. I don't find the sillage of any of the Le Labo fragrances very good, but I just happen to really love that line anyway, but, that's me. I could never understand the total love everybody has over Creed Aventus, I think it's brutal because it can clear a room it's so overpowering yet people just love it and I'll always wonder why I don't feel that way at all. Perfume is so personal, we can't all love the same thing or it would be a dull world. I'm very happy with the Le Labo line and will continue with it because I think their fragrances are very unique. I'm lucky I have a good perfume decant house where I can buy City Exclusives all year.
A quality review here no bs. great work keep it up 👍
I’m new to fragrances and I have a question, how can I tell the difference between a fragrance that’s fading away, (last a few hours) between a fragrance that I can’t smell because my nose’s used to it ?
I have no idea if my perfume just don’t last well, or if my brain ignores it after a while.
Canvas those around you.
Santal 33 & The Noir 29 😊
Hi Omra. First of all what you are doing here is fantastic, you are a great help.
You didn't try Tabac 28? I really wanted to know your opinion on this one
what makes you say a perfume isnt fit for winter?
Your honesty is real accurate trust me
Surprisingly the nior actually last only my skin which speaks thousands as most fragrances dont last and the nior definitely last more than 4hrs on me
It’s a good thing you couldn’t find Oud27. If the fragrance could be an image, it would be that of a dirty tunnel that is frequently used by people to defecate in. Some say it smells like cat piss but I find it smells more like an underpass that is home to an itinerant. Highly provocative smell that is NOT for the faint of heart. I’ve contemplated getting a bottle for show but I just cannot handle the smell.
Everyone is saying similar things in the comments 😳
@@SchoolOfScentit’s been a while and I’ve gotten my bottle of Oud 27 😂 I revisited my sample from last year and fell in love. Ambery musky florals with a little animalic touch up top.
I find with most Le Labo scents, it’s necessary to let them macerate for a few weeks or more. I suggest you revisit some of these samples cause time does wonders. The Noir 29 and Rose 31 have nuclear performance on me, lasting for 12 hours on skin and weeks on clothes, even surviving washes.
It has become my favourite perfume houses.
Another great vid. Thanks Omar. What are your trusted sample sites?? Please share 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thanks Peter! For the UK, I use fragrance samples uk 😊
DecantX for US/Canada!
@@SchoolOfScent 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Do you mind telling us which of those fragrance sample websites are the ones you trust? Thanks ahead of time, your videos are great
Fragrance Samples UK
Santal 33 is the best of the best
My wife bought me the sample kit and i can pick one 3.4oz bottle i want. Hard choice. I've found a few so far I really like and others smell way too musky, strong or like a cigar room.
What is your favourite from the brand do you think?
@SchoolofScent hey! Love the content. I've enjoyed the LYS41, Bergamote, vetvier, and santal33. I'm about half way through the sampler. My wife loved the LYS on me this weekend, asked which one it was, and subsequently stole the sampler, haha. Looks like we may have to get that one and share it, although I'm interested to smell the one you compared it to.
Prada amber intense is another good one. Better buy than lelabo The Noir. Last longer
Another 13 , Tonka 25 my favorite
Great video! I appreciated the time stamps. I ordered the sample set and I am glad I did because many of them were stinkers. However, I fell madly in love with Rose 31 followed by Another 13, Bergamot, and Labdamun. Ambrette is also nice, but it’s weak. Thank you again for your thorough review! 🎉
omg i too thought so many were stinkers! i sent the samples back with a complaint letter! which they didn't understand- but i've since understood their ...shall we say, nose?
I really liked the Bergamote, how is the staying power, does it project well and does it last? Would you repurchade? Another that I liked was Lavender, and Another 13.
I know, that we both like animalic qualities of musks in perfumery, Omar, but Oud 27 is not worth trying. This is not well blended and the olfactive profile is horribly fecal smelling. Definitely opposite thing to the mass appeal. Absolutely agree about Vetiver 46. And I think people, who love Neroli should definitely put their noses to Nio by Xerjoff. Gorgeous natural perfumery where neroli naturals and bergamot raw materials are blended so beautifully. Very elegant.
Regarding bergamot natural olfactive profiles, definitely Bergamotto di Calabria EDT by Acqua Di Parma is my recommendation instead of Le Labo offerings. Surprisingly, I quite liked Patchouli 24 by this brand, this is a very big exception together with Vetiver 46.\
Very nice vid!
neroli just smells like sun screen
Honestly a lot of orange/neroli perfumes often end up smelling like sunscreen to me too
Bergamote 22 is elite.
Even beats neo in my book...
The Noir is the best of them all by far ❤️
I do like bergamote 22 clone from middle east brand, that is emir just bergamot. Amazing sweet bergamot + earthy smell. Although longevity is what you can expect from a freshie fragrance
I own two Sandalwood essential oils and they smell totally different. One is dry and the other sweet.
Yes they can be
My favorite frag series on youtube
Overpriced for a synthetic! Production cost is probably less than 10$. Retail for 300$
I wouldn’t say their stuff is synthetic overall, but I do think a lot of their releases aren’t worth the price
@@SchoolOfScent I bought another 13 last December. While it is pleasant to smell, I’m not sure I’m happy that I paid 265 euro for 100ml. Escentric Molecule 2 is too similar and a quarter of the price.
Sound like it and creed is overprice
Just here waiting for you to do the amouage video
Is there any that smell similar to coach black? bcuz coach black is my favorite and I feel like my signature scent.
Thanks for this .
Any chance you can do Orto parisi and nassomato ?
Looking for another brand or scent that has a similar profile to tonka 25. Any suggestions please?
I've been in the fragrance game for YEARS and I own and have tried all and have given them full wearing. But for the$$ theres sooo many Awesome fragrances out there you can get for the $ for one of these ..and for me another 13 and Bergamot 22 were truly the only ones I really enjoyed
Interesting and what would you say which season those are best for and also how's the longevity on both?
Yes even mixed together. My favorite. I don’t know if the fragrance is for a hippie like he said.
Gaiac 10 is their best fragrance very underrated imo
Lys is an amazing fragrance. I buy it for my wife once a year. Absolutely amazing.
For me personally, there's clearly some kind of overarching Le Labo DNA that connects with me, because I really enjoy every scent I've tried from this brand. Top 3 would be Another 13, Noir 29 and Matcha 26.
Wow! This is your best outfit yet! Those glasses are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥! Please make them your 'signature' glasses. The shirt, the shave... And I'm almost sure I can smell you from here 😉, and I hope you're wearing AVENTUS 😉😅
Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try these fragrances and have a blessed day
I wasn't going to buy any le labo fragrances in the first place but thanks ❤
Lys is so so pretty. 😢 I want to get it for my b day soon ❤
1. Bergamont 22 10/10 2.Noir 29 9.5/10 best fig scent ever. 3.Rose 31 9/10 best Rose scent on the market
Hey school of scents are you able to do a buying guide for Acqua Di Parma
It depends, some brands are trickier than others
Patchouli 24 is the best especially in fall/winter
Can you also do this same series for Loewe fragrances?
Did you keep the Santal 33? I detest it also. Smells like rotten herbs to me. Yuck
Cremo the Brand has a clone of Santal 33, very good for only like $20
You mean Palo Santo body wash from Cremo?♡
I have been waiting on you to make this video! You’re not missing out on Oud 27, absolutely the worst oud I have ever smelled, and Iris is becoming discontinued sadly, but I mean if you have Dior Homme Parfum, you’re not really missing out tbh, but great video!
It’s not getting discontinued you cheesepuff
@@reggiebell7291 Resource? I was told by a manager from a boutique that it’s about to get discontinued
@@jiggy. currently in denial. Thank you for this information but I refuse to believe it. That’s so cruel.
I love Santel 33. For the price you pay it just doesn't last what so ever, no longevity.
Really? It’s generally considered a long lasting fragrance, I get 10 hours
It easily lasts all day. Need to be careful with it's intense projection too. It's strong. Two full sprays can be too much
It’s last for 12 hours on me. Everyone’s body chemistry is different. My bottle last for a long time because I don’t use it everyday.
man you can get for more views if you upgrade your thumbails, video quality is always good you deserve more views
Thanks, this video will be close to 100k views by the end of the year hopefully, this type of content is ‘evergreen’ and tends to start off slow
hey just so you know, there's another Santal 33 clone out there- (i stopped a woman wearing Santal 33 on the street a few years ago but have fallen out of love since- too ubiquitous) anyhoo - Cremo (yeh, Cremo!) makes something called Palo Santo. Almost indistinguishable. you're welcome.
I love santal 33 as well as another 13
Can we have one for initio?
Great content ! Please do 1 million line with the new elixir and royal
Thanks! Did this already although excluding royal
Rose 31 I love it ❤
You need to return that full bottle of Santal 33 for Another 13
buy frederic malle buying guide please! would be amazing
I'm surprised you didn't rate the performance for alot of these as they are some of the most godlike performers I've tried. Also yes the blend is simple, this is because they train all their staff to be able to make the scents in store on demand Infront of the customers. You are paying more for that detail so it's definitely not for everyone.
Such as which fragrances in regards to performance? Interesting, didn’t know that! That’s a gimmick imo 😂 but it does make for a cool experience!
@@SchoolOfScent Le Labo is known for being quite beast mode for me, so most of them you rated 4-6 hours longevity, notably The Noir which I can't wear to the office because it's too strong! Your assessment of Patchouli was bang on though 😂😂😂 and yeah it is a gimmick (especially since the staff regularly f**k up and create lots of inconsistent batches (they have a high return %). 'Made to order' is cool idea tho.
@@SirSillageSniffington makes sense mate. Wonder how they manage to mess up so much then. Defo a gimmick.
Best website for samples??
Wish you had done Tabac 28. Awesome!!!
Tabac is a city exclusive, available for samples in stores in August and can order in September. Or if you go to Miami (I think that’s the city it’s in)
I have santal and it seems to be gone in like an hour😢
Which Le Labo is the best for dates/ night outs?
The Noir 29
I would opt for labdanum
@@SchoolOfScent Ok thanks, what about the: Le Labo Another 13/ Le Labo Thé Noir 29/ Le Labo Santal 33 then?
Ore the: Le Labo Labdanum 18 just get the jobe dunn?
Great series! Would love to see you do Beaufort London.
neither of those fragrances from the beginning are discontinued most likely out of stock as I went to the le labo store in Seattle twice and found both but they arent much to write home about especially oud 27 it is just a stinky barnyard animalic oud scent
pls do xerjoff , would love to see a video on them
@@bryanryan4504 bro he buys samples if the fragrances are exoensive
Let’s see if you will answer this question. I’ve asked a lot of reviewers this question and EACH one is afraid to answer it. If you had to choose one Fragrance House to stay with forever,which House would you choose? I left you for last because I felt you would be the first one if not the only one to answer this question. I know why the others don’t answer,but you aren’t like them.
How about Rose 31?
Ath 🤝 school of scent being the best fragrance channels
Can we have one for initio?!
Just finished opening my Discovery set. Literally hated almost every scent except Santal 33.I honestly don't like it that much. its just the best of the bunch. What an extremely over hyped company/product.
