Gaiac is my favorite Le Labo, followed by Poivre and Mousse de Chene. I was sleeping on the freshie Limette though. The dry down of Limette is very interesting. Also I’m interested in Bigarade (next year) 😎
Thank you for telling us about your journey. I'm currently going through the same type of process of self discovery - who I am beneath all the triggers. That really resonated with me. Take a look at "RAIN" - recognize, accept, investigate, non-attach. There are several different variations for the acronym but it amounts to the same thing.
Eugen has gone Le Labo loco. If ever you needed our help... it's now, before it's too late. Next time you pass a Le Labo counter, just say 'No'. You can do it Eugen, we're with you. #wackpack
I have Musc 25 and picked up Citron 28 - it’s beautiful!!! It has a huge jasmine heart and the lemon lingers in the background thru the entire scent. Give it a chance! I’d also like to hear ur review of Tonka 25.
I enjoyed mousse de chene quite a bit but it was too soft off my skin. Was hoping for something with a bit more ‘oomph’ for lack of a better word. Great video as usual, Eugenius!
I picked up Poivre and am mulling over 1 more before the end of the month but unsure at the moment - would probably be Benjoin if I did. I noticed you’ve picked up a bottle of Poivre and would love to see your thoughts on that.
City Exclusives are MUCH better than their main line IMO, Cuir, Gaiac, Tabac, Poivre are absolutely great. Gaiac is another permutation of Menardo's formula, and looks like a flanker of Bois d'Argent and Bois d'Armenie
Tried a couple of the City exclusives recently, and they just don't do it for me. The City exclusives are a bit nicer, but the pricing is crazy on them. Overall, i can't pull the trigger, haven't smelled one where i thought it would be worth it. I would pick up a City exclusive or two for regular prices, but in that price category, i can get better things to be honest. My impression of the brand is not positive, great business model though, they are successful with their vision and implementation.
A sales associate came up to me today with a blotter of CUIR 28 while I was looking at Frederic Malle and asked me to smell it, so I essentially was blind-smelling it. It seemed smokey and woody, and I could smell some layers to it. It was better than I remembered my first encounter with it. I'm very glad for that experience, because I had dismissed it initially! The sales associate kept telling me it was "Dubai!" 😂
To be honest, I just love Le Labo, more than Byredo. They have one of the most unique smells and I got asked what I was wearing all the time. They just have soul.
How's the gaiac 10 now after months of use? Me still waiting magic or miracle happens.lol. that cologne is the faintest and weakest ive ever experienced. Any tip on how to make it work?thanks.
I love how Peole are afraid to say or admit that everyone is a “conspiracy theorist “ and don’t know what worlds mean . Spells and words have meaning .
Of the regular line baie 19 & another 13 are superb imo after that patch 24, bergamote 22 & vetiver 46 are all decent but I’ve yet to try any of the city exclusives but i have to say i do like the brand & don’t understand the hate not least when their are brands like parfums de marly getting over hyped.
HaHAA.. DoorJAM!! (a pure pick me-up for me... Humor is the best elixir;). On a more serious note, your fellow contact tracers in da bldg. will demand some blowback, each time you storm troop the poor door. .. No security deposit return for you, Perfume Bully. Btw, I’m wearing, LE lion 😁
Maybe you can’t get a grasp of different notes as you smell a bunch of fragrances because you have literally wiped a concoction of different fragrances on your nose.
So basically Eugen buys 100ml samples 😁😁.Jokes aside, you get a lot of sh** for buying perfumes you don't necessarily "like" or whatever is. The bottom line is that your passion for fragrances is your own personal escape from daily life. Live it however you feel like living it. I really appreciate your honesty and passion that transpires in your videos. I also really like the fact that you don't follow the other youtube fragrance trends and do your own thing without caring of getting views. You do quality content for fragrance nerds and I love it. Keep doing your thing!
From the labels you can see that most of these new acquisitions are purchased in September 2020. Amazed as to how much $ was spent! This is a reoccurring curiosity in the fragrance community. How one spends so much on fragrances!? I’m no slouch myself when it comes to amount of money I spend on this hobby but there will always be others who spend more.
@@jkbsdasf I mostly buy 10 ML travel sprays or 9Ml decant from scent split because no way in hell I can use 50 ml when I have 100 bottles. The only time I buy 50 ML when I can't find the scent on scent split
and some people spend thousands in a year to cigarettes, alcohol and stuff. Some people buy cars, some shoes and yes there are also people who likes fragrances. Why someone always has to mention the money part is a thing that annoys me as it already should be very obvious that fragrances do cost money and when it's someone's passion, it's not measured just in money.
I own another 13 and I enjoy this simple blend. Great for indoors everyone will think you smell amazing.
Great video really like the direction your channel is taking. The wack pack enlightenment. Lol

Love your fantastic work my brother
I love le labo soooooooo much. A bit too avant garde for the general public. It's my fav house 🥰
This is my sentiment as well. like people has to experience the scents multiple times to really appreciate them

Did you tell the sales associate you hate le Labo , but still want to buy all their city exclusives?
Well done 😂😂😂
lols
You are a joy to watch man, keep it up!
I have Musc 25 and picked up Citron 28 - it’s beautiful!!! It has a huge jasmine heart and the lemon lingers in the background thru the entire scent. Give it a chance!
I’d also like to hear ur review of Tonka 25.
Tanka 25 on my skin smell like steak
I enjoyed mousse de chene quite a bit but it was too soft off my skin. Was hoping for something with a bit more ‘oomph’ for lack of a better word. Great video as usual, Eugenius!
To me Tobac is Santal 33 with a cinnamon candle added. Not a big fan.
Think I’m going to love Gaiac though
Santal 33 is gorgeous on my skin.
I picked up Poivre and am mulling over 1 more before the end of the month but unsure at the moment - would probably be Benjoin if I did. I noticed you’ve picked up a bottle of Poivre and would love to see your thoughts on that.
Look how He Open door - one and only 😉
OMG!!! I love your collection! But I think that it is not good idea to store the perfumes on direct sunlight.
City Exclusives are MUCH better than their main line IMO, Cuir, Gaiac, Tabac, Poivre are absolutely great. Gaiac is another permutation of Menardo's formula, and looks like a flanker of Bois d'Argent and Bois d'Armenie
Price is ridiculous though
Funny, Tabac is majorly sweet for me. Like cinnamon + dates
I sell these by the 17oz bottle or 2oz decant and many other niche fragrances

Byredo tobacco Mandarin coming out shortly. Sounds interesting. Dark juice too .
Just curious what’s your issue with Santal 33
Suggest to try on skin like Ashton does for the niche ones... Paper might not give a good perspective.. Cheers
Most if not all are blind buys. Krigler is my most resent and one of the the most expensive. Ensar oud being the most expensive.
LOVELY intro
SOTD: Iris Silver Mist by Serge Lutens!
🕺
You do you! We know you are passionate and not full of BS... no need to explain/justify.... #wackpack
which perfume is similar to musk 25?
Excellent
How's the gaiac 10 now after months of use? Me still waiting magic or miracle happens.lol. that cologne is the faintest and weakest ive ever experienced. Any tip on how to make it work?thanks.
Just picked up Gaiac 10
I ❤ Guerlain
Thank you for this cool video, does Tabac 28 smell like Tom Ford Tobacco Oud ?
I’m subscribed and I love your videos 🙌🏿
I love how Peole are afraid to say or admit that everyone is a “conspiracy theorist “ and don’t know what worlds mean . Spells and words have meaning .
Have you tried KRIGLER?
Of the regular line baie 19 & another 13 are superb imo after that patch 24, bergamote 22 & vetiver 46 are all decent but I’ve yet to try any of the city exclusives but i have to say i do like the brand & don’t understand the hate not least when their are brands like parfums de marly getting over hyped.
Personally the brand just isnt for me, the only one I've found worth having is oud 27
can you review patchoulli ardent?
HaHAA.. DoorJAM!! (a pure pick me-up for me... Humor is the best elixir;). On a more serious note, your fellow contact tracers in da bldg. will demand some blowback, each time you storm troop the poor door. .. No security deposit return for you, Perfume Bully.
Btw, I’m wearing, LE lion 😁
Alright alright alright
I didn’t realize you’re from Toronto!
Love
SOTD: Bogue MEM. Haven’t had much experience with Le Labo, personally.

Geurlain

Damn u even like le labo now?? Whats next?
More like Le Lame-o, amirite?
Does the Gaiac 10 not remind you of Sycomore?
❤️🌺
Maybe you can’t get a grasp of different notes as you smell a bunch of fragrances because you have literally wiped a concoction of different fragrances on your nose.
I’m late. Is this satire? That video from 5 year ago to this? 😅 I love le labo. i have 10 100ml with them. all positive experience
African Leather is so sh*tty it needs to be said as often as necessary.
I found Mousse de Chene underwhelming especially at $8/ml.
So basically Eugen buys 100ml samples 😁😁.Jokes aside, you get a lot of sh** for buying perfumes you don't necessarily "like" or whatever is.

Now there's a fragrance concept "after a yankee game" 🤣😂 street meat, popcorn, draft beer, subway cars and puke. 😐 #wackpack
Patchoulie 22 i think it really stunk i didnt like it at all
hold on to it for a bit and try it again, its one of the better Le Labo
You have over 100000$ in perfume
From the labels you can see that most of these new acquisitions are purchased in September 2020.
Amazed as to how much $ was spent!
