Le Labo is widely recognized for its unique, high-quality, long-lasting fragrances, like Santal 33 and Another 13, which have become signature scents for many. Their packaging is attractive and they offer a large selection of products beyond perfumes, like lotions, candles, and diffusers. However, despite their undeniably luxurious scents, some customers find certain fragrances too earthy or citrusy. Another common complaint is the high price point, especially considering the functional quality of some products like the lotion, which isn't very moisturizing. There is also a desire for wider availability, especially in the EU.

I first tried Le Labo while staying at The Edition hotel in NYC. That is, by far, my favorite scent. It's luxurious to wear in a lotion, and elevates any home's space in the diffusor form (both of which we are religious customers of). 

Some of the scents at Le Labo aren't quite my taste - a bit too citrusy, or musty, or earthy. But The store is inviting to sample scents and see how they wear. They are pricey, especially for the quality (e.g., the lotion's scent lasts, but isn't all that moisturizing), but for the right scents, are a worthy splurge.

Wonderful silage and unmistakable scents. There's a bit in Neo Yokio where Santal 33 is referenced as the Chanel No 5 of our time, and it's quite true. It's an unmistakable, generation-defining scent. For that exact reason, I think many are averse to wearing it, i.e. because scent is so personal/mysterious and that scent is so recognizable and widely-used. However, its quality and lasting power cannot be denied. I love the Lys, Rose, and Thé Noir scents from Le Labo, as well as their Hindi body wash and santal home candle. Delicious and luxurious scents - I would not be surprised if in 30 years they hold similar standing to Diptyque and Trudon. They just have to prove that the scents will maintain their quality post L'Oreal acquisition (happened a few years ago at this point) and that they can remain timeless/current. I'm optimistic.

santal is thee signature scent! it’s definitely a splurge but if you can swing it, it’s a delicious smell that i want to spray everywhere

Amazing, natural, almost addicting smells. My personal fav is Le Labo, but pretty much any scent is delicious. This is a “stop on the street and ask what you’re wearing” scent. Highly highly recommend. A little goes a long way. Plus the packaging is so chic!

Obviously amazing fragrances - love that you can integrate the fragrance all around you by purchasing lotions, shampoos, candles, etc. 

Great perfume, addicting and my husband loves it!

THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST CANDLE I HAVE EVER HAD. SO SENTIMENTAL. SO PERFECT. 

Truly a luxurious experience from buying the perfume to using it. They personalize the bottle by having your name on it. The smell is very rich and unique.
