Le Labo delivers distinctive, long‑lasting fragrances that draw frequent compliments, according to reviews, yet opinions split on wearability and strength—some scents project for days while others fade quickly or feel overpowering. Reviews praise Santal 33, Another 13, Rose 31, Thé Noir 29, Matcha 26, and potent candles, plus personalized labels and refillable bottles; weaknesses include very steep pricing, occasional batch inconsistency and broken sample sprayers, some bodycare underperforming, and candles that soot or burn too fast.

Such a classic brand and a great gift idea. I always find myself gifting the personalized label to friends for special occasions. The in store experience is worth it if you find yourself nearby.
Expensive but the best
to be fair, i'd pick margiela jazz club over any perfume any day
Le Labo feels like the best kept secret, but it's so good you want to share it with everyone. The Santal candle, and fragrance have become iconic, often copied scents, but Le Labo's ability to customize the label make it feel like a private club.

The Santal Candle is OG if you want your house to smell like the most luxurious five-star hotel. It's worth every penny. Easily in my top 3 favorite candles of all time.

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.
Rose 31 is a sophisticated and complex rose fragrance. It's unisex, not overly floral or feminine, and long lasting. I get compliments every time I wear it. It is quite pricey so it's not my everyday perfume.

I fell into the Santal-33-in-2021 craze. I don't regret it but I am, sadly, past it! It was great for me while it lasted, but unfortunately none of Le Labo's other scents are (currently) appealing to me!
Obviously amazing fragrances - love that you can integrate the fragrance all around you by purchasing lotions, shampoos, candles, etc.
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

Santal 33 is my go-to scent throughout the year. I'll give them five stars just for how long the fragrance lasts, morning + mid day gets me well through it, how attractive the packaging is (love the personalized labels), and how rich their fragrances are. I'm also a big fan of their limited edition runs because I love trying out new scents, last year's Berlin & Tokyo were divine.
The candles smell amazing! Wish the pricing was a little better but worth the splurge!
This has beautiful packaging, which I don't mind sitting out. I'm sensitive to scents, but loved the sandalwood fragrance.
Absolutely love this brand. Their scents are so distinctive and unique. The products are luxurious and of the highest quality. Just one spray of the perfume is enough to leave an intense fragrance lingering all day. I love the branding and the aesthetics of the store. My favourite scent is Thé Noir 29 😍
The only fragrance brand I've used for the past 3 years. I get compliments weekly! The discovery kits are great for finding out which scent you like (or if you're looking for luxury scents on a budget). The bergamot hand and body lotion is my absolute favorite and the scent lasts all day long.
Cmon everybody, we all know this is it. You smell that santal 33 and you are transported to every fucking location you've ever been in new york ever. Honestly if I pull up a to restaurant now and I am not assaulted by everyone smelling like this then I know its not going to be any good. Vibe is off if the spot aint reeking of labo baby. Throw away all your other trash and just pick some of this up. This one is it.
I love the store. Have their travel shampoo and conditioner. Amazing products. Perfect for travel. Le Labo scents unfortunately I’m allergic to certain products which is disappointing.

Obsessed with many of their scents, although Santal 33 is obviously the most famous one, others like Rose are favorites of mine too. One complaint that I had about their perfume sample packaging, the vials do not come with a spray nozzle which makes it difficult to apply in a distributed way.
Expensive but worth it. Would recommend going in person to try all the scents if you can! I have a few of their perfumes on my wishlist but are too expensive at this time. I love the Hinoki shower gel though, it's my favorite self-care splurge and it's such a treat when I use it (only on the weekends, lol)

Expensive but worth it if you have the disposable income
