About the Fragrance
Le Labo was founded in New York in 2006 and is known for mixing its fragrances by hand in store, with each bottle labeled for its owner. Its scents are named for a key material plus the number of ingredients in the formula, as in Santal 33. The specific Le Labo fragrance he wears isn’t named, so the whole range is fair game.
Wearing It Yourself
Visit a Le Labo counter or order a few samples, and narrow the range down to two or three that catch your attention. Wear your top picks on skin one at a time, noting how each opens and how it has changed a few hours later. His loyalty to the house is a good tip, but the right bottle is the one that works for you.
Why it matters
Naming a house rather than a single scent points to a trusted style. If you like one Le Labo fragrance, exploring the rest of the collection is an easy way to find your own favorite.
