Le Labo
About
Le Labo is a fragrance house known for subtle, striking scents, apothecary-style packaging and a distinctive naming system. Each perfume name pairs a word with a number: the most prominent note and the count of notes in the composition, as in Santal 33 or Violette 30. Fragrances are freshly compounded and hand-labeled, and many are unisex. The Boston shop sits inside The Superette in the Seaport.
Beyond eau de parfum, the shop carries scented candles, incense, lotion, shampoo, perfuming hand cream and hand pomade, so the signature scents carry over into home and personal care. The brand describes its approach as slow perfumery. Perfumes can be personalized, and shoppers can browse women’s and men’s signature scents in the shop or online. The fragrances are presented as handcrafted creations, and the brand’s packaging keeps the apothecary look across its whole range.
