 Le Labo aims to have perfume
enthusiasts better understand the
time-honored art of perfume making,
to hone their sense of smell and
develop their olfactory “palette” so
that they too can distinguish what
makes up a fine perfume. Knowledge,
in perfumery as in everything else,
is essential to free choice.
Otherwise, we’re condemned to remain
in the herd of consumers manipulated
by the latest in advertising, fashion
trends and gadgetry…
Le Labo’s exclusive training tools
will help you to learn more, refine
your olfactory “buds” and enable you
to choose your perfumes with a true
expert’s savoir-faire and discernment.
Our main goal is to help you “open
your nostrils” in the same way good
books open their readers’ eyes to
life. Philosophers speak about “men
with stitched-up eyelids” when
referring to people who are blind to
the basics of existence. Most of us
live with stitched-up nostrils,
having grown up in a world where
smells are hidden away, and our
olfactory senses left to wither.
Le Labo believes that it is about
time that we open our eyes, breathe
in deeply and take in all that life
has to offer.
A translation in miniature of the
Perfumers’ pipe organ, THE
OLFACTIONARY is presented as a box
with the 40 fundamental natural
essences used in perfumery.
This remarkable tool has served as a
guide to perfume-makers around the world.
Forty 2.5 ml bottles containing
natural essences suspended in an
alcohol-based solution, representing
the principal scents you find in
perfumes. The box also includes a
pack of olfactory keys or “blotters“
for sampling the scent of these essences.
