What's your favourite Le Labo perfume?

I have Christmas money & undecided between Another 13, Santal 33 or The Noir. Ideally all of them but will buy one for now. I'm leaning towards Another 13.

Which is your favourite?

Unhelpfully my favourite is Baie 19 :) Just go with your gut. Or get samples of all three and then decide.

4intheCorner · 27/12/2025 19:53

Another 13 is my favourite, followed by Bergamote 22 and Neroli 36.

MysweetAudrina · 27/12/2025 19:54

Baie 19

evtheria · 27/12/2025 19:56

Another 13

I expected to love Santal 33 but unfortunately it was the wrong kind of sandalwood scent on my skin, luckily didn’t buy the full size. Haven’t been wowed by any of their others.

Another 13

BlazesBoylansHat · 27/12/2025 20:06

Oooh Another 13 in the lead! That's the one i'm gravitating towards.

I already have 50ml Bergamote 22 which i love

I haven't tried Baie 19 so that's on the list to try

Another 13, Neroli, Rose 31.

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 27/12/2025 21:06

I’m an oddity as the two I have (and love) are Lavande and Eucalyptus!

DancingNotDrowning · 27/12/2025 21:11

I have Another 13 and Santal 33 but my fave is Thé Matcha

G5000 · 28/12/2025 16:03

The Noir, love it!

AMiddleClassWomanOfACertainAge · 28/12/2025 16:26

Matcha 26, I love it. My youngest always says I smell very upmarket when I wear it.

NoelEdmondsHairGel · 28/12/2025 16:37

Was given Santal 33 and it was way too masculine on my skin.

DollopOfFun · 28/12/2025 16:42

Thé Matcha.

I love wearing different perfumes but that one is my signature one, or at least the one that the kids says smells of 'me'.

BlazesBoylansHat · 28/12/2025 18:14

Its so interesting how we all perceive smell differently isn't it.

I don't find Santal 33 particularly masculine. Yet i know men & women who wear it.

I have a good friend who wears The Noir & its absolutely 'her smell' & whenever i smell it it makes me think of her

I wear a lot of Tom Ford generally, i have several but Santal Blush is the one my dc assiciate with me

I adore beautiful scents & love to have different ones to suit my mood and / or the occassion

Another 13 followed by Santal 33.

One word of warning though - I purchased a bottle last year (with my name and bottling date/location on the label - relevant) and the tube came out of the atomiser within about a month, rendering it unusable.

I took it to the place I bought it (which was on the label) and they said they’d only refund with a receipt which I don’t have, because who keeps a receipt for a bottle of perfume?

I did however have proof that I’d spent the exact cost of the bottle of perfume on the same date the perfume was bottled (per label).

the store refused to refund as I couldn’t prove I’d purchased it from them. I contacted le labo who after making me dance through a dozen hoops claimed they could do nothing due to “IATA Regulations”.

in the end I opened a small claims case against the store and they begrudgingly replaced the bottle.

so really crappy service from both le labo and their authorised seller.

when I was in the airport last week I fancied a spritz and notice three out of the fifteen plus bottles on display had the sane fault and could not be sprayed so I suspect le labo are fully aware of the issue.

Another 13 followed by Thé Matcha 26.

Santal 33 has been the subway smell for years now and the sandalwood used on it turns to the dreaded dill pickle on me. The dupes don't.

Considering your name was on the bottle along with the date you bought it, that's really poor customer service not to replace it when there was a defect. Glad you followed through.

paristotokyo · 29/12/2025 12:48

I’d choose another 13 too as first option, but they are all good options. My favourite currently is probably eucalyptus though. Enjoy your new fragrance!

FastFood · 29/12/2025 13:20

Santal33, Vanille44 and Rose31

I’m nothing if not persistent! The whole thing was absurd I must have 20+ emails back and forth with le labo and it took months to resolve.

Gorgeous perfume but the absolute worst customer service imaginable.
