If you don’t already know of this cult favorite fragrance line, it’s time to get on it. French for “The Laboratory”, this chic and sleekly designed line of insanely beautiful fragrances was created back in 2005 right here in NYC. All their fragrances are freshly formulated and made-to-order at the counter by the perfumer. Their classic scents like Santal, Bergamonte, and Neroli (to name a few) are all measured and mixed right before you with precision in a sleek, lab-like setting. My favorite is Santal 33 which I’ve been wearing everyday for over 7 years and still get so many compliments on even though I feel like I’m smelling it on more and more people around the city. What’s also cool is that each bottle comes with a personalized label including the date the fragrance was created, as well as the location.

Le Labo expanded into bath, body, and hair care earlier this year, and the prices are all pretty reasonable….it’s def giving my love for Aesop hand soap a run for its money. The scents from Le Labo’s hand soap actually stay on the skin a bit longer than Aesop hand soaps. It may be because I personally love this line so much, but there are so many great (and reasonably priced) items to gift to (some very chic) friends and family this holiday. It’s fun, the packaging is on point, and hellooo, you’re guaranteed to have some very nice smelling friends around you in 2019.
