For some guys a quick spray of cologne as they walk out the door just isn't enough to keep them smelling great throughout the day, and spritzing between meetings just isn't an option, so Le Labo is giving men a new way to wear and maintain their signature scent. The artisan fragrance boutique has an entire arsenal of perfumes for the body, home and travel, but their solid perfume bullets are the coolest form by far. Not only is it way manlier than a little glass spray bottle, but it allows gentlemen to dab just a little on the right spots, giving them just a hint of fragrance. Besides, we’re pretty sure you’ve moved past the days of dousing yourself in AXE body spray.
With a collection of fragrances that range from rose to oud to neroli, Le Labo prides itself on quality not quantity and offers its clients classic blends that are sure to be your newest signature fragrance. While they offer refillable bottles, large decanters, shampoo, conditioner and candle versions of their fragrances, our favorite is easily the mini solid perfume collection. Easy to tote around in a pocket or briefcase (the same can’t be said for their 16.9 fl. oz. decanters) these refillable solid fragrances are alcohol-free, phthalate/paraben free and are made of natural ingredients like coconut oil, sweet almond oil and soybean oil.
This idea of quality craftsmanship pertains not only to their fragrance line but also the bottles, signage, aesthetic and ingredients. Partnering with artisans around the world Le Labo works with papermakers in Japan, harvesters in France, woodworkers in Missouri and illustrators in San Francisco to offer the highest quality to men across the globe. Those looking to scoop up a fragrance or two for the holiday season can also get bottles personalized with fun labels for the “College Grad,” “World’s Best Dad,” or “Studmuffin,” on your list.
Le Labo fragrances are available online and priced from $48-$820.
