3. What Do Le Labo Numbers Mean?
Well, each fragrance name by Le Labo is composed of two things; the main scent note, and the number of ingredients. Santal 33 is so named because the main note comes from the compound santal, and because it contains 33 ingredients. Likewise, Neroli 36 is powered by the scent of neroli, and contains 36 ingredients.

Le Labo started because Roschi and Penot both have a deep interest in handcrafting soulful fragrances that are both familiar and unexpected. “We work to make the lives of people more beautiful by creating unique sensorial experiences. Our craft is deeply rooted in slow perfumery.” - Roschi and Penot
