OSMANTHUS 19 Eau De Parfum

First impressions are notes of incense and aromatic lavender, before the titular flower emerges… creamy and uplifting, with woody, resinous tonalities close behind. The composition is pure Kyoto, a nuanced scent for a town where traditional machiya houses sometimes harmonize with concrete and neon, where video game arcades can be found a stone’s throw from the gardens of emperors long past.

This one’s a haiku / for the Eternal City / just in Kyoto labs.

All year round, City Exclusive 50ml, 100ml and 500ml bottles can be refilled in select Le Labo labs, world-wide.
