![]() ![]() Overall, my judgement of Le Labo is that they're overpriced usually and the hype can be greater than the actual product. If you're in the US, it's also cheaper to buy Le Labo from Selfridges and Harrods because of the exchange rate. Le Labo is not easily available on the grey market or on most discount websites, although I have seen them on Costco's and FragranceBu圜a's websites occasionally for certain scents. However, I do appreciate their emphasis on sustainability and that they do give discounted refills inside your original bottle when you bring it in. ![]() The price of this discovery set unfortunately is not able to be put towards any actual purchase from them and, in fact, Le Labo is known for being almost impossible to get discounted because of the "hand mixed in store" aspect of their perfumery sales. Le Labo does offer a discovery set with 17 of the classic collection and the only ones that are missing are Thé Matcha 26 (their newest release) and Oud 27 (a smart choice in my eyes as you'll see lol). I find the naming of their perfumes to be off sometimes. An interesting fact about Le Labo's names are that they're given based on the strongest note in the perfume and then the number of notes inside the actual composition. The ones that will be missing from my review are Ambrette 9, Thé Matcha 26, Baie 19, Fleur d'Oranger 27, Patchouli 24, and Ylang 49. I'll be reviewing 13 out of the 19 perfumes in the classic collection by Le Labo. I own three full-size bottles from Le Labo that I've bought over a period of four years with no plans to purchase any more right now as I try to pretend I'm a minimalist. I have been working on this comprehensive review for a little bit now and have finally tested all of the samples a very generous sales associate gave me when shopping. ![]()
