My favorite Le Labo fragrance is Rose 31.
Thanks!
I live in the US . My fave Le Labo is Labdanum 18 . Thanks !
I live in the U.S. I haven’t tried Le Labo, but I particularly like white florals, so I think I would really like to try Lys 41.
I live in the US, and if hard pressed to find a favorite among the Le Labo line, I’d say Rose 31 as well. Bergamote 22 is a close second. Malle’s Lys Mediterranee is great when applied in moderation for the summer!
I live in the US. I haven’t tried any Le Labo fragrances yet. Not sure about a favorite summer floral either. Thanks.
I live in the US, and my favorite Le Labo is Patchouli 24. It’s excellent on its own and wonderful for layering. Thanks!
I live in the us. Love le labo rose!!!
I live in the US and I haven’t unfortunately tried any of the Le Labo line, but my favorite summer floral so far would have to be FM’s En Passant; I do also like Lys Mediterranée, so I would be happy to try another good lily
Thank you for the contest. I live in the US and haved only tried (but loved) Le Labo Rose 31 so far, though there are many in the line that intrigue me. My favorite summer fragrance at the moment is Creed Virgin Island Water. Both Ylang 49 and Lys 41 sound beautiful, so it is nice to finally be excited about a fragrance launch again since I’ve reached the ‘ennui’ stage of perfumistahood. 😉
I live in the U.S. and you have permission to use my email. I am enjoying Jour d’Hermes these days along with Jasmine Summer (Soivohle).
Great contest! I live in the United States. My favorite Le Labo is the Neroli 36; I love the marine aspect and it layers nicely with a variety of other fragrances in my cabinet.
I live in the US, and my favorite Le Labo is Patchouli 24!
live in the US, you have permission to use my email address..
Fave Le Labo: Rose31
Fave Summer floral: Kai.
Thank you for the draw.
I live in the US. My favorite Le Labo is Rose 31. And also just right behind is Patchouli 24.
I live in the U.S. and you have permission to use my email.
I’ve not yet tried any Le Labo fragrances, and would love to try these. My old summer favorite was Annick Goutal Songes, but this summer I’ve been wearing the new Aqua Allegoria Nerolia Bianca non-stop.
I live in the US.
I don’t have any LeLabo scents, yet!
I don’t have any officially “summery” florals–I wear many of them year ’round–maybe Lipstick Rose?
Another comment I haven’t made? . . . I wonder how long it will take for my scents to impregnate my new house? When I move out, will I leave behind a waft of fragrance? I found a light in a thrift shop that smelled strongly of fragrance, and it made me wonder about the woman who’d owned it. 🙂
I live in the US. My favorite Le Labo so far is Vanille 44.
I live in the US.
Unfortunately, I haven’t had the pleasure of smelling any Le Labo fragrances yet. I would say my favorite summer floral scent at the moment is Vera Wang Sheer Veil.
Thanks for the giveaway!
I live in the US. My favorite summer floral is Hermes’ 24, Faubourg.
Thanks for the drawing!
I live in the US. I haven’t tried the Le labo line yet, but both scents sound great. Favorite summer floral at the moment would have to be Hermes Un Jardin Sur Le Toit.
Thanks!
I live in North Carolina (in the USA)! My favorite le labo scent is Neroli 36 but I’m a huge fan of ylang ylang so I am dying to try this scent!!
I live in the US and I’ve been dying to try these, though I haven’t explored the Le Labo line too much. My fave summer floral is Sweet Redemption.
I live in the US. Sadly, I have yet to try Le Labo but these sound like they would be a fabulous introduction! I adore creamy bittersweet florals for summer, like Annick Goutal Le Jasmine, Agent Provocateur, and SSS Jour Ensoleille (in my purse now!).
I live in the U.S. My favorite Le Labo is Patchouli 24 but I am really excited to try the Lys 41 because I cannot get enough of white florals these days. Thanks for the draw.
I live in the US and adore Iris 39. These both sound fantastic!
I live in the US. I managed to pick up a Bouquet Blanc candle when they did their line with Anthropologie a few years ago. It is quite nice, but a little too much in this summer heat. However, that it the same reason I’m loving my Après l’Ondee right now. I spray it on right before going outside and it actually blooms a little. I can’t get enough of it.
Thanks for the giveaway!
I live in the U.S.A. My favorite summer perfume is Gucci Envy (sadly discontinued) in either edt or edp. I have never smelled any Le Labo perfumes! I have a hunch I would love Lys 41, and I’m willing to be surprised by the Ylang. Fingers crossed! Thanks for doing this giveaway!
I live in the US. Thanks!
This summer, I’ve been fond of orange blossom – kind of spilled over from spring:)
I live in the US and my favorite Le Labo fragrance is Vanille 44 (Rose 31 is probably runner up).
Thanks for the opportunity! 🙂
I live in the US and my favorite is Labdanum 18. Thank you so much for the drawing 🙂
Lovely give away, thank you! I live in the US. Everything I’ve tried from Le Labo works surprisingly well for me. My favorites are Santal and Vanille.
I live in the US. I’m wearing Osmanthe Yunnan today. It’s perfect for stonefruit season! I think I’ll pair it with some apricots for dessert.
I live in the US
My favorite Le Labo is Patchouli 24.
I’m in the USA and my favorite Le Labo is Rose 31. This summer I’m wearing and loving Diptyque’s Eau de Lierre, so fresh and green!
I have yet to try a Le Labo, but I’m guessing Ylang 49 would be my favorite! 😛
I live in the US and my favorite summer fragrance is Bvglari Au The Vert.
Thanks!
I live in the U.S. and am so dying to try these–no Le Labo counters in my neck of the woods, sadly! But thanks to a hotel toiletries kit, I love Rose 31 (best hotel stay eva).
I do indeed live in the U.S. My favorite Le Labo is Iris 39, with Jasmin 17 running close behind.
I live in the U.S. and my fav. Le Labo is Patchouli 24
I live in the US and my favorite LeLabo is Vanille 44, although my ardor is considerably dimmed by its astronomical price.
Hi Robin, I live in the US, and permish to use email.
Have yet to try a Le Labo, but have sniffed at my neighborhood Anthropologie, so I know why they are popular. My favorite summer frag would be Armani Code Summer.
Thanks for the draw!!
Oooh! I live in the US, and, to my shame and disappointment, I’ve not worn a single Le Labo fragrance. I’m new to living with someone who doesn’t get headaches from perfume, so I’m a late bloomer.
Rose 31 was the perfume of choice of a friend, though, and I’ve been fixating slightly. Also Ylang 49 itself sounds incredible.
My favorite for sure is Vanille 44 followed by Poivre 23. My favorite summer perfume at the moment is Velvet Gardenia although my old time favorite is OJ’s Frangipani.
I am in the US 🙂
Definitely my favorite for the summer are Santal Massoia and Dior Homme. I am in the USA and you can use my email address to contact me.
Thanks!
I live in the US. I’m not very floral but kinda like AdP Mirto. Will be sampling some Le Labo based on the recent reviews, so thanks.
I live in the US. I haven’t had a chance to try any Le Labo fragrances, but the one I’m most interested in is Rose 31.
I live in the US. Rose 31 is my favorite…well, okay, it’s the only one I’ve smelled =). Travel-sized lotion bottles of it are made for the Fairmont Hotels and are placed in the women’s bathrooms.
I live in the USA, and my favorite Le Labo fragrances are Rose 31 and Iris 39. I own decants of both of them. Thank you for this generous draw!
I live in the USA. I like Le Labo’s Patchouli, its crazy intense. Haven’t tried the Rose, but would like to, and these two…
I live in the USA, and am dying to try these fragrances. I’ve been hearing really wonderful things about them! My favorite Le Labo fragrance so far is Patchouli 24, which on a cold day is like being in front of a wood fire–so warming and comforting.
I live in the USA. I haven’t tried all that many Le Labo perfumes, partly because of their ugly looks. I kind of like Patchouli 24, or which I have a decant. I rarely wear summer florals, but my wife swears by big white floral perfumes, even in the summer. (It’s nice to live in Maine!) But she’ll go for something like Bond No. 9’s Chelsea Flowers when it gets really hot.
I live in the US and you may contact me via e-mail. Patchouli 24 is my favorite Le Labo, though I still have a sample pack of the line’s perfume oils that I need to dip into. My favorite summer floral is probably Diptyque Olène.
Hi Robin.
Favorite summer floral is Nuit de Tubereuse, even thought it’s not terribly floral.
We are scent twins, so I’m excited to try Lys 41!
I live in the U.S.
Patchouli 24 so far! In the US. I caught a whiff of Lys and got interested. Read incredible things about Ylang and it’s a favorite note.
I am fascinated by Marjorie Rose’s musing about perfuming spaces and objects over time in a lasting way. And the other side of the coin: how environments (other than skin, paper) affect fragrances. I’ve spilled a few different perfumes on the hardwood floor. Bandit was stunning. I still think about that evening when I glance at a certain spot in my apartment. My place seems to love perfume as much as I do.
My favorite Le Labo is Labdanum 18 and my favorite summer floral is vintage White Shoulders. I live in the US.
I live in the US. My favorite Le Labo is Vetiver 46. Thank you for the draw!
I live in the US. Here is my (c) comment. Today’s New York TImes has a whole article on luxury home fragrance products (including a Labo diffuser which looks like a bullet to the decorators’ interviewed).
I live in the US. My favorite is Rose 31. Thanks so much!
Thanks as always Robin for the great draws !
I live in the US and you may use my email in my account to contact me.
My favorite Le Labo frags are tied at Vanille 44 and Rose 31.
Best of luck everyone !
oh gosh, I’ve really wanted to try these! I live in the US and it’s difficult to choose a favorite among so many greats, but I would say Oud 27
What a nice giveaway, again. You’re great for doing this, R. I live in the US and I’d say my fave LL is a toss-up between Iris 39 and Fleurs d’Oranger 27.
Great giveaway. I live in the US and my favorite LL fragrance is Vanille 44. Thanks!
I live in the U.S. I haven’t tried Le Labo. My favorite summer floral is Fendi Palazzo (sigh).
What a cool giveaway! I’d love to explore the Le Labo line more – I’m not very familiar with it, so I don’t have a favorite.
I like orange blossom fragrances in the summer and my current favorite is L’AP Seville a l’Aube.
I live in the US. Thanks Robin!
I live in the U.S. and my favorite Le Labo is Patchouli 24. I definitely want to try these two since reading about them. Thanks for the draw!
I live in the US, and of course you have permission to use my email.
1) I haven’t tried many Le Labos, but I liked Musc 25, Neroli 36 and Fleurs d’Oranger [whatever the number is].
2) For florals: I’ve been layering Lush Lust over Atelier Cologne Vanille Insensee. Might sound a bit heavy for summer but it’s really nice. I’m also enjoying Diptyque L’Ombre dans L’Eau right now.
Both these Labos are on my short list and I would be so grateful for either. In the mean time I will have to content myself with Pacifica’s Malibu Lemon Blossom which is a more nuanced version of the Love’s Lemon Fresh of my California childhood. And I still live in California
I live in the US. The only Le Labo I’ve tried thus far is Rose 31, which I liked but decided was not for me.
For some reason, despite the southern heat, I’ve been wearing Youth Dew a lot…
I live in the US! My favorite Le Labo is the Poivre 23!
Thanks for the draw 🙂
I live in the US. My favorite Le Labo fragrance is Tubereuse 40. I’m wearing Un Jardin Apres La Mousson a lot lately, and I’m trying to find some AA Nerolia Bianca without success!
HI,
Live in the US. I liked the vetiver from Le Labo although it was a very small sniff. I would love to try anohter of their offereings.
I live in the United States. In sunny Alabama where I’m too far away from Le Labo at Barney’s. I would love either. My all time favorite frag is Le Labo’s LABDANUM. I smelled that and it’s been hard to beat so far. Only I’m running out and I can never get a chance to try their samples. I’m not allowed to go to Barney’s site. 🙂
I really want to win. I’m gonna meditate on it and pray jahahhah
I haven’t tried any Le Labos! My favorite summer florals (if you can call them that) – Chanel No 19 EDT and Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Lys Soleia!Oh and sorry…I live in the U.S.!
I live in the US and my favorite Le Labo perfumes are Iris 39 and Rose 31.
Thanks for the opportunity, Robin! I live in the US and like Rose 31.
I live in the U.S. where, in approximately 16 months, there will finally be a Nordstrom. Glory be!
I haven’t fallen for a Le Labo yet. On summer evenings, floral Sabi or Boucheron work for me, but during the heat of the day, give me JM Fresh Mint Leaf or PdN Cologne Sologne.
I live in the US and I like to wear Laura Tonatto Fior d’Arancio and AG Petite Cherie in the summer, among others. Thank you for the drawing!
Live in the U.S., favorite summer florals are Iris Nobile edt and Houbigant Orangers en Fleurs.
I live in the US. Don’t have a favorite Le Labo. Don’t wear many florals in the summer, but if I had to wear one, it would probably be Tenere.
I live in the US and would love to sample Lys 41 and Ylang 49! In the summer I find I chase anything with orange blossom in it… a bit embarrassing really! I line up all sorts of summer lovelies to choose from, but golly darn it if I don’t go for something with orange blossom 6 out of 7 days a week. It is a weakness.
I live in the US, and have yet to try a Labo fragrance, so I’d be so happy to win! Currently obsessing over Marni and eagerly waiting for it to be more widely available.
I live in the US. Favorite Le Lano is Rose 31
US resident who doesn’t have a favorite Le Labo. I am, however, a fan of ylang. Thanks for the draw! 🙂
I live in the US and my favorite LeLabo is Patchouli 24.
I live in the US; I have never had the opportunity to try anything fron Le Labo; for now, my fab summer scent is Ineke’s Angel Trumpet. Thanks for this opportunity!
I live in the US, and am impatiently waiting to try my first Le Labo: Iris 39 (a sample I ordered last week). Thanks for the draw!
I live in the US and have not found a LeLabo to love. Yet. I did like the Iris 39 scent enough to get a small decant. Both Ylang and Lys sound right up my alley, so hoping these will be new loves! Thanks for the draw.
I live in the US. I have not tried leLabo yet; however, after reading the review of the Ylang, I was just about to order a sample. LOVE ylang ylang! SOTD is Hermes 24, FBRG, a great summer scent.
I live in the U.S and remember liking music 25 the most (at the Venice, CA showroom)
These sure have been the buzz of the community, and I’d love to see what all the (deserved!) fuss is about! I live in the US and you may use the email address in my profile.
Choose just one summer floral? Well, this year it’s SL Tubereuse Criminelle. I’m going big this year. My favorite Le Labo is Labnadum 18. Soooo goooood…
And, lastly, a question: any good apple blossom scents? A soliflore, if possible. For several years I’ve tried effleurage on our own apple blossoms, with disastrous effects. Any help is appreciated!
I live in the US, and I’d love to get to try these after reading the fabulous reviews here. The only Le Labo I have really tried out is Labdanum 18, which I do like, but not right now in the 90+ heat. My favorite summer (or any other time) floral is Shiseido White Rose.
My favorite is Labdanum 18 and I’m actually enjoying Yves Rocher Comme Une Evidence L’Eau which is a bit citrus and a teeny bit floral. It’s easy to wear in the heat, and I don’t have to worry that I’m killing my co-workers.
I live in the US. My fave Labo is the Patchouli although I do like the Iris as well (my favorite note!)
I live in the US and I am dying (dying!!!) to try Ylang 49. It’s literally SCREAMING out “BUY ME!!!” every time I read a review.
I looooove Iris 39. It’s my favorite Le Labo. Those folks over there are geniuses. Their perfumes are complex, beautiful and they last all day on my skin.
I live in the U.S. and my favorite Le Labo is Rose 31. I’m still looking for a favorite summer scent.
I live in the US and my favorite summer floral is Zeta.
I live in the US, and have never tried any of the Le Labos. My favorite summer florals thus far are Elie Saab and Autumn Breeze by A Wing and a Prayer. I’d love to find a lily perfume that works on a sunny day.
I live in the US, and I have been meaning to explore the Le Labo line the next time that I am in Barneys. My favorite summer floral right now is the new Osmanthus by Jo Malone. It has made me want to sniff more osmanthus scents.
Thanks.
I live in the U.S. and my favorite Le Labo is Iris 39! Thanks for the draw.
My favorite is Le Labo Jasmine 17. I am really looking forward to both of the new ones!
I live in the USA.
I live in the U.S.
When Le Labo fragrances were first launched, I bought a sample of each one and ended up buying Iris 39. Then several years later I tried a sample of Santal 33 and bought a bottle of that as well. However, all my friends fell in love with it and bought it and then I lost some interest in it as we all smelled of the same scent. Recently I fell in love with and Rose 31 and would have to say it is my favorite Le Labo scent. However, I have always been drawn to scents composed with ylang and am anxious to try that on and also the Lys. Thank you for the draw.
Yes, I do live in the USA 🙂
Fav is definitely Labdanum 18 (use the oil) and Rose 31 a close 2nd. Have not tried the new ones just released and am intrigued by the Vanilla one which I hear is only sold in Paris (?)
Please enter me in the draw.
Thank you.
I live in the U.S. and even if I didn’t I’d be tempted to move here to get the chance to win the Ylang! I like Le Labo Neroli and Jasmin, but my favorite summer “floral” is Chanel’s Cologne (it counts, it really does!)
I liv ein the US. I have not tried any of the Le Labo fragrances yet, but I have read many of the reviews recently! My favorite summer florals right now are Jour d’Hermes and SSS Jour Ensoleille. Thanks for the draw!
I would really love to get Ylang 49 for the obvious reason that is my name (not to mention that I love ylang scent). But, I don’t live in the U.S. So, I just sit here in the corner jealously looking at all of you who live in the U.S.
j/k
Good luck to all of you!!
I live in the U.S. favorite summer floral is a tie between VCA Muguet Blanc and Guerlain Lys Soleia. Thanks!!!
I live in the US, and my favorite Le Labo is Vanille 44. Thanks for the opportunity to enter! 🙂
I live in the U.S.A. and you have permission to use my email.
My favourite Le Labo is Santal 33. Thanks!
I live in the U.S. I haven’t tried Le Labo, but would like to. My favorite summer fragrance right now is PdN L`Eau à la Folie.
I live in the U.S.
One of my favorite Le Labos is Vanille 44…but….not in the summer!
Bergamote 22 (half of Vanille 🙂 is great for summer.
I live in the U.S. I’ve been wearing Jour d’Hermes a lot this summer. Never tried Le Labo. Thanks for the drawing!
I live in the U.S.
In fact, I live in Oakland and I am planning to make my first visit to the Le Labo store in SF soon. I wasn’t familiar with the brand until I read about it on NST!
I live in the U.S.
My favorite summer floral is Aqua Allegoria
Flora Nymphéa.
My favorite Le Labo is Patch 24 (by a long shot!), although I have been dying to try the Ylang.
Favorite summer floral…. hmmm…. I’d have to say that I like a number of the Guerlains about equally: Chamade, Jardin de Bagatelle, Nahema, Mahora. Is Jicky a floral? Special mention to SSS Champagne de Bois.
I live in the U. S. and you may use the email associated with this account.
I live in the US and you can use my email. My fav Le Labo is Iris 39
I live in the US.
a) your favorite Le Labo fragrance
I have only tried Patchouli 24, but I thought it was fabulous- so Patchouli 24
c) something else you’ve been dying to post in a comment.
I’m wearing Incense Pure from SSS today, and it’s great!
Happy first day of summer!
I haven’t had the opportunity to try any of the Le Labos yet. My favorite summer fragrance EL Tuberose Gardenia. I live in the US. Thanks for the giveaway!
I live in the US & you have permission to use my email.
Iris 39 and Patchouli 24 have got to be the best le labo frags- but, personally, I love oud 27. Thanks for the giveaway.
I live in the US!
My favorite Le Labo fragrance is Aldehyde 44. Thank you for the draw!
I live in the U.S. and haven’t tried La Labo scents yet. Used to love AG Eau d’Hadrien in summer but I’m loving the fresh green florals like Rose Anonyme and Sous le Toit de Paris this year.
I’m in the US, and my favorite Le Labo scent is Tubereuse 40 (trying to save up for a full bottle), and I’d wear it a lot in the summer! Thanks for the giveaway!
I live in the U.S.
My favorite summer floral is discontinued: Dazzling Silver by Estee Lauder. I still manage to find some via friends occasionally, and it brings back great summer memories…so artificial, like being in the float shop at the lake!
I live in the US and would love to try Le Labo scents as I’ve never have. I’m still trying to find a favorite summer scent but frequently reach for my Carthusia Mediterraneo. Would love to find something a little more daring.
I live in the US. Haven’t tried Le Labo yet. I’m not sure whether it’s a “summer” fragrance or not, but I guess my favorite light floral would be Diptyque’s Eau Rose.
Love Patchouli 24. It never fails to get a compliment from men of a “certain age” which is quite nice as I fall in the category of Old Maid by my co-workers standards. 🙂 Poo on them I say. I am in the States… but deployed.
I live in the US. My favorite Le Labo fragrance is Iris 39!
I live in the US and my favorite Le Labo fragrances are Iris 39 and Vanille 44. Thanks for the draw!!
I live in the US! My favorite Le Labo is definitely Santal 33. It is just addicting!
I live in the US, and my favorite Le Labo is my bottle of Rose31 that was signed by Eddie at a Barney’s grand opening.
Hi Robin. I live here in the U.S. My favorite Le Labo is Neroli 36 and recently ordered a sample of Odin’s 04 Petrana. A very nice powdery floral musk fragrance. Thanks
Thanks for this draw! I live in the U.S. and I like both Le Labo Ambrette 9 and Labdanum 18. I’d love to try these new ones! Thanks.
Hi Robin– thanks for the draw….you can use my email and I live in the USA, etc, etc, I don’t currently have a fave Le Labo–maybe one of these will be a darling! My favorite summer frags are most of the Le Jardin Sur line (especially Sur le Toit) and Ineke’s Poet’s Jasmine. Of course it hasn’t gotten really hot yet, so that will change no doubt.
I live in the US and have not tried any Le Labo fragrances, although Patchouli 24 has been on my to-try list for a long time.
I am that odd person who doesn’t change fragrances based on the season-I just wear less. Since I try to avoid the heat this works for me!
I live in the US. I bought Vanille in Paris on my honeymoon, so it is my favorite for sentimental reasons!
I have only tried Patchouli, which I like a lot. Always hoping to try more! I live in the U.S. Thanks!
Hello
Yes, I live in the US. My favorite from this company so far is Poivre 23 although I have not tried them all.
thanks!
I live in the US and my favorite Le Labo is Oud 27!
