Le Labo Rose 31 Eau de Parfum – 0.025 oz Small Sample

Le Labo Rose 31 Eau de Parfum challenges traditional fragrance lines by reimagining the iconic Centifolia rose. This micro-sample invites a scent that feels both refined and adventurous, blending floral ease with an undercurrent of warmth and mystery. The result is a fragrance story that unfolds differently on every wearer, offering a unisex experience that can pair with a wide range of styles and moments.

Fragrance creation and impression

At its core, Rose 31 intertwines the romantic aura of the Grasse rose with a chorus of warm, spicy, and woody notes. Cumin and olibanum (frankincense) introduce a subtle spice, while cedar provides a dry, resinous backbone. A touch of amber adds a gentle glow, making the composition feel intimate rather than overpowering. In the background, Gaïac wood and cistus lend a sensual, woody depth, lightly underscored by musky nuances that keep the scent softly present without becoming loud. This mix can read as both confident and enigmatic, inviting closer inspection rather than making a bold first impression.

Notes at a glance

• Core idea: alternating femininity and masculinity through Centifolia rose
• Warmth and spice: cumin and olibanum blend with cedar and amber
