Story & heritage
This one is dark. A good, addictive, warm dark, as if the humid summer underwoods, their seeds and resins, were sprinkled with layers of musks and sweetened with drops of vanilla. It evokes the smell of warm skin and resinous wood. The perfumer’s notes say orange flower absolute, the unique cedar atlas, styrax resins, absolute tonka, and musks... We say TONKA 25.
Le Labo (French: the lab) is a slow perfumery brand born in Grasse, France, based in New York City and owned by Estée Lauder. Le Labo was founded in 2006 in New York City by two friends. It was purchased by Estée Lauder Companies in 2014. Le Labo fragrances are named after the principal scent note and the total number of ingredients combined to make them.
Materials & craft
The composition leans on musk, tonka, orange for a citrus trail that stays present without feeling heavy.
How to choose & style
Wear it for daytime clarity; it reads especially well with clean tailoring and light layers.
