Story & heritage
Within the lexicon of floriography — the secret language of flowers meticulously preserved in Victorian-era texts — the violet evades easy explanation. Across history, violets have symbolized a delightfully paradoxical bouquet of meaning, standing for both burning passion and wide-eyed innocence, steadfast strength and poetic delicacy, measured wisdom and persistent optimism. VIOLETTE 30 is an ode to the undefinable contrasts in a single specimen. Centered around the rarer, shadow-seeking white violet – at once crystalline and untethered – it pairs verdant green floral notes with white tea notes, cedarwood, and a touch of guaiacwood. Familiar yet unknown, it is a study in saying yes to contradiction; a call to reclaim and embrace our many multitudes.
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.
