Le Labo Cuir 28 Sample
Wear Cuir 28 first, decide later
Cuir 28 is a perfume from Le Labo. Our data holds its name and its house, not its notes, and we leave it at that. Skin, weather and habit change how any perfume comes across, and a sample shows you your version of it. What reads as sweet on one person can read as dry on another. Your own nose gets used to a scent quickly, so ask someone near you what they notice.

How it unfolds
-
No pyramid here
Our record for Cuir 28 stops at brand and name. Notes, families and seasons are left out here because we cannot verify them. Try it on a normal day, not only on a special one, to see whether it fits your routine. Warm skin and cool skin can bring out different sides, so try both if you can.

Asking for this sample
Cuir 28 is not on the shelf as a sample yet. Leave your e-mail address in the form on this page and we know someone is waiting for it. When it can be filled, the sizes appear here. Smell it right after applying and again later in the day, because the first minutes rarely tell the whole story.
-
The sample itself
For this sample, FragranceGems takes Cuir 28 from the original bottle and fills a glass spray vial with it. The label on the vial is ours. Three sizes mean you decide how long you want to test. Keep the vial away from heat and direct sunlight, as you would a full bottle.
Testing it
How to test it, for whom and why
How to test it
We have no tags that say when Le Labo Cuir 28 fits best, which leaves the choice to you. Wear it on at least three different days before you decide. Ask someone you trust what they notice, because your own nose adapts quickly.
Who it is for
There is no audience on file for Cuir 28, which leaves it open to anyone curious. The sample is for anyone who wants to know a perfume before owning it. A label like that is a hint, not a rule: wear what suits you.
Why try Le Labo Cuir 28 as a sample first
A full bottle is a long commitment, and a sample lets you make it with open eyes. To be clear, this is not an official brand sample. FragranceGems decants it from the original bottle and puts its own label on the vial; Le Labo plays no role.

Frequently asked
What does the sample look like?
It is a small glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml with our own label on it. It sprays like a bottle, so you apply Cuir 28 the way you normally would.
Why does this page list no notes?
No note list is on record with us for Le Labo Cuir 28, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
Will Cuir 28 be the same on me as on someone else?
Probably not exactly. Skin, weather and the amount you apply all change how a perfume comes across, which is the reason to wear Le Labo Cuir 28 yourself before deciding.
The brand
About Le Labo
Le Labo began in 2006 as a small laboratory in Nolita, New York, opened by two friends, Fabrice Penot and Eddie Roschi. The names follow a formula, a raw material plus a number, and they rarely tell the whole story: Santal 33 is as much cardamom, iris and violet as sandalwood, and in Patchouli 24 birch smoke takes over. That is why samples matter with this house. A 10 ml decant shows what the name leaves out, on your skin, over several days.
- Opened in New York in 2006 by friends Fabrice Penot and Eddie Roschi, first on Elizabeth Street
- A name is a raw material plus a number, as in Santal 33
- Bottles are labelled with a place, a preparation date and a name

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
