{"product_id":"le-labo-santal-33-eau-de-parfum-sample","title":"Le Labo Santal 33 Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eLe Labo Santal 33 is an Eau de Parfum that the brand pictures as a night alone on the plains of the American West, with firelight and a soft desert wind. Against that scene stand cardamom, iris and violet on one side and a smoky wood accord of Australian sandalwood and cedarwood on the other. It is a very specific mood, and a 10 ml decant lets you find out whether it is yours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCardamom, Iris, Violet, Australian sandalwood, Cedarwood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpice and a floral hint\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCardamom brings a cool, dry spice, while iris and violet add a powdery floral softness. The brand gives no top, heart and base for this perfume, only the five notes, so listen for them as one blend rather than as a sequence. Notice which of them you catch first on your own skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSmoky woods\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAustralian sandalwood with cedarwood is what the brand terms its smoky wood accord. The sandalwood is creamy and warm, the cedarwood dry and straight; between them they carry most of the weight. The brand also mentions spicy, leathery and musky nuances, though it names no further materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe mood behind it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEverything starts from the image of an open fire, drifting smoke and a sensual note that comes forward at night. Whether that reads as cosy or austere on you is exactly the kind of question a sample can answer, because the same smoke feels different on different skins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCooler weather and evenings suit it best. Put it on warm skin at the neck and wrists, then leave it for a few minutes before you form an opinion. The woods are dense, so begin with a light hand, and if you want to be thorough, wear it on two different evenings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuited to anyone who wants woods that are dry and smoky, with spice and a little powder, not sweetness. Quiet evenings and dressed-up occasions are its settings, and it works as a first sandalwood. Lovers of citrus or sugary gourmands may find it too serious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Le Labo Santal 33 as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA scent built on a mood is a matter of personal reaction: the same smoke can feel cosy or austere. Le Labo keeps the list to five notes, so there is little to hide behind. Our 10 ml decant is filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us, not by Le Labo. It is not a brand sample.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat is in the decant?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSantal 33 Eau de Parfum, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle into a 10 ml glass spray vial and labelled by us. We are not affiliated with Le Labo, and the brand has no part in the decant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDoes it have a top, heart and base?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe brand names five notes without splitting them into tiers, so the sample is best judged as one blend that slowly shifts. Wear it long enough to notice what stays on your skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs it only for cold weather?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSmoke and wood suit cool weather and evenings, but your skin and climate decide. Testing it on a warmer day as well shows whether it turns too heavy for you.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Le Labo","offers":[{"title":"2 ml","offer_id":67693352419482,"sku":"DG-LLA-SANTAL-33-002ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":67693352452250,"sku":"DG-LLA-SANTAL-33-005ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":67693320274074,"sku":"DG-LLA-SANTAL-33-010ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0782\/5938\/8570\/files\/le-labo-santal-33-eau-de-parfum-sample.jpg?v=1791507984","url":"https:\/\/decantgems.eu\/products\/le-labo-santal-33-eau-de-parfum-sample","provider":"DecantGems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
