Le Labo Tabac 28 Sample
Meet Tabac 28 on your own skin
On this page you find Le Labo Tabac 28, a perfume, as a decant. A note pyramid is not on file here, so this page makes no claims about how it should come across. Trying it as a sample first means your decision rests on wearing it, not on a description. Do not judge it next to other perfumes on the same arm, as they blur each other.

On the skin
How it unfolds
-
An honest gap
The notes of Tabac 28 are not in our files. That is not a judgement about the perfume, only about what we can state with certainty. What reads as sweet on one person can read as dry on another. Try it on a normal day, not only on a special one, to see whether it fits your routine.
-
Let us know
For now, Le Labo Tabac 28 can only be asked for. The form on this page records your interest in this perfume, and we make no promise about timing. Smell it right after applying and again later in the day, because the first minutes rarely tell the whole story.
-
Small size, same perfume
We fill Tabac 28 from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and label it ourselves. The sizes are 2, 5 or 10 ml. 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
No season or occasion is on record for Tabac 28, so let your own days decide. Test it on skin and not only on paper. Try it once at home and once outdoors, since air and temperature change the impression. Keep the rest of the vial for a second and third try in other weather.
Who it is for
There is no audience on file for Tabac 28, which leaves it open to anyone curious. It is for the careful chooser and for the curious one. Collectors use decants to explore widely without filling a shelf. If you already know the house, a decant lets you check whether this one fits next to what you own.
Why try Le Labo Tabac 28 as a sample first
A sample of Tabac 28 answers the two things that matter: whether you like it, and whether you still like it on the fifth wearing. FragranceGems fills it from the original bottle and labels it; it is not an official brand sample, and Le Labo has no part in it.

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 Tabac 28 the way you normally would.
Why does this page list no notes?
No note list is on record with us for Le Labo Tabac 28, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
Can I try Tabac 28 next to other samples?
Yes, and it helps. Wear one perfume per day, or one per arm at most, so the scents do not blur. Short notes after each wearing make the choice easier.
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.
