The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2019, Bigarade 18 Hong Kong by Le Labo is a fragrance that captures the essence of its namesake city — vibrant and dynamic. Perfumer Daphné Bugey crafted this scent with a bright citrus opening, featuring notes like bigarade orange, bergamot, and neroli, which give way to a heart of lily and an intriguing base of musk, ambergris, and cedar. This composition is both fresh and complex, with a hint of animalic warmth that adds depth.
Apply Bigarade 18 Hong Kong with a light hand — the citrus top notes are bright but fleeting. Allow it to settle into its musky and woody base for a warm, lasting presence throughout the day.
