The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Neroli 36 by Le Labo, launched in 2006 and crafted by perfumer Daphné Bugey, is an Oriental Floral scent that captures the essence of citrus and floral notes. The fragrance opens with a bright burst of orange blossom and aldehydes, followed by mandarin orange and jasmine, creating a fresh yet warm aroma. As it settles, musk and vanilla emerge, adding depth and sweetness to the composition. This distinctive blend makes Neroli 36 both inviting and sophisticated.

How to wear it

Apply one to two sprays — the aldehydic top notes are bright but fade within a couple of hours. The musky base develops over time, so it’s best worn during the day when the warmth can be fully appreciated.
