Le Labo Benjoin 19 Moscow is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Frank Voelkl. Le Labo's Benjoin 19 Moscow carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

Divisive yet adored, this is Le Labo's take on the classic resinous amber. Some call it pedestrian, others a masterpiece; everyone agrees it's overpriced. For fans of warm, subtly spiced wood, it's a cold-weather comfort, but don't expect a beast.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Benjoin 19 opens with a unique, almost effervescent zing, quickly settling into a luxurious blend of warm, slightly sweet benzoin and a dry, churchy frankincense. As it develops, a smooth, creamy cedar emerges, weaving through the resinous heart, eventually drying down to a soft, inviting amber and musk that feels both elegant and comforting. It's a journey from bright resin to a woody, musky embrace.
