Le Labo 2006 EDP
Labdanum 18
Le Labo Labdanum 18 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2006, created by Maurice Roucel. Labdanum 18 settles into a heart of Balsam, Musk, Resins, and Patchouli. Le Labo's Labdanum 18 carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.
Labdanum 18 is a divisive animalic musk that's either a cosy, sophisticated baby powder bomb or a challenging, almost offensive 'petting zoo' scent. It's not for everyone, but if it works with your skin chemistry, it's an addictive and much-loved modern classic.What our verdicts mean →

Profile
Composition
Timeline
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.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Best Occasions
Its warmth, sweetness, and prominent animalic notes make it better suited for intimate dates or formal evening wear rather than a professional office. While some find it comforting casually, its intensity can be too much for everyday wear or active sport.
