This Not That: Le Labo Santal 33 Parfum

Someone asked me to cover fragrances a while back, so I wanted to share my everyday perfume. I received a sample of Le Labo with a Nordstrom order and instantly fell in love with the scent. However, since I like to wear perfume daily, I couldn’t justify spending over $200.

I tried a few Le Labo-inspired dupes, and the one from Dossier is unbelievable. I wish I could pinpoint exactly what makes it so addictive, but I can’t! I just want to bathe in it. It’s comforting, luxurious, and sexy. That might sound like a strange way to describe a perfume, but those are truly the vibes I get when I wear it.

I’m not typically a fan of overly floral perfumes so this one has fresh, slightly floral notes that blend beautifully with a warm mix of sandalwood and amber. I always get stopped and asked what I’m wearing whenever I have this on.

If $50 is still out of your budget, consider buying Fine’ry Jungle Santal. At $30, this is another great option.
