What it is: Poivre 23 includes notes of cistus labdanum, incense, patchouli Indonesia, gaiaic wood, pepper Bourbon, Australian sandalwood, vanilla absolute and styrax resin. This combination is dark and resinous, unsweet and warm, a bit masculine leaning and rough around the edges.
Fragrance story: Poivre 23 - London Exclusive translates into Pepper 23, and it’s Le Labo’s pepper statement. Why pepper? (And we’re talking true Bourbon Pepper, the crown jewel of peppers.) Because it’s the spice of all spices, widely used in perfumery, and we wanted pepper to finally get what it deserves: the limelight. It is very warm, ultra spicy, truly ambery, and it’s only for London for most of the year.
Style: Amber, Woody, Warm Spicy.
Notes: Pepper, Labdanum, Vanilla, Styrax, Incense, Gaiac Wood, Patchouli.
