BENJOIN 19
A resinous amber-woody fragrance built around benzoin and olibanum, sharpened by cedar and softened by amber and musk.
Scent Development and Character
A resin-forward amber-woody scent that opens with luminous, smoky olibanum and a dry, crisp resin bite, then settles into creamy benzoin, cedar, amber, and musk. It feels austere at first, then warmer and softer as it stays close to the skin.
Who It Is For and When to Wear It
Best worn close to the skin in cool weather or evening settings; the texture is intimate rather than expansive, with a dry resin opening and a smooth, lingering base. Best in cool weather. Sillage is estimated as soft to moderate, with long-lasting wear.
Perfumer and Bottle
Released in 2013, this is presented as Eau de Parfum and credited to Undisclosed. Standard Le Labo glass bottle with a simple label; official sizes include 1.5 ml discovery, 15 ml, 50 ml, and 100 ml, with 500 ml refill format also listed by the brand.
