Thé Noir 29
Eau de parfum
An ode to the black tea leaf, between fig, bay and woods.
Thé Noir 29 honours tea, both the leaf itself and the skill of those who work it. The fragrance constantly swings between freshness and depth, softness and strength.
On one side, the light of bergamot, fig and bay leaves; on the other, the depth of cedar, vetiver and musk. A special extract of black tea leaves closes the composition and gives its base a dry, leafy impression, recalling hay and tobacco.

Thé Noir 29 in detail
Le Labo, a New York house devoted to hand formulation, composes with Thé Noir 29, from its Classic Collection, an ode to the black tea leaf: a dry, slightly fruity aromatic fragrance in which tea meets fig, bay laurel and woods.
The house lists its notes without sorting them into stages. Tea is its subject, with its smoky, woody accents. Bergamot brightens it, fig brings a fruity, milky softness, and bay laurel an aromatic, green touch. Cedarwood, vetiver and musk form a dry, clean base.
Thé Noir 29 is worn in autumn and winter, by day or by night: at the office, in a tea room, or on a quiet evening.
Three aromatic fragrances in our catalogue come close: Viking by Creed shares bergamot, cedarwood, vetiver and musk; Sedley by Parfums de Marly brings together bergamot and musk in a mintier register; Basilico & Fellini by Vilhelm Parfumerie pairs fig and vetiver around basil.
