Baie 19 Parfum by Le Labo: Is It Overrated? Here’s My Honest Take
Baie 19 de Le Labo (Si vous etes un amateur comme moi des fragrances, il est pas impossible que ce nom ne soit pas inconnu! ) It twists fresh, organic notes inspired by the scent of rain hitting dry earth (petrichor) and has become its own name. But the question is, does it investing care? So I wanted to look at this and give you my thoughts.
NOTE: If you’re not quite ready to break the bank on a bottle, IMIXX Perfumes has an impressive dupe with Baie 19 as No.63 [hint].
Baie 19 Notes: A Symphony of Nature
Baie 19 is a green fragrance at its core. At the opening you can smell juniper berry and green leaves, giving a fresh nature scent. As it settles, you can identify the patchouli and ambroxan coming through, providing some layering with an earthy slight musk. Subtle but strong—great for the nature lover who wants a scent that isn’t too overpowering.
What Exactly is Petrichor?
One of the most interesting things is that Baie 19 was created to capture what petrichor smells like— rain when it first hits dry earth. Which makes for an almost shockingly fresh and clean scent(maintaining still a very natural/earthy feel) The ambroxan here is very prominent and helps set the tone for its wet, fresh feel offset by realistic earthy tones but never really feeling too synthetic or aquatic.
You need something fresh and not as heavy-give Le Labo Baie 19 a whirl, I mean its nothing like the other.
With fragrances such as Santal 33 and Another 13 in the Le Labo playbill, Baie is a unique proposition. Santal 33 seems always the best candidate for an ectoplasmic figure: smoky, sandalwood skin but Another 13 remains synthetic musky white.Which can be interpreted like (i.s.o.)
