Le Labo Another 13

Eau de Parfum · 50 ml

Musk with spike and shine

Another 13 began as a commission from AnOther Magazine, set in motion through the Colette boutique and the magazine's editor-in-chief. The 50 ml Eau de Parfum rests on ambroxyde, which the brand calls a synthetic animal musk, with jasmine and moss added for spike and shine. The note list is short: ambroxyde, jasmine and moss.

How it unfolds

  1. A magazine commission

    Another 13 has an unusual origin for a perfume: AnOther Magazine commissioned it, with the Colette boutique and the magazine's editor-in-chief setting it in motion. When Colette closed, Le Labo moved the scent into its Classic Collection, where it now stands among the house's Eau de Parfum fragrances.

  2. Ambroxyde at the centre

    The brand builds the scent on ambroxyde and calls it a synthetic animal musk. That points to a warm, skin-like musk rather than a floral or fruity centre. Le Labo says nothing more about this material, so read the rest of the composition as something that works around it.

  3. Jasmine and moss

    The brand introduces jasmine and moss with the words 'such as', so the list may not be complete. Their job is stated plainly: to give the musky base spike and shine. Jasmine lifts the musk with a white-floral brightness, and moss adds a dark green, slightly damp edge.

Wearing it

When, who and why

Light touch, close to the skin

A musk-based Eau de Parfum stays near the skin, so it fits ordinary days: the office, a long lunch, a quiet evening. Start with one or two sprays on the neck or the inner wrists, and add more only if you want the scent to be noticed from a distance.

Who it is for

Anyone who wants a musk-led perfume that stays close and keeps things simple: a flicker of jasmine, a green edge, no bouquet. It suits people who find sweet or heavy scents tiring and those who want something calm for working days. Fans of rich, dessert-like perfumes will find it too restrained.

Why choose Le Labo Another 13

The story is specific and traceable: a magazine commission, a boutique that has since closed, and then a place in the Classic Collection. The formula is short on detail, three materials with the brand's own 'such as', but the idea is clear. The Eau de Parfum comes in 50 ml.

Questions

Frequently asked

Which concentration and size is Another 13?

An Eau de Parfum, here in 50 ml. It belongs to the brand's Classic Collection, its range of Eau de Parfum fragrances.

What is the character in one line?

A musky scent built on ambroxyde, which the brand calls a synthetic animal musk, with jasmine and moss adding spike and shine.

Where and when does it work?

Day to day: at work, over lunch, on quiet evenings. A musk-led Eau de Parfum is easy to wear, and one or two sprays are enough to begin with.

Does it make a good gift?

For someone who likes quiet, musky perfumes and a good story, yes: the magazine commission is part of the scent. Less suited to lovers of sweet perfumes.

    • Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
