Le Labo has introduced “Camphor 25 (Shiu 25)” as the latest addition to its City Exclusive series, marking the brand’s 20th anniversary. Drawing inspiration from Beijing’s quiet spaces — timeworn craft workshops and tranquil courtyards — the fragrance captures the city’s character through steady, woody notes. Available at two Le Labo fragrance labs in Beijing, it follows the 2023 launch of Shanghai’s “City Exclusive Myrrhe 55” — an oriental woody fragrance reflecting that city’s complex, inclusive yet reserved character.
