Le Labo has been collaborating outside the fragrance world of late with such partners as Violet Grey and now with the edgy fashion retailer, Opening Ceremony.

Celebrated for his flamboyant and daring floral arrangements, Thierry Boutemy.has left his print on everything from film to fashion, creating works for Film maker Sofia Coppola (Marie Antointette) and  Fashion Designer Dries Van Noten.

"Le Labo Fragrances decided to contribute to Opening Ceremony's partnership with Thierry Boutemy by creating a very limited edition fragrance (100 bottles only) for the event. Geranium 30, developed with French perfumer who studied botany and phytology,  Barnabé Fillion, is a haphazard-seeming but impossibly artful bouquet of flowers (geranium, jasmin…) which, in a way, is Boutemy's own floral installation style in a bottle. Impossibly artful" because of the dangerous balance between the flowers and the spices (baie rose, poivre long…) which brings to the one who wears Geranium 30 the permanent feeling of walking in a perfectly arranged mad, wild garden…"

 It is handmade in Le Labo's signature glass bottles, with custom-printed floral labels that feature decorations by M. Boutemy. Le Labo Geranium 30 is $240 for 100 ml Eau de Parfum, and can be found at Opening Ceremony.
