No.08 Labdanum + Oak is an intense perfume steeped in steadiness and strength. It is built on a fortress base of sweet, aged English oakwood and resinous wild Labdanum. Elemi, fused with Black Pepper, is recruited to give a floral fire background. Vetyver offers power and structure, while exotic hints of Cardamon and Carrot Seed, Osmanthus Flower, and Yerba Maté play in the background. This is a smooth, suave perfume to be worn with self-assurance.
This 100% botanical perfume is made using only sustainable rare plant ingredients grown worldwide. It was handcrafted in Raer Atelier in Berlin.

THE BRAND
Raer Scents is a modern perfume house that does not compromise. It offers unique, handcrafted botanical scents made from the finest sustainable matières premières in the world.
Their journey began in 2017, when Raer Scents' Founder, Ted Rohn, sought a modern, special, and sustainable perfume. He could not find the perfect perfume, so he created it. He developed the proof-of-concept versions of their first Raer perfumes with a friend.
Raer's collection has grown to ten perfumes created with the same ideals.
Inspired by the Bauhaus tradition and the energy of Berlin, they make modern linear scents from rare traditional ingredients — sustainably grown and ethically harvested, of course. They value the process and the craft as much as their materials and the final product. They create their formulas without compromising on integrity, cost, or quality. They handcraft their perfumes using time-consuming ancient artisanal perfuming techniques. They handfill every bottle of Raer perfume at their Atelier in Berlin, across the river from Mies van der Rohe's Neue Nationalgalerie.
They chose to work directly with farmers and small producers worldwide to source ingredients, giving them time and resources to produce the best raw ingredients possible. They've started working with an organic farming collective in the South of France to plant their own ingredients and started wild foraging for some of their ingredients.
