MyLO opens with a zesty splash of yellow mandarin and bergamot, rapidly giving way to a prominent white lily heart. Iris adds a dry, powdery texture that soft-focuses the floral edges, while a base of benzoin and vanilla provides a subtle, ambery warmth on skin.
Main Accords
10 MAPPEDThe white floral accord leads with clean lily and jasmine, avoiding heavy indolic weight. As the citrus accord fades during the first half hour, soft spicy pink pepper blends into a powdery iris haze. Eventually, the amber, vanilla, and musk accords merge into a smooth, warm skin trail.

Fragranxe Review
EDITORIAL“Laboratorio Olfattivo MyLO Review: Soft White Lily For Daily Wear”
MyLO starts with a crisp, sparkling burst of citrus that hits the nose immediately upon spraying. Yellow mandarin and bergamot lead the charge alongside sharp lemon, giving the top a brisk, sunny profile. A subtle prickle of pink pepper cuts through the citrus blend, adding a soft spice to the top notes. During the first five minutes, this combination can feel slightly sharp, giving off a brief vibe reminiscent of hairspray. Thankfully, that initial synthetic bite calms down quickly as the alcohol evaporates.
As the bright citrus notes begin to settle, the true core of the scent emerges. White lily takes center stage, surrounded by delicate jasmine and a touch of fresh rose. The florals feel clean, airy, and free of any dirty or indolic weight that sometimes accompanies heavy white blossom perfumes. Iris plays an essential supporting role here, injecting a dry, papery powderiness that tempers the sweetness of the lily and keeps the middle accords feeling refined and structured.
On skin, the transition from the floral heart to the resinous base happens gradually over the second hour. Warm benzoin and vanilla begin to weave through the white lily, smoothing out any remaining sharp edges. The texture shifts from crisp floral to a cozy, ambery creaminess. White amber and musk anchor the drydown, creating a soft, skin-hugging trail that feels comforting without becoming sticky or cloying.
Performance with MyLO is restrained and intimate rather than room-filling. On clean skin, expect between four and six hours of total longevity before it fades completely. Projection remains at arm's length for about an hour before drawing closer to the body. This moderate footprint makes it ideal for warm spring days, air-conditioned office environments, or casual daytime outings where you want to smell clean without distracting people around you.
Although Laboratorio Olfattivo releases MyLO as a unisex creation, the prominent white lily and powdery iris give it a traditional feminine lean. Fragrance enthusiasts who appreciate discreet, skin-hugging florals will find plenty to enjoy here. Conversely, buyers hunting for a massive projection monster, a deep oriental amber, or a heavily woody composition will likely find this profile too soft and unpretentious.
Perfumer Luca Maffei crafted a pleasant, versatile daytime floral that pairs cheerful citrus with an ambery musk base. It does not try to shock or push boundaries, choosing instead to deliver a clean, uplifting wear experience. If you need an uncomplicated, polite spring scent for daily use, MyLO is well worth sampling on skin.
FAQs
What does Laboratorio Olfattivo MyLO smell like?+
MyLO smells like a bright white lily wrapped in fresh citrus and soft amber. It opens with yellow mandarin, bergamot, and pink pepper before revealing a heart of white lily, iris, and jasmine. The scent settles into a cozy base of vanilla, benzoin, and clean musk.
How does the opening of MyLO differ from its drydown?+
The opening hits with a sharp, tangy burst of lemon and yellow mandarin with a slight hairspray edge. As it dries down over two hours, the citrus fades, allowing white lily and powdery iris to merge into a warm, creamy benzoin and vanilla skin scent.
How long does MyLO last on skin?+
MyLO provides moderate longevity, lasting between 4 and 6 hours on skin. On clothing, the floral white lily and musk notes can linger slightly longer, up to 8 hours, making it suitable for a standard workday or morning outing.
What is the sillage and projection of MyLO?+
MyLO projects within arm's length for the first hour after application. After that initial period, it quickly pulls back into an intimate skin scent, making it an excellent choice for individuals who prefer subtle fragrances that do not fill a room.
What is the best season to wear MyLO?+
Spring and early summer are the ideal seasons for MyLO. The combination of sparkling citrus top notes and airy white lily thrives in mild temperatures between 60 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit, whereas severe winter cold muffles its soft projection.
What occasions suit MyLO best?+
MyLO fits casual daytime occasions, office work environments, and weekend brunches. Its soft white floral accord and clean musk drydown keep it polite and unpretentious, so you can wear it around sensitive colleagues without causing irritation.
Is MyLO leaning male, female, or truly unisex?+
While Laboratorio Olfattivo markets MyLO as unisex, the core note of white lily alongside rose and powdery iris gives it a traditional feminine lean. However, men who enjoy clean, citrusy floral scents can easily wear it in warm weather.
Who is the target audience for MyLO?+
This fragrance targets enthusiasts and casual wearers looking for a polite, easy-to-wear white floral. It suits people who appreciate understated niche perfumery, light skin scents, and compositions crafted by perfumer Luca Maffei.
Can you layer MyLO with other fragrances?+
Yes, MyLO layers well with simple woody or citrus fragrances. Pair it with a vetiver or cedar base to add grounding masculine weight, or layer it over a pure vanilla scent to amplify the creamy benzoin in the drydown.
What fragrances are similar to MyLO?+
MyLO shares similarities with Melt Season Medog in its bright citrus opening, though Medog is greener. Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue offers a comparable breezy drydown feel, while Frederic Malle Lys Mediterranee presents a bolder, ocean-salty white lily note.
