What is the difference between a label and a property in Neo4j?

I am new to Neo4j, but very experienced in developing and developing RDBMSs. Trying to understand the difference between a label and a property in Neo4j. Nothing that I read seems to make a distinction between the two, in fact, I believe that the terms are often used interchangeably. I suppose there must be a difference, otherwise the Wise Men and Women of Neo4j would not have created both ...

Thank you for your help!

A Property is a key-value pair that is part of a relationship or Node.

A Label is the name / tag / category assigned to one or more nodes. Note that nodes with similar labels do not necessarily have the same set of property keys.

. ( API- - pre-v2, pre-Labels - ).
