A disklabel, as they call it in parted(8) applies to a disk device. Or a LUN.

Or any other partitionable block device, such as a software RAID array or a loop device.

A LABEL= is a filesystem attribute, it's impossible to have one without a 
filesystem.

A swap area can have a LABEL but is not a filesystem.

It appears that GPT also supports a partition label, separate from any
filesystem label, and different from a BSD disklabel.

In blkid terminology this is called PARTLABEL (along with PARTUUID) to distinguish them from filesystem LABEL/UUID.
