For your labels, when you configured Confidential, what encryption settings did you set the label to? The encryption settings you configured will be crucial to whether or not the recipient can access the file, and if they can, what level of access they will have.
The sharing process would best be done by sharing it as a link through OneDrive or SharePoint, depending on where it is stored. If you are not familiar with this process, this link should help:

If you'd like to send your configurations as a direct message, you can, and I will reply to this thread.
