A fragrance conceived during Spain’s lockdown of 2020. An inspired scent about taking a moment to appreciate the seemingly mundane elements of the world around us. A concept that has become lost throughout time, a value of the space that exists in the ordinary. Romy set out to create a scent that sat in the grace and simplicity of everyday life. Part of the Go Collection, amidst the global pandemic, Romy decided that this fragrance should be an exploration of our familiar places.
Whilst appearing melancholic at first, the unspectacular is actually filled with hope, inspiration and solace. A fragrance in the present moment, the place where dreams are born. Wandering aimlessly, there is no place to be as there is no place you can go right now. There is beauty in the everyday. 27 87’s Flaneur romantically captures the feeling of gratitude for the common, the simple moments in life, and a value of the stillness of just being. A refreshing green floral fragrance with warm and cool elements ensuring it maintains the eclectic independent signature of 27 87.

ABOUT THE BRAND
Created in Barcelona in 2016 by Romy, 27 87 is utterly modern. With a young, creative and innovative force behind the range, 28 87 decided it was time for a more contemporary approach to fragrance that matched the taste and lifestyle of today’s generation. Minimalist design, unisex, long lasting and a focus purely on the most important factor – the smell. 27 87 stand for a new era of artistic perfumery whilst respecting and staying loyal to the standards of high end traditional craftsmanship.
HOW IT WEARS
Opening with notes of Bergamot and Linden Blossom, Flaneur is sharp, fresh and floral initially yet the Linden Blossom gradually warms the scent. The middle notes of Absinthe, Almond and Iris Butter create a gorgeous warm and cool tone, the green and slightly bitter tone of Absinthe is balanced gorgeously with the creaminess of Almond and Iris Butter. The base of Cashmere Wood, Grey Amber and Vetiver creates a gorgeously smooth overall depth to the scent.
LORE LOVES
Intended to be a part of the Go Line, Flaneur in fact does not go anywhere and we love this! With lockdowns all over the world, we love that 27 87 created a fragrance that takes in its everyday surroundings and finds beauty in the common day-to-day elements of life. The space where nothing new or exciting happens can sometimes be beautiful, much like this green, floral fragrance is.

OMG! I have had so many different fragrances and I’m fairly sure of the notes I like., however, some are not true to the hype and I’ve been very disappointed. NEVER anything from LORE. “Flaneur” is (for me) so beautifully blended. Very first hit was the Bergamot, then dries down to a soft, creamy, warm scent. The Cashmere Wood comes through in a dreamy, delicious way. When I saw one of the mid notes was Absinthe I got so excited and immediately reached for a ‘shot glass’ (had a similar reaction with Lubin “Gin Fizz”) but remembered although it is an alcohol, this one connects both top and base notes perfectly. If you love a truly feminine scent, I’d STRONGLY recommend this one. Get the LORE PROMISE! A fragrance for a mature woman. I’m OLD and love it❤️
