Floris Special No.127, Sample
Special No.127 by Floris is a Citrus Aromatic fragrance that elegantly bridges the gap between time and trends, offering a composition that has captivated since its inception in 1890. This unisex scent opens with the vibrant zest of bergamot and orange, their bright and uplifting aromas mingling with the clean, herbaceous touch of lavender. Petitgrain, with its green and slightly woody nuances, adds an intriguing depth to the citrusy top notes, setting the stage for a sophisticated olfactory journey.
As the fragrance evolves, a heart of floral splendour emerges. Neroli, with its fresh and honeyed sweetness, intertwines with the soft, powdery elegance of rose and the exotic allure of ylang-ylang. Geranium lends a slightly minty, rosy facet that enhances the floral bouquet, creating a harmonious yet dynamic heart that is both warm and inviting.
In the dry-down, the scent reveals its base of musk and patchouli, grounding the composition with a sensual, earthy warmth. The musk provides a soft, velvety texture, while patchouli contributes a rich, woody depth that lingers delicately on the skin. Together, these notes create a timeless and classic fragrance, distinguished by its refined balance and enduring appeal.
