The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Flâneur by 27 87 was launched in 2021 and created by perfumer Mark Buxton. This fragrance is a modern take on traditional perfumery, combining the crisp freshness of lime blossom and bergamot with the earthy warmth of vetiver and cashmere wood. The composition opens with bright aromatic notes that give way to a heart of almond and orris root, creating an intriguing contrast between sweetness and bitterness. The base layers in ambergris for a subtle, enveloping finish.

Flâneur captures the essence of exploration and urban wanderlust, embodying the spirit of someone who moves through city streets with ease, noticing every detail along the way.

How to wear it

Given its moderate longevity and sillage, Flâneur is best enjoyed in layers. Start with one spray to allow the bright top notes to shine, then add a second pass after 30 minutes for a more balanced experience throughout the day.

Mark Buxton

The blind-test prodigy

Mark Buxton, born in England and raised near Hamburg, entered perfumery almost by accident: at 21, a German game show challenge to identify 600 perfumes by scent alone caught the attention of Haarmann & Reimer, who offered him a place in their Paris training program.
