The bustling energy of an industrial city at dusk, where the metallic hum of machinery blends with the subtle floral notes of a nearby garden.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Sónar by 27 87 is a composition that marries the metallic and tuberose notes with aromatic and woody accords, creating an intriguing contrast. Launched in 2019 and crafted by Jacques Huclier, this fragrance opens with pink pepper and bergamot, adding a touch of freshness to the blend. The inclusion of beer/ale introduces an unexpected layer of complexity, while tuberose and saffron add depth and warmth. The metallic notes give it a modern edge, setting Sónar apart from traditional fragrances.

How to wear it

Apply Sónar to pulse points for a moderate longevity and sillage. The metallic notes project well initially, but allow time for the warm spices and tuberose to emerge. This fragrance is best suited for an evening out where its complexity can truly shine.
