The story behind the bottle.
Special 127 by Floris was launched in 1890, a proof of the brand's enduring legacy since 1730. This fragrance opens with a bright citrus-aromatic blend of bergamot and petitgrain, which gives way to a heart of lavender, neroli, and geranium — creating an aromatic warmth that is both fresh and spicy. The composition then transitions into a base of rose, ylang-ylang, musk, and patchouli, adding depth with woody and floral notes without overpowering the initial freshness.
Special 127's initial freshness fades within an hour, so apply two sprays for a lasting effect. The woody base notes develop over time, making it ideal for daytime wear where its warmth complements the light of day.
