Description

Sónar by 27 87 is an olfactive fragrance for men and women launched in 2019. The nose behind this creation is Jacques Huclier. The top notes are pink pepper and bergamot; the heart notes combine beer/ale, neroli, and saffron; and the base notes reveal a metallic accord, vanilla, and woody notes.

A sparkling sweet-citrus floral opening that fades quickly, evolving into something plasticky. Someone mentioned ‘burnt rubber’… yes, it could be. A sweet, strange burnt rubber. At some point, I even detect what seems like bitter almond (though it’s not listed). The neroli plays a pre-eminent role, but embraced by saffron. It’s true that a very timid hint of beer bitterness appears, but if it weren’t for me recognising it as a declared note, I wouldn’t have discovered it on my own. The metallic aspect underpins everything; it’s there like a tray holding the rest of the products, providing a base without shining. It is truly a strange and difficult fragrance to describe. It could be the aroma floating in a factory environment due to some production process, or the smell emanating from vinyl manufacturing, that mix of plastic, solvents and adhesives. The trail reaching me from my wrist is basically that: a sweet burnt rubber, but not unpleasant. Honestly, I’m not sure if I like it or not, but I think I wouldn’t wear it. I believe its season of use could be all year round except summer, as I suspect with heat the neroli note could become excessive. I also couldn’t say if it’s masculine, feminine or unisex (to me, it leans feminine). What I am clear about is that you need the right personality to wear it. Without a doubt, do not buy it blind.
