Description

Wandervogel by 27 87 is an aromatic fragrance for men and women. Launched in 2016, this composition is signed by nose Shyamala Maisondieu. Its olfactive structure unfolds with top notes of mint, marine accords, and shiso (purple mint); a heart of fennel, anise, and white flowers; and a base of sand and musk.

The fifth fragrance in the set, continuing the brand’s ‘curiosities’ theme. The opening is very volatile and fresh, with a sharp burst of vivid mint that’s almost like mouthwash but not overpowering; soon fennel embraces it, adding sweetness. This fennel is realistic, as if you were holding a sprig in your mouth while walking through the countryside. After an hour and a half, the freshness fades, leaving a soft floral and creamy musk close to the skin. Projection is low. Visually, it feels fresh and clean, transporting me to a Mediterranean stroll among fennel bushes on a crisp day. In English, they say it smells like toothpaste; I understand the reference but I’m not entirely convinced. It’s youthful and relaxed for warm weather. I like it, but as with the previous ones, I don’t see the price justified unless it’s for a very specific profile. EXPANSION: Worn at work one day, it’s fennel with a mentholated twist and nothing else. I don’t notice any evolution. It’s pleasant, and if it cost €30 instead of €155 for 87ml, I’d buy it. I confess I haven’t had much luck with Shyamala Maisondieu: they’re pleasant but don’t evoke any special feeling in me. The longevity is almost that of a cologne.
