27 87 Hakuna Matata is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025, created by Rodrigo Flores-Roux. Hakuna Matata opens with Broom, Bergamot, and Banana, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Honey and Labdanum. 27 87's Hakuna Matata carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

A truly polarising scent, Hakuna Matata is either a joyful, tropical banana and honey dream or a nauseating synthetic nightmare. This one's definitely not a safe blind buy, but if you're brave enough, it promises a unique and memorable ride.

About

Opens with a cheeky, bright rush of banana and fresh bergamot, a playful prelude to the full Hakuna Matata experience. As it settles, a sweet, golden honey accord takes centre stage, woven expertly with the creamy white florals of orange blossom and jasmine. The base is an inviting embrace of warm honey and labdanum, leaving a comforting, lasting impression long after the initial banana high fades.
