27 87 Mosaïque is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Mosaïque opens with Mandarin, Plum, and Clary Sage, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Ylang-Ylang, Honey, and Tobacco, and dries down to a base of Mate, Oakmoss, and Hazelnut Cocoa Spread. 27 87's Mosaïque carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

Mosaïque is a curious beast; a proper split decision from the crowd. Some absolutely adore its unique, daring blend of dark sweetness and earthy grit, while others find its unblended nature a challenging mess. Definitely one to try before you buy.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Also Works:
Casual Formal

Given its long-lasting performance and moderate sillage, Mosaïque is better suited for evenings and less formal settings where its unique depth can be appreciated. It's a bit too bold for the average office, but its intriguing blend makes it excellent for dates or special casual outings, particularly in colder weather.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Mosaïque kicks off with a juicy, dark plum and a bright mandarin, soon joined by a subtly aromatic clary sage. This fruity opening quickly melts into a complex heart where sticky honey and rich tobacco intertwine with earthy patchouli and the exotic creaminess of ylang-ylang. The base grounds it all with a unique hazelnut cocoa spread note, underscored by damp oakmoss and the dry, tea-like mate, creating a distinctive, almost disjointed character that evolves on the skin.
