The first perfume in the collection was conceived as a tribute to the origins of the Frapin family, who settled in the Charente in 1270. After a long day of cognac tasting, the head of the family Beatrice tried her cognac a different way – she splashed a little on the back of her hand to smell the drink before tasting. So successful, everyone noted the incredible aroma and so the fragrance to honour the Frapin’s family legacy of cognac came to life. This fragrance is a distillation of gourmand pleasures that will turn your skin into a sensuous feast. An ode to the cognac that the Frapin family are world renowned for.

HOW IT WEARS
1270 is an Eau de Parfum which should give you anywhere from 6 – 8 hours worth of longevity on the skin. The rich opening notes of dried fruits, spices & nuttier tones combine effortlessly with the subtle dry down of vineyard blossoms & sweet precious woods, to create a subtle, enduring fragrance that will see you gently through to the end of it’s wear.
LORE LOVES
We love the way 1270 embodies the rich history from which this scent derives it’s name. Like a delicious stroll through the vineyards of olde France with a glass of cognac in hand. It is one of those rare scents that most people are drawn to, a favourite here at Lore for very good reason!
