280 Floris, brought to life in 2010, sits firmly in the category of a feminine fragrance, falling within the east and floral families. This fragrance is the personal signature of perfumer Shelagh Foile. Released in eau de parfum.
Expect a moderate sillage — enough to be remembered, not enough to overwhelm. Expect high longevity: it stays close to the skin for hours. The home of this fragrance is the United Kingdom. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
It can be felt in close proximity, but does not attract the attention of those around you
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The composition of 280 evolves as a cohesive olfactory arc, where layers reveal themselves with precision and warmth. The creative approach of Floris is evident in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de parfum sets a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
In the first seconds you sense spicy sparkling top notes: Bergamot, Black Pepper and Clove.
At the core of development you meet Iris, Neroli and ylang-ylang holding a velvety rose-iris direction.
The accord architecture is driven by these accords: Citrus, Gourmet, Floral and Musc forming a compact and readable structure. Background accords such as Powdery and Spicy expand the olfactory volume in the background. The gender direction is feminine, which makes the scent profile easier to read. For persistence High suggests confident staying power.
From the group perspective the profile is anchored in Citrus, Spicy, Floral and Whiteflower. It also reaches into Gourmet and Musk.
Overall 280 sounds complete from start to finish — the start forms character, the central phase adds depth, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the fragrances best understood through real development.
