Frapin Parfums
Frapin Perfumes
Named for the year the Frapin family established itself in the Cognac region of France (continuing to make cognac to this day). 1270 was created by Beatrice Cointreau, great granddaughter of Pierre Frapin. Together with Frapin's Cellar Master, she sought to create a noble fragrance full of the scents surrounding the creation of cognac. 1270 is dry, rich, velvety and smooth. The notes underlying 1270 include flowers of the proud Folle Blanche (a grape nearly extinct from the region), the vineyard grass, the wine warehouse, the rich smell of damp earth in the cellars, the wood of new casks, the loamy smell of humus where the ancestral cognacs are stored. This masterful scent truly defines flowery prose.
