Vinyl

Vinyl by Franck Boclet is a bold, boozy fragrance that evokes the atmosphere of 1970s nightclubs—thick with tobacco, sweet syrup, and a sticky, industrial quality. It opens with sharply sweet whiskey and cola notes, reminiscent of a chalky, cola-huskiness that some describe as knotty or narcotically inviting. The heart lingers with milk chocolate and vanilla, some spiced warmth, and a dusty patchouli base. The fragrance is not refined—it’s heavily textured, with tobacco and vanilla dominating the dry-down, creating a weighty, intimate aura that lingers long. While some find it a tragic ghost of a more balanced fragrance, others adore its raw, unapologetic bite. The depth doesn’t fade quickly; it’s long-lasting, especially on cooler days or under dim light, and quietly lingers when you least expect it.
