Franck Boclet Absinthe is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015. Absinthe opens with Lavender, Italian Green Mandarin Orange, and Wormwood, settles into a heart of Rhubarb and Heliotrope, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Leather, Amber, and Vetiver. Franck Boclet's Absinthe carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

Absinthe is a deeply divisive scent; for some it's a unique, ever-changing green dream, for others, it's just a scrub-off. If you're after something truly different and for your own enjoyment, this could be your weird and wonderful match.

Scent Profile

Composition

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.

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with its unique, self-indulgent character, make it more suited for casual or personal enjoyment than formal settings. While it's considered year-round and day-appropriate, its distinctiveness might be a bit much for a conservative office environment.

About

Opens with a sharp, green herbal punch of wormwood and zesty Italian green mandarin, lifted by a classic lavender. As it settles, a sweet, almost creamy heliotrope emerges, intertwining with the tartness of rhubarb and more wormwood, avoiding the typical liquorice blast. The base dries down to a sophisticated blend of earthy vetiver, warm amber, and subtle leather, grounded by woody notes, creating an evolving, chameleon-like aroma.
