Franck Boclet Freedom is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2019. Freedom opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, Cumin, and Rosemary, settles into a heart of Tiare Flower, Vanilla, Tonka Bean, and Passionfruit, and dries down to a base of Musk, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. Franck Boclet's Freedom carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Freedom isn't for the faint of heart; it's a divisive beast. Some find its herbal, boozy complexity bold and captivating, a true scent of self-expression. Others find it harsh, even stuffy, likening it to furniture polish.

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.

Given its strong opening and 'heavy' nature mentioned in reviews, this isn't an everyday office scent. It shines in more intimate or purposeful settings where its demanding character can be appreciated, suitable for a confident date night or a formal event seeking to make a statement.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Freedom opens with a lively, aromatic burst of basil, rosemary, and tangy mandarin, quickly deepened by a hint of cumin's earthy spice. The heart reveals a surprising twist with tropical passionfruit and creamy tiare flower, swimming in a rich, boozy rum and vanilla concoction. This leads to a dense, mossy base, grounded by patchouli and a soft musk, creating a thick, sweet, and somewhat powdery drydown that feels both vintage and daring.
