Franck Boclet Vinyl is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2019. Vinyl opens with Lemon and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Whisky, Heliotrope, Tobacco, and Coca-Cola, and dries down to a base of Amber, Cedar, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Franck Boclet's Vinyl carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Vinyl is a bold, divisive scent for those who like their fragrances as expressive and boozy as a night out. It's a powerhouse with photorealistic whiskey and cola, but beware: where some find it addictive and unique, others are left with a synthetic, headache-inducing mess. Definitely not a blind buy.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

This extrait is a sillage beast, making it unsuitable for office settings where its strong projection would be overwhelming. Its boozy, sweet, and unique profile makes it a fantastic choice for dates and evening casual outings, though less ideal for formal events where subtlety is often preferred.

About

Vinyl kicks off with a fizzy, syrupy blast of whiskey and Coca-Cola, brightened by a hint of citrus. This boozy opening mellows into a warm, inviting heart where tobacco unfurls its dry, sweet character alongside a creamy vanilla. The base anchors the composition with earthy patchouli, woody cedar, and rich amber, leaving a lingering, confident trail.
