French Avenue Enigma Deux is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Enigma Deux settles into a heart of Oud and Tonka Bean, and dries down to a base of Amber and Vanilla. French Avenue's Enigma Deux carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

A solid, approachable dupe of Angel's Share, Enigma Deux offers a softer, creamier take on the boozy gourmand. It's a crowd-pleaser for those who like their sweetness dialled up and their oud well-behaved, though some might find the performance a bit too fleeting.

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.

About

Imagine a warm vanilla custard tart, gently infused with a subtle hint of exotic oud. Enigma Deux opens with an inviting tonka bean, swiftly joined by a creamy vanilla and rich amber, creating a sweet, comforting gourmand. The oud note is present but reserved, lending a refined, slightly woody depth without any harshness. It settles into a powdery, warm embrace that's undeniably cosy and slightly flirtatious.
