Vulcan Baie
Vulcan Baie by French Avenue is an unisex extrait de parfum from 2024 in the budget price tier. It opens with bergamot, rosemary and blackcurrant, moves into basil and raspberry and dries down to amber, musk, patchouli, sandalwood and frankincense. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Rosemary Sharp, camphorous herb. Bracing and clean, borders on medicinal.
- Blackcurrant Tart, dark and slightly catty. Adds bite to florals.
Heart
- Basil Peppery herb with an aniseed lift. Culinary but wearable.
- Raspberry Tart, jammy and slightly fuzzy. Very popular in modern sweet scents.
Dry-down
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Frankincense Bright, peppery, church-like resin. Lifts and cools a fragrance.
