Another great blind buy!

I've been looking for a boozy scent that suits me for a long time, and I found it with this one!

Realistic whiskey cola opening with tobacco, to which is added the undertone of dark chocolate cognac cherry and this is what I feel later on. In the long drydown, it becomes a cola, ambery, woody vanilla scent.

It's absolutely wearable, there's nothing offensive about it, and it won't have a bad effect for me either, but of course you have to love boozy scents. It also has a bit of a classic feel to it for me.

This will be great for me in the colder weather from autumn to spring, I already know... In addition, the performance is excellent!

This scent is addictive for me!

The olfattive reminiscence of 70s nightclubs

Vinyl is a sweet boozy fragrance from Franck Boclet's Rock and Riot collection, it starts with a remind of coca cola bottle candies but in adult version with whisky. Soon after, the smokiness of the tobacco and the amber join in, alongside a very hefty dose of tonka.
In the background, you have a woody base, reminscent of older wooden bar counters that have seen their fair share of split drinks. A very detectable Patchouli note in the dry down, projecting us even further into the groovy vinyl era.
It is a fun, unique, bold, quite masculine scent. Even though the dry down makes this perfume wearable, and more pleasing, but the dry down is not as unique as the opening.
If the notes look appealing to you, I’d recommend sampling it. It’s a fun one.

Great cinema! Or rather music?

for me, Vinyl is an absolute wow-effect and the find of the half-year. The name may be deceptive: the fragrance doesn't actually have any hint of vinyl, records or plastic in it. It's not that direct. It's very differently direct ))

Instead, it tells a story about the times when people met in nightclubs and at concerts in the 70s to enjoy music (while drinking and smoking cigars/cigarettes).

For me, it is one of the best fragrances with a strong and long-lasting (!) whiskey note and a smoky dried plum that I particularly love.

The scent reminds me strongly of chocolates that I remember from my Soviet childhood. They consisted of a prune half soaked in alcohol and a small piece of walnut inside, and were covered in a thick layer of dark chocolate. During my childhood, these chocolates justified their sky-high price by being considered particularly fine and precious and almost impossible to obtain. I can count the times I was allowed to enjoy these chocolates as a child on one hand. And of course, for me, they were all moments of great childhood happiness and a successful childhood life ))

Back then as a child, I would never have wished for tobacco with these chocolates.
Now as an adult I think "too bad, I can't smell any tobacco". Instead, I'm served a strong black coffee on a wooden tray. Perhaps tobacco has disguised itself in this way? Be that as it may, the coffee and wood, as well as the smokiness, counteract the sweet strength of the whiskey and the spiciness of the prune and give the whole composition support, balance it out and keep it from slipping into the realm of "too much". The base gradually moves away from the dried fruit and becomes softer, more rounded and vanilla-like. Some of the alcoholic sweetness develops into a very light, subtle note of dill pickle water. It's as if you've already partied halfway through the night and it's starting to make no difference what you drink. The dill pickle water is extremely volatile and subtle, not at all distracting, but adds something special to the whole mixture.

The alcohol note is also very present in the base. But this is no longer a sweet smell of freshly poured high-grade alcohol, but is more like the haze of a pub where everyone has been drunk for some time and the volume of the conversations has been competing with the volume of the music for this "some time"))
On one hand, Vinyl is without a doubt a direct gourmand. A wonderfully beautiful, spicy one, with lots of dried fruit and even more alcohol. And last but not least: with very good persistence / sillage.

on the other hand, if you think about its name and don't know the story of its inspiration, you could easily be tempted to interpret the directness of this fragrance in a completely different direction.
