Obsidian Perfume by French Avenue is a 100ml Eau de Parfum unisex fragrance built on smoky resins, bright citrus and creamy amber. Dark, elegant and quietly commanding, it is a cool-weather scent for anyone who wants depth without shouting.
Fragrance Profile
Obsidian opens with a sparkling burst of aldehydic notes, grapefruit and bergamot — a crisp, effervescent start that feels clean and almost metallic before the resins arrive. It is a bright doorway into a very dark room.
The heart is where the fragrance finds its character: myrrh, jasmine and labdanum create a resinous, floral core that is both ancient and modern, evoking incense-laden temples and sophisticated soirées. Explore more oriental perfumes if this style of smoky sweetness appeals.
- Top Notes: Aldehydic Notes, Grapefruit, Bergamot
- Heart Notes: Myrrh, Jasmine, Labdanum
- Base Notes: Vanilla, Amber, Tonka Bean
The base is a deep, creamy blend of vanilla, amber and tonka bean, leaving a warm, sensual trail that feels like cashmere on the skin. The sweetness never turns sugary — it stays resinous, smooth and grown-up.
The Experience
Wearing Obsidian is like wrapping yourself in a luxurious black velvet cloak. It feels powerful, mysterious and effortlessly sophisticated, with the aldehydic opening giving way to smoky resins and florals before vanilla and amber soften the edges into a comforting, seductive aura.
Longevity is long-lasting, and the projection is generous without being overwhelming — this is a scent people notice when you move past them rather than one that fills a room from the doorway. It is not a wallflower fragrance; it is a statement of refined taste.
When to Wear
Obsidian thrives in autumn and winter, and on cool spring evenings when the air carries a chill. Its depth makes it ideal for special occasions such as date nights, galas and formal events, while the smooth drydown keeps it wearable for office wear and dinners with friends.
This unisex fragrance suits anyone who loves bold, resinous scents with a touch of sweetness, and it is a natural choice for those who appreciate the complexity of designer favourites but want something more unique and affordable. For colder months, pair it with the rest of our winter perfumes.
