About This Perfume
Think spiced candy on a warm night. French Avenue 8th Wonder opens with candied apple, cardamom and pink pepper, then turns boozy in the heart with liqueur, date, davana and osmanthus absolute. The base is deep and resinous: amber, benzoin, labdanum, myrrh, patchouli and styrax. Sweet, spicy, leathery and a little smoky, it is a unisex Eau de Parfum released in 2025, with a rich warm-amber character.
It is a night-out scent through spring, fall and winter. Save it for evenings when you want something sweet and noticeable rather than office-safe.
It lasts a long time and fills a room. The community flags that it needs maceration, so let a new bottle rest for a while before you judge it.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: lovers of boozy, resinous, sweet-spiced scents for evenings.
- Sample first if: you are unsure about liqueur and date sweetness, since the community splits on this one.
- Skip if: you prefer light, fresh or understated fragrances.
Around $55.
