Vulcan Black Friday Edition by French Avenue Review: Notes, Profile & Where to Buy

Vulcan Black Friday Edition by French Avenue is one of MAPERFUME's best-selling fragrances, and once you see the note breakdown it's easy to understand why. Here's the full scent profile, the dupe conversation around it (if there is one), and where to buy it.

Vulcan Black Friday Edition — Notes & Scent Profile

  • Top Notes: Saffron, Apple, Cinnamon
  • Middle Notes: Leather, Rose
  • Base Notes: Papyrus, Patchouli, Musk, Moss

A bold, spicy-leather fragrance — a fiery saffron-cinnamon-apple opening, a leather-and-rose heart, and a dry, smoky, earthy leather-moss-patchouli base.

A limited special edition within French Avenue's Vulcan line. The line's other entries — Vulcan Feu and Vulcan Sable — are widely discussed as Stéphane Humbert Lucas dupes ("God of Fire" and "Sand Dance" respectively), but this Black Friday edition breaks that pattern and points at a different house entirely.

Is Vulcan Black Friday Edition a Dupe?

Vulcan Black Friday Edition is widely compared to Xerjoff Deified – Tony Iommi Parfum — multiple independent reviewers and sellers point to it as a close, budget-friendly alternative. As always with dupes, it's not a molecule-for-molecule clone, but if you love the original's profile, this is worth trying.

Performance & Best For

As a 100ml Eau de Parfum, this is built for real wear, not just a light spritz.

Best for: Fans of bold, smoky-spicy leather scents who want strong projection for fall and winter.
