Description
Royal Blend is the fragrance that started French Avenue’s Royal Blend range, released in 2023 for women and men. It opens on cognac warmed by cinnamon, with ripe plum bringing a dark, juicy sweetness to the first few minutes.
The heart turns softer and drier. Iris lends a powdery, almost suede-like feel while myrrh adds a resinous edge. Over time it settles into a smooth base of vanilla, tonka and sandalwood, sweet and creamy without losing the gentle spice from the opening.
Inspired By
Royal Blend is widely compared by wearers to Kilian Angels’ Share, the original 2020 release. Both share cognac, cinnamon, tonka, vanilla and sandalwood. Royal Blend leans fruitier and more powdery thanks to its plum, iris and myrrh. French Avenue does not name an inspiration.
The comparison refers to scent profile only. Royal Blend is French Avenue’s own composition in its own bottle and packaging. Scent Limited is not affiliated with or endorsed by Kilian Paris, and all brand names belong to their respective owners.
