ALT. FRAGRANCES Farouche No. 29 Extrait de Parfum 60ml — Long-Lasting Citrus-Vanilla Cologne

Farouche No. 29 by ALT. FRAGRANCES is a concentrated extrait de parfum that pairs bright Calabrian bergamot with warm vanilla to create a long-lasting, bold citrus-vanilla cologne for men.

Designed to deliver a memorable signature scent without designer prices, Farouche No. 29 opens with an energetic citrus burst that settles into a smooth, vanilla-accented depth. This extrait de parfum concentration means fewer sprays are needed for full-day wear, and the blend is crafted to be versatile enough for daytime settings, evenings out, or special events. ALT. FRAGRANCES emphasizes cruelty-free and vegan formulations, producing a fragrance that aims to feel modern, confident, and approachable.

What does Farouche No. 29 smell like right after application?

On first spray you’ll notice a clear, vibrant citrus note led by Calabrian bergamot that gives the fragrance immediate brightness and lift. The top moments are lively and attention-grabbing, designed to make a strong first impression before the heart unfolds.

• Dominant top: Calabrian bergamot — fresh, sparkling citrus
• Immediate character: energetic and zesty
• Spray advice: one to two sprays for close-quarters, two to three for longer sillage

How does the scent develop over hours and where does the vanilla appear?

As the bergamot softens, subtle warm vanilla emerges to round the composition and add creamy sweetness without masking the freshness. The vanilla provides balance and a comforting base that smooths the transition from bright top notes to a more grounded dry down.

• Mid-phase: gentle sweetening from vanilla undertones
• Dry down: warmer, slightly gourmand-leaning base
• Longevity: concentrated extrait strength for extended wear

How long will Farouche No. 29 last and how should I apply it?

Formulated as an extrait de parfum, Farouche No. 29 offers extended longevity compared with lighter concentrations; many users experience persistent scent through most of the day. Apply sparingly at pulse points—wrists, neck, and chest—to get balanced projection without overpowering.

• Concentration: extrait de parfum for enhanced staying power
• Application tips: 1–3 sprays depending on desired projection
• Best practice: apply to clean, moisturized skin for optimal longevity
