I believe THC is still illegal in France. So it's mostly convenience - a certain base of weed users don't want to buy from dealers, or want the security of a well produced product - an illicitly produced THC vape can be dangerous [1][2].

CBD (particularly the terpene infused ones) fill that gap.

Edit: Should also mention there's a market for the effects of weed, without the 'high'.
