I often filter my french press cold brew after-the-fact with a paper filter to achieve this.

Isn't the paper filter supposed to strip flavorful oils? Which negates using a French press?

Probably. To be honest I just find it convenient to use a French press as a cold brew maker and first-pass filter, because it is IMO easier to keep clean than a nut milk bag or coffee sock.
