In 2009, renowned perfumer Francis Kurkdjian and fragrance house Co-founder and President Marc Chaya came together to create the sensual and multi-facetted landscape of olfactory expression embodied in Maison Francis Kurkdjian. The brand's fragrance collection is designed to represent a fragrance wardrobe that captures myriad facets of emotions, while also evolving the traditional luxury French perfumery with a contemporary view. The brand's unique personality is fueled by the creative genius of Kurkdjian, who is celebrated globally for his precision and imaginative approach to perfume-making and is fostered by the Maison's enchanting but precise principles of purity, sophistication, timelessness, and reinvented classicism.
