The Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud Eau De Parfum 70ml balances presence with restraint from the first moment: an exercise in modern refinement. Oud belongs to a marble palace engraved with gold, set under a dark-blue star-studded night. It's the fine sand of the capricious dune, a fragrant harmattan in the silence of the desert; the sensual atmosphere in perfumery. The composition draws on oud, elemi, saffron and cedarwood, and wears with an easy, self-assured balance. Maison Francis Kurkdjian is an easy place to start if the house is new to you, and a familiar favourite if it is not. Elegant, uncomplicated, and made to become a habit. Wear the Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud Eau De Parfum 70ml as an everyday signature, or keep it for the occasions that deserve it.

Key features

An eau de parfum concentration, which carries a higher proportion of fragrance oil for a deeper, rounder character on the skin.
Built around notes of oud, elemi, saffron, cedarwood and patchouli.
Sits in the woody family with a ambery (oriental) accent, so it feels familiar from the very first spray.
Expect roughly six to eight hours of wear, projecting confidently for the first hour before settling into a close, warm trail.
An ideal choice for evening wear and special occasions, and particularly at home in autumn and winter.

How to use

Spray onto clean, moisturised skin, as fragrance holds noticeably longer on hydrated skin.
Apply two or three sprays to the pulse points: the wrists, the base of the throat and behind the ears.
Let the opening settle on its own rather than rubbing your wrists together, which breaks up the top notes.
Refresh with a single spray later in the day, and keep the bottle away from direct sunlight and heat to protect the composition.
