About
APOM by Maison Francis Kurkdjian is a Oriental Fougere fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. APOM was launched in 2024. The nose behind this fragrance is Francis Kurkdjian. APOM, an acronym for 'A Part of Me', is a genderless fragrance by Maison Francis Kurkdjian. Originally introduced as separate fragrances for men and women in 2009, APOM has been reimagined by perfumer Francis Kurkdjian to combine the best elements of both versions. Inspired by the perfumer's visit to Lebanon, APOM is a flowery amber fougere built on a classic structure with a modern twist. The luminous top of orange blossom gives way to the beauty of aromatic lavender, leading to an alluring base of vanillic amber, comforting white musk, and the sunny smile of ylang-ylang.
