Kurky by Maison Francis Kurkdjian is a Floral Fruity fragrance that was launched in 2025. Created by the renowned perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, this scent opens with a burst of peach and raspberry, evoking the sweet, juicy essence of freshly picked fruits. The heart introduces gummy candies and fruity notes, creating an almost edible sweetness that is both playful and inviting. As it settles into its base notes of white musk and vanilla, Kurky becomes a warm, powdery embrace that lingers on the skin, offering a comforting finish.

Application Tips
Apply Kurky to pulse points for a warm embrace that lasts through the day. The fruity top notes are bright but fleeting, so layer it with the muskier base notes for sustained warmth. It's best enjoyed close to skin rather than across a room.

“My creations are an invitation to choose the scent that suits you daily, because I like the idea that each woman and man can express a part of themselves through perfume.”
Maison Francis Kurkdjian was born in 2009 from the encounter between Francis Kurkdjian, a renowned perfumer with scores of successful creations to his name, and Marc Chaya, Co-founder and President of the fragrance house. At only 24, Francis Kurkdjian composed his first perfume, "Le Male" by Jean Paul Gaultier, an international best-seller and game-changer of its time. Instead of relying on a very promising start to his career, he decided, as a precursor, to explore new possibilities and give olfactory creation a new artistic dimension. In keeping with his visionary outlook, in 2001 he set up his tailor-made perfume workshop, against the general tendency of perfume democratization, while constantly putting his know-how and sensibility at the service of the greatest fashion designers (Rick Owens, Hedi Slimane, Riccardo Tisci, Alber Elbaz or John Galliano), as well as the most iconic houses (Dior, Guerlain or Saint-Laurent). From 2003, artists like Sophie Calle, Christian Rizzo or Sarkis called on him to compose his first olfactory compositions - the starting point of his quest to break down the boundaries between different fields and the senses. In 2008, he was named Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres.
