L'Eau Couture by Elie Saab was launched in 2014 and crafted by the renowned perfumer Francis Kurkdjian. This floral fragrance is a harmonious blend of citrus, fruity, and nutty notes, with magnolia and orange blossom at its heart. The composition opens with calabrian bergamot, giving way to green almond and vanilla, creating an intricate blend that is both sweet and warm. It embodies the elegance and sophistication for which Elie Saab is known.

Application Tips
Apply L'Eau Couture to pulse points for a warm embrace that lasts throughout the day. The sweet and nutty notes settle into the base after about an hour, so allow it time to develop fully on your skin.

“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.
