L'Homme À la Rose by Maison Francis Kurkdjian is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance that launched in 2020. Crafted by the master perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, this scent opens with a bright burst of Calabrian bergamot and litchi before settling into a heart of Bulgarian and Grasse rose, violet, and sweet pea. The base notes of musk and cedar provide a warm and grounding finish.
The fragrance is an exploration of contrasts: the freshness of citrus and the richness of roses, all anchored by woody undertones that create a sophisticated yet approachable aroma.

“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.
