The Story

Le Parfum Lumière by Elie Saab, launched in 2021 and crafted by Francis Kurkdjian, offers a radiant bouquet of white florals intertwined with citrus freshness and woody warmth. The composition opens with mandarin orange and ylang-ylang, bringing an invigorating brightness that soon gives way to the heart notes of jasmine sambac and tuberose, creating a lush floral blend. Patchouli and amber anchor this fragrance with their earthy sweetness, while musk adds an animalic depth that grounds the composition in sensuality.

Application Tips

Le Parfum Lumière is best applied close to skin for a more intimate experience. The citrus top notes are fleeting, so allow it an hour to reveal its full floral and woody character. This parfum concentration ensures longevity throughout the day.

Francis Kurkdjian portrait
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.
