The story behind the bottle.
Absolue Pour Le Soir 2024 by Maison Francis Kurkdjian is a new fragrance that captures the essence of an elegant evening. Launched in 2024, it is crafted by perfumer Francis Kurkdjian and opens with invigorating cumin oil, which contrasts beautifully against its heart notes of honeyed rose and labdanum. The base of vanilla and amber creates a rich, warm embrace that lingers throughout the night. This composition balances freshness and sweetness, creating an ambience that is both inviting and captivating.
Apply two sprays directly on pulse points for optimal longevity. The cumin note is bright but fleeting, so aim for a more concentrated application initially to allow the honeyed rose and vanilla base notes to develop fully over time.
