The story behind the bottle.
Amyris Femme by Maison Francis Kurkdjian was launched in 2012, capturing the essence of a woman's confidence through its blend of citrus and woody accords. The fragrance opens with lemon blossom and California orange, creating an initial freshness that is both crisp and vibrant. As it develops, amyris wood adds depth, grounding the scent with earthy warmth. Iris and vetiver bring a subtle complexity, while musk and amber provide a powdery, enveloping base. Francis Kurkdjian's signature touch is evident in the way these elements blend seamlessly, creating a fragrance that feels both modern and lasting.
Apply Amyris Femme to your pulse points for a lasting effect. The citrus top notes are bright but fleeting, so it's best to layer them over the earthy base notes that take time to bloom. This fragrance reads better close to skin than across a room, making it perfect for daytime wear.
