Nuit Noor by Elie Saab, launched in 2016 and crafted by perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, is a fragrance that encapsulates the warmth of an intimate evening. The composition opens with honeyed sweetness and rose, creating a lush, enveloping effect that draws you closer. As it settles into its heart and base notes, patchouli and amber add depth and complexity, giving way to a richly balsamic finish that lingers long after it’s applied.

Application Tips
Given its strong sillage and long-lasting nature, one or two sprays are sufficient to make an impression throughout the evening. Let it settle for a few minutes before heading out, as the initial sweetness gives way to a more complex, warm spicy character that truly comes into its own.

“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.

The story behind the bottle.
The hushed intimacy of a candlelit dinner, where the air is thick with the scent of honey and rose, and every moment feels suspended in time.
