The Story

Oud Silk Mood Extrait de Parfum was launched in 2013 by Maison Francis Kurkdjian and is a creation of the house's founder, Francis Kurkdjian. This Oriental fragrance for women blends the richness of oud with the delicate sweetness of rose, creating an interplay between warmth and freshness. The composition opens with green and fresh spicy notes that cut through the floral heart, leading into a base of woody and leather accords that anchor the scent in earthy depth.

Application Tips

Apply one to two sprays for a balanced experience — the fresh spicy notes fade quickly but leave behind a lingering warmth. This fragrance is best worn in cooler weather or during evening hours when the base notes can fully bloom.

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.
