Maison Francis Kurkdjian fell in love with perfumes as a teenager. After attending the prestigious Isipca in Versailles, he created his first fragrance in 1993 under the Jan Paul Gaultier label. In 2001, after spending time in New York’s Quest International office, he opened his bespoke workshop. His self-named brand was established in 2009 with co-founder Marc Chaya. There are 42 perfumes in the collection.
